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.

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.

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.

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. Surrounded by vineyards and rolling greenery, the property enjoys a profound sense of tranquility while remaining closely connected to the cultural and economic vitality of the Lugano Region. From the house and its upper levels, the view opens southward across a magnificent panorama of Lake Lugano and the surrounding mountains, the water forming a luminous and ever-changing backdrop that accompanies the estate throughout the seasons. The origins of the residence date back several centuries. The property underwent an important restoration in 18th century and was comprehensively renovated in 1984, followed by further updates between 2006 and 2021. Each intervention was carried out with particular care for the historic structure, preserving its architectural character while introducing contemporary systems and modern comfort with discretion. Set within approximately 13,000 sqm of beautifully planted grounds and offering around 555 sqm of living space, the estate unfolds within a secluded, park-like landscape shaped by mature trees, ornamental plantings and a remarkable variety of botanical and fruit species that thrive in the mild climate of southern Ticino. The result is a rich and layered garden environment with a distinctly Mediterranean character. 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.
