Villa Pierina was born as the highest expression of someone who has made it in life. At the beginning of the 20th century, Francesco Avanzini, a successful emigrant from Curio to Argentina, decided to commission the construction of Villa Pierina. The villa had to tangibly represent 'the spirit of successful return' to the homeland of for one who had achieved wealth and status in distant foreign lands. At that time, architect Giuseppe Bordonzotti, highly respected in Ticino for his Art Nouveau style of eclecticism, was contacted to take charge of the project. What followed was an intense exchange of correspondence of projects, variants, observations between Ticino and then thriving Argentine Capital of Buenos Aires. At that stage, the client's desire for the building to reflect 'American Long Island Grandeur' often clashed with architect Bordonzotti's desire for local architectural elements to prevail. Finally in 1909, construction work on Villa Pierina began. Completed in 1910, the villa is named after Francesco Avanzini's daughter. Purchased later by a wealthy German family, the building was entirely and tastefully renovated with noble materials, restoring its due 'grandeur'. A prestigious Art Nouveau, turn of the century, country estate which is listed as a cultural asset, Villa Pierina dominates the village of Curio with its regal elegance. Entirely renovated in 2012 using the noblest and most luxurious materials, the villa, with its four floors characterized by large, bright rooms, stands out as a residence of great distinction. High ceilings, large chandeliers, herringbone walnut parquet flooring, inlaid fireplaces, a discrete internal lift, and perfectly restored original frescos are just some of the prestigious elements of Villa Pierina. Its sunny south-eastern exposure and ample large terraces, offers an enchanting view of nature, the village and Lake Lugano. The park houses a large, heated swimming pool with sunbathing area and the villa is accessed via a majestic curved raised tree lined driveway which adds further significance to this magnificent historic estate. Today, Villa Pierina, one of Ticino's standout famous buildings, is waiting for a new owner to continue its prestigious history.

In Muzzano, on the slope facing the Gulf of Agno, in a private setting among greenery, we offer for sale a villa built in 2004 on a plot of 800 m², arranged over several levels connected by an internal lift. The architecture is composed of stacked volumes clad in grey panels, with a concrete base that follows the slope and terraces carried on slender columns. The house is entered from the garage level through a courtyard of 16 m², where an olive tree grows on slate gravel. From here, stairs and lift rise to the living levels. The day level is a single space of 66 m² in which kitchen, dining area and living room unfold beneath continuous glazing. Light enters from several sides: from the panoramic terrace of 26 m² beside the living room, from the 10 m² terrace on the kitchen side, and from the inner courtyard of 26 m², with garden and ornamental pool, which brings greenery into the house. On the bedroom level, the main bedroom of 17 m², with a 4.5 m² dressing room and an 8 m² bathroom, opens onto the landscape. The level also includes a second bedroom of 13 m², a study of 26 m² on the stairwell, a balcony of 17 m² and a terrace of 11 m². The lower level has an atelier of 30 m² and a study of 15 m² with shower room, both opening onto the garden and suited to use as an office or guest room. On the entrance level are the double garage, a storage room of 13 m², the laundry room and two outdoor parking spaces.

The property is a few minutes from the centre of Lugano and the international schools, and may also be purchased as a secondary residence.

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.
