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.

In a hillside setting at Cassina d'Agno, minutes from the centre of Lugano, Villa Eden stands on an enclosed plot of 2,840 m² laid out as a private park. Camellias, palms and mature trees screen the estate on every side, while behind it the hillside rises in terraced vineyards. The character is Mediterranean, the impression that of a secluded place the city reaches within minutes and never intrudes upon. Three independent buildings, each with its own access: the main villa, a guest house with private entrance and garage, a carefully restored stone rustico. An arrangement that allows guests to be received, private working quarters to be established or one of the units to be let, with no overlap between them. In the villa, the living room with fireplace flows into the dining area and opens onto the terrace and the three loggias of the south front, where light enters throughout the day. On the same level, the principal bedroom with en-suite bathroom and dressing room, and a second bedroom. The lower level, facing the garden, holds three working rooms, a glazed conservatory and the service quarters, with scope to create a self-contained apartment. The garden lies level around the heated pool, sheltered entirely from view. An approved conversion project covers the villa's entrance level, and the plot carries a development reserve permitting the main building to be extended. An estate fully liveable today, with its next stage already consented.
