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.

Just a few steps from Via Nassa, the historic city center, exclusive shops, and the picturesque lakefront, stands Residenza Bristol, one of Lugano's most iconic buildings. Set in a commanding position, this residence is renowned for its refined and elegant architecture. Originally built in 1902 as a 5-star hotel, Residenza Bristol became a symbol of Lugano's affluent and cosmopolitan lifestyle for many decades. In 1990, the building underwent a complete renovation, transforming it into a collection of exclusive apartments, each unique in style, location, and prestige. The unit for sale, located on the ground floor, is a duplex apartment with a surface area of approximately 230 sqm. It enjoys a pleasant view of the lake and a beautifully maintained garden in front. Its excellent orientation ensures bright interiors and a warm, relaxing atmosphere. Two 20 sqm/each covered loggias offer additional outdoor space that can be enjoyed all year round. The area is quiet and private, while still being just steps away from the city center. The property, currently divided into a 3.5-room duplex and a 2.5-room apartment, can easily be combined to create one large apartment. Once combined, the layout could be as follows: Ground floor: entrance hall with cloakroom, separate kitchen, spacious living/dining area with access to the covered loggia with lake view; additional cloakroom, three bedrooms – one with access to the loggia – and a bathroom (bathtub). Upper floor: master bedroom with en-suite bathroom (bathtub); one additional bedroom, and a bathroom (shower). The property also includes two cellars and two indoor parking spaces (CHF 100,000 each). Thanks to its prime location, close to all main services and the train station, this apartment is the ideal solution both as a primary residence or as an exclusive second home.
