    House with pool and garden Lugano (Switzerland)

    Set on its own hillside, five minutes from the centre of Lugano, Villa Giada occupies a commanding and secluded position. Its own woodland wraps the house on every side and sets it apart from the rest of the hill, while the view ahead opens onto Lake Lugano and Monte San Salvatore. The setting is quiet and self-contained, the house living off its own garden and the light that crosses it from one side to the other. The property extends over roughly 6.2 hectares of land. Around the house, the landscaped garden of more than a thousand square metres accompanies the portico and the outdoor areas; beyond it, the owned woodland forms a natural belt that shelters the residence and secures its privacy over time. It is a holding that belongs entirely to the villa and sets it apart from its surroundings. The entrance opens into a full-height atrium. Symmetrical side staircases, high ceilings and marble floors establish the scale and proportion of the interiors from the outset. From here the house unfolds across the main living floor, arranged around an open-plan living room of roughly one hundred square metres: damask marble flooring, a central fireplace and continuous glazing that draws the garden inside. The same level holds a study with a fireplace facing the grounds, a TV room, a formal dining room and an eat-in kitchen with double ovens and a wine cellar, opening directly onto the portico and the outdoor dining areas. The upper floor is given over to rest. Two suites, each more than thirty square metres, have a bathroom with shower and whirlpool tub, a bespoke walk-in wardrobe and a private terrace. From the terraces, turned towards the lake, the view descends over the water and the landscape, in the stillness particular to this position. The lower level gathers the wellness spaces. An indoor pool with glazed walls faces the garden, alongside a sauna and a gym; a third bedroom with bathroom, a vaulted wine cellar, the laundry and the plant rooms complete the floor. Here too natural light takes the lead, carried by the glazing that opens onto the greenery and dispels any sense of being below ground. Built in 2014, the property combines generous spaces with current technical provision: underfloor heating with a heat pump, triple-glazed windows, photovoltaic panels, integrated climate control and a security system. Outside, the landscaped garden, the portico and several private parking spaces complete an estate made to be lived in year-round, a short distance from the amenities and the leading international schools of the Lugano area.

    Within the verdant setting of Cademario, this architect-designed residence overlooks both branches of Lake Lugano and the Malcantone landscape. Its elevated position and surrounding nature define a secluded and tranquil environment that nonetheless remains well connected to the city: Lugano can be reached in approximately twenty minutes, while road access and public transport links are located nearby. Designed in 1953 by architect Alberto Camenzind, a significant figure in Swiss architecture of the second half of the twentieth century, and renovated between 2012 and 2013, the property extends across approximately 400 sqm arranged over two levels. The interiors comprise five bedrooms, five bathrooms, study, office, fitness area and flexible rooms adaptable for guests or personal pursuits such as atelier, studio or home office. Access is via a private driveway leading to the parking area with eight spaces, three of which are covered. The interiors feature carefully selected materials and refined finishes, offering generous, well-proportioned volumes suited to a variety of residential uses. A garden of approximately 1,200 sqm extends the living dimension outdoors in continuity with the natural surroundings; a separate agricultural plot of over 20,000 sqm is available upon request. An outdoor swimming pool overlooking the panorama completes the property. An independent survey conducted on site also identified particularly favourable environmental and bioenergetic conditions. Measurements carried out with specialised instruments indicate values notably above commonly accepted neutral reference parameters throughout both the interior spaces and the garden, with higher peaks recorded in areas suited to contemplation and no detectable electromagnetic disturbance. While not of determinative real estate relevance, this constitutes an ancillary aspect that offers an additional perspective on the relationship between architecture, landscape and experiential quality of habitation.

Its mature garden, generous outdoor areas and favourable southern exposure define the setting. Built in 1987, the residence displays a Mediterranean-inspired architectural language, articulated through covered terraces, loggias and outdoor spaces overlooking the private park.

    House with garden and terrace Sorengo (Switzerland)

    ust outside central Lugano, in the residential setting of Sorengo, this early twentieth-century villa occupies a secluded position within approximately 2,469 m² of private grounds. Mature planting, open lawns and views towards the lake create a notably private environment within easy reach of the city, Franklin University Switzerland and TASIS. Built in 1910, the villa extends across four levels and offers approximately 510 m² of living space. Its original architectural character remains visible in the entrance hall, central staircase, arched windows and wood-panelled salon with fireplace. The main floor accommodates the reception rooms: a generous living room, dining room, wood-panelled salon with fireplace, separate kitchen and guest bathroom. The upper floor comprises the principal suite with en-suite bathroom and private terrace, two further bedrooms and an additional bathroom. The attic level provides further bedrooms and a versatile room, while the lower floor contains leisure and service areas, with the potential to create a self-contained unit. A separate building used as an annex and a garage for two cars complete the property. The estate underwent several improvement works between 2015 and 2019. From a planning perspective, plot no. 140 lies within a residential zone. Article 28 of the implementing regulations provides for a maximum building height of 10 metres and a maximum floor area ratio of 0.6. At least 40% of the developable plot area must remain free of buildings and, as a rule, at least half of this portion must be landscaped as green space. Applied to the entire plot, the floor area ratio results in a theoretical maximum gross floor area of approximately 1,481 m². The effective remaining development capacity must be established through a dedicated technical assessment, taking into account the floor area already utilised, the required setbacks, access arrangements and any further applicable restrictions. The scale of the land therefore allows for different architectural directions, ranging from the preservation and contemporary reinterpretation of the existing villa to a broader development project, subject in each case to the necessary technical reviews and approvals. Available for use as a second home.

    Hidden among the gentle hills of Bioggio, just minutes from Lugano, this remarkable country residence, Casa Barnino, offers a rare balance of heritage, privacy and understated elegance.

Arrival at the property follows a private driveway that leads to a small forecourt in front of the house with five parking spaces, some sheltered beneath a pergola covered with kiwi vines. This simple and authentic feature reflects the rural origins of the residence and its long relationship with the surrounding landscape. Casa Barnino embodies a refined dialogue between historic craftsmanship and modern comfort. Expansive windows frame sweeping views of the surrounding landscape, illuminating the living spaces and highlighting original details such as natural stone staircases and door niches.The living room, anchored by a fireplace, flows naturally into the kitchen, crafted in classic country style with warm wooden textures and subtle Mediterranean elegance. The adjoining dining area, with a second fireplace, forms a cozy and inviting heart for everyday living and entertaining. Bedrooms provide serene retreats, some opening onto gentle vews of Lake Lugano, while bathrooms reflect careful attention to materials and light: one in Verde Spluga green stone echoes the natural surroundings, while another frames a quiet view toward a mature oak tree, connecting interior and landscape. Each space transitions naturally to the next, blending historic character with contemporary refinement to create a home defined by light, serenity, and timeless elegance. Outdoor living forms an essential dimension of the estate. A portico courtyard with a large fireplace, kitchenette and dining area creates a natural setting for long summer evenings and relaxed gatherings. The grounds also include a swimming pool, a traditional boccia court, a fountain and three natural biotopes that enrich the ecological diversity of the garden while creating secluded corners for rest and contemplation. The property also includes an authentic wine cellar, a reminder of the long-standing viticultural tradition of the region, which has shaped the landscape of southern Ticino for generations. Within its expansive gardens, Casa Barnino offers a rare sense of place, where history, landscape and daily life unfold in quiet continuity. The property also offers potential for further expansion. Second homes are permitted for Swiss nationals or those holding a B permit.
