Located on the idyllic slope of the left Lago Maggiore shore, in the characteristic village of Piazzogna (Gambarogno), this inviting, single-story residence is found. The overriding feature of this property is the wide and completely unobstructed lake view, which is permanently protected for all future by a large, extensively terraced and adjacent plot of land. As you enter the house, the scenery captivates you: the view leads from the entrance directly down the hallway through a classic arch into the heart of the property – into the generously proportioned living room with high ceilings, fireplace, and adjacent kitchen. The floor-to-ceiling windows were designed to let in maximum light and perfectly frame the spectacular panorama of the lake and the opposite lights of Locarno and Ascona. Whether cooking in the functional kitchen or relaxing in the cozy seating area in front of the stone fireplace – the scenery of Lago Maggiore and the majestic Tessin mountain world remains your constant, all-pervading companion. With two bedrooms, one bathroom, a separate guest toilet, and an additional flexible gallery level for guests, the house offers the perfect layout for a family or as an exclusive holiday home. Another highlight in the outdoor area is the spacious outdoor seating area, which serves as an extended living room in the summer and offers the perfect stage to celebrate the Mediterranean Tessin lifestyle in absolute privacy. Practical details such as a wooden cellar located directly below the terrace and a storage room at the entrance provide a lot of comfort in everyday life. However, this property impresses not only with its current state but also with its exceptional and legally secure development potential. The generous plot reserves and the advantageous building zone allow for a flexible expansion of the property: an addition of a second story to the existing building is legally possible, which massively increases the living space and raises the panoramic view to a new level. Furthermore, the adjacent plot of land offers the ideal place for the construction of a private swimming pool or an elegant infinity pool with a direct view of the water. Parking is also not a problem: in addition to two comfortable carport spaces, an additional parking space is available. Accessible via a quiet side street, you acquire more than just an immediately habitable home here – you secure a value-stable asset with maximum design freedom at one of the most sought-after viewpoints in southern Switzerland.

The charming village of Piazzogna is located on a sun-kissed natural terrace about 360 meters above Lago Maggiore and stands for untouched nature, rural tranquility, and a spectacular panoramic view. While the tourist centers on the opposite lake shore are very lively, Piazzogna has preserved the unexcited character of southern Switzerland and is considered an ideal retreat away from the crowds. The protected location gives the village an exceptionally mild, Mediterranean microclimate, which makes the region extremely fertile. The most famous landmark is the nearby Botanical Garden Gambarogno (Parco botanico) [Botanical Garden Gambarogno (Parco botanico)], which houses one of the largest collections of camellias and magnolias in Europe on over 17,000 square meters. With around 400 inhabitants, Piazzogna offers a warm village community and a fine infrastructure with restaurants and shops in the village center. A dense network of hiking trails starts right in front of the doorstep. Despite the idyllic tranquility, the accessibility is excellent: the lakeside towns with their beaches and boat docks are only a few minutes away, while the urban centers of Locarno, Ascona, and Bellinzona can be easily reached in a short drive.
