This magnificent 6.5-room villa, in a contemporary Mediterranean style, is located in the best sunny hillside lake view location in the villa district of Brione sopra Minusio. The garden area on the 808-square-meter property offers plenty of sun, tranquility, and absolute privacy. The building stems from a time when space was not a scarce commodity and generosity was not a foreign word. Building substance, form language, and functionality are united here. Despite the considerable dimensions, the property appears reserved and discreet.
Come in. A garden path paved with natural granite slabs leads you into the property. Here on the ground floor garden level is the spacious entrance area. Upon entering, the first thing that catches your eye is the splendid slightly curved staircase made of solid marble, which richly adorns the foyer and makes an important statement – this property plays in the Champions League. On this level, the room program is very diverse and special. Here is a room (usable as a bedroom/hobby/studio); a separate toilet. A private area for your esteemed guests includes a 2.5-room apartment with an open living-cooking area, bedroom; bathroom with shower/WC; covered seating area with access to the picturesque garden.
The highlight on this level is the indoor pool. It represents the absolute highlight of this exquisite property - a heated pool measuring 8 x 4m and 1.5m deep with a counter-current swimming system, shower/WC, changing room, relaxation/fitness room. Simply slide the glass elements to the side – the pool landscape merges with the fantastic lake-mountain panorama. Pure holiday feeling 365 days a year!
On this floor, a laundry room and technical rooms are also discreetly integrated.
Climb the marble stairs to the upper floor. Here is the heart of the house. The impressively large living area with fireplace welcomes you with its loft-like living atmosphere. A magnificent kitchen equipped with the latest electrical appliances and a dining room with elaborately custom-made glass cabinets is a pure eye-catcher. Pastel walls and elegant gray granite create a natural ambiance.

Barbecuing, welcoming guests, having sociable conversations with friends, or enjoying a glass of wine for two.
