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.

The main level is defined by generous proportions and a clear sense of spatial continuity. The living areas unfold as a sequence of reception, dining and everyday spaces, shaped by wide panoramic openings and direct access to the terraces. Natural light moves through the interiors throughout the day, while the view remains a constant presence across the lake, the city and the surrounding mountains. The separate kitchen, designed with clean lines and equipped with high-quality appliances, offers a discreet and highly functional setting for both daily use and private entertaining. Recently renovated, the apartment combines selected materials, refined finishes and contemporary technical solutions. Wood floors, luminous surfaces, bespoke cabinetry and distinctive design elements create interiors of substance and character, with the scale to accommodate important furniture, books and art. The same level also includes a laundry room, which may be adapted as a study or additional bedroom, as well as a guest bathroom and cloakroom. The upper floor is reserved for the sleeping quarters, with spacious bedrooms, en-suite bathrooms, dressing areas and private outdoor access. Each room maintains a direct relationship with light and landscape, offering a quiet, private dimension above the centre of Lugano. An independent area with its own bathroom, kitchen and separate entrance completes the layout, providing autonomy for guests or staff. The property is eligible for purchase as a secondary residence (Swiss citizens and residents). The property includes a domotic system, alarm system, two cellars and four mechanised parking spaces. Domus Pax also offers a shared fitness area. Its position allows the city to be experienced with rare immediacy: the lake, the station, restaurants, boutiques and cultural addresses are all close at hand, while the apartment preserves the privacy, height and composure of a refined urban retreat.

Situated in one of Lugano's most central neighborhoods, this 2.5-room apartment enjoys a location of exceptional convenience: Via Nassa, the lakeside promenade and the full range of city amenities are all within a few minutes' walk, while swift access to the motorway ensures efficient connections to the canton's principal routes. Fully renovated in 2010 and offered entirely furnished, the residence is defined by a clear, functional layout. The entrance opens into the living area, where bespoke cabinetry has been designed to articulate the volumes with precision; from here, the view extends across the city, the lake and the distinctive profile of Monte Brè, a striking backdrop that lends depth and natural light to the interior. The bedroom features integrated built-in wardrobes, while the separate, well-organised kitchen completes the plan. The bathroom is fully appointed and includes a private washer-dryer column. Air conditioning throughout and a video intercom system ensure immediate everyday comfort. A windowed cellar, shared laundry facilities and an outdoor parking space complete the property. The property is eligible for purchase as a secondary residence. A residence that interprets urban living with balance and discretion, perfectly connected and particularly suited as a refined pied-à-terre from which to experience Lugano with ease.

In the centre of Melide, just a short walk from the lakeside and the main local amenities, the new Residenza La Piana is taking shape. This six-unit development has been conceived to provide privacy, comfort and a high standard of living. The travertine façade and the carefully considered construction details give the residence a composed, contemporary character that sits naturally within its refined surroundings. Within this setting, we present a 3.5-room apartment located on the first floor. The entrance opens onto the living area, where the living-dining room and the fitted kitchen extend towards a generous covered terrace of nearly thirty square metres, designed to be enjoyed throughout the year. The sleeping area includes a primary bedroom with walk-in wardrobe and en-suite bathroom, a second bedroom suitable also as a study, and an additional bathroom with shower. The interiors are designed to ensure aesthetic coherence and a high level of comfort, featuring quality finishes and energy-efficient systems. The property also includes a private laundry-cellar on the basement level and a covered parking space on the ground floor. Its central location allows for easy access to schools, public transport, shops, medical practices and the lakeside, offering day-to-day convenience in a discreet residential context. Melide also benefits from fast connections to Lugano, the motorway and international schools. Completion is scheduled for the end of July 2026.
