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.
