Description
This magnificent 6.5-room villa, designed in a contemporary Mediterranean style, is situated in an unobstructed panoramic lake view location in the exclusive villa district of Brione sopra Minusio. The garden on the 808-square-meter property offers plenty of sunshine, tranquility, and absolute privacy. The construction comes from a time when space was not scarce, and generosity was common. Building substance, design, and functionality are harmoniously combined here. Despite its considerable dimensions, the property appears restrained and discreet.
Welcome! A natural granite pathway leads you to the property. Here on the ground floor, you'll find the spacious entrance area. Upon entering, the first thing you'll notice is the splendid, slightly spiral staircase made of solid marble, which generously adorns the foyer and makes a significant statement - this property is top-class. This level has a diverse and special layout. It includes a room (usable as a bedroom/hobby/studio), a separate toilet. A private area for your esteemed guests comprises a 2.5-room apartment with an open living and kitchen area, bedroom, bathroom with shower/WC, and a covered seating area with access to the picturesque garden.
The special feature on this level is the indoor pool. It's the absolute highlight of this exquisite property - an 8 x 4m large and 1.5m deep heated pool with counter-current swimming system, shower/WC, changing room, relaxation/fitness room. Simply slide the glass elements to the side, and the pool area merges with the fantastic lake and mountain panorama, offering a year-round holiday feeling.
Also discreetly incorporated on this floor are a laundry room and technical rooms.
Ascend the marble stairs to the upper floor. Here lies the heart of the house. The impressively large living area with a fireplace welcomes you with its loft-like ambiance. An outstanding kitchen equipped with state-of-the-art appliances and a dining room with custom-made glass cabinets are pure eye-catchers. Pastel walls and elegant grey granite create a natural ambiance.
On this floor, there's also another bedroom with an associated bathroom equipped with a shower, toilet, and double vanity.
A particular highlight is the terrace adjoining the living and dining area, complete with a covered lounge. An awe-inspiring natural backdrop of forested mountain ridges, the endless azure of Lago Maggiore, and spectacular sunsets unfolds before you... By now, you'll know this is where you want to be. Whether it's barbecuing, entertaining guests, engaging in lively conversations with friends, or enjoying a glass of wine.
The house and indoor pool are heated by an air heat pump. A photovoltaic system for power generation is also installed.
