In Balerna, a town in the Mendrisiotto region, strategically located between the Italian border and the city of Lugano, we offer for sale an elegant 3.5-room apartment. The building that houses the apartment, consisting of only 8 units, is located in a very quiet and peaceful area, away from chaotic traffic, yet extremely convenient and well-served, with the train station and public transport nearby. By car, the Italian border is just 5 minutes away and Lugano is about 25 minutes away. The apartment has both a terrace accessible from the living room and a balcony accessible from the daytime area, allowing you to go outside and take a breath of fresh air at any time of the day. The daytime area of the apartment is distinguished by its particular brightness, with the living room and dining room facing the terrace and favored by the south/west exposure, which guarantees excellent natural light during most of the day and makes the rooms welcoming and pleasant to live in. The kitchen, renovated in 2015 and equipped with a dishwasher, has a practical window door that leads to the southeast-facing balcony, creating a pleasant continuity between indoors and outdoors and offering an additional space to be exploited in everyday life. The entrance is well-organized and valued by a very spacious wall cabinet, ideal for storing jackets, shoes, and accessories in an orderly manner and keeping the house always in perfect balance between comfort and functionality. The two bedrooms have generous dimensions, offering ample breath for furnishing and personalizing the spaces, both for those who desire a comfortable master bedroom and for those who need a second, versatile room to be used as a children's room, guest room, or study. The bathroom, completely renovated, is windowed and equipped with a modern shower and integrated washing machine, a combination that presents itself as particularly practical and careful, able to perfectly meet the needs of daily life. Of particular interest is also the possibility, thanks to the large dimensions and conformity of the rooms, to easily transform the apartment into a 4.5-room apartment by inserting a simple plasterboard partition, a solution that makes the property very flexible and adaptable to different housing needs. The apartment is offered completely furnished with modern furniture, never used, available free of charge upon request, an added value that allows you to immediately enter a space already prepared and harmoniously furnished. In the attic, there is a mansard of about 25 m², a valuable ancillary room to create a very large storage room or an environment to be organized according to one's needs. The property, originally built in 1960, presents itself in good condition thanks to significant interventions carried out between 2015 and 2016: in 2015, the kitchen was renovated, in 2016, the bathroom was completely renovated and the windows were replaced; the building, although dated, is in perfect maintenance condition, with an electrical system that meets the standards, with PVC shutters that completely darken, and with fiber optic cables already laid in the apartment to enable a high-performance internet connection. The heating is provided by an efficient centralized system with oil and radiators, supported by good aluminum and wood windows with insulated glass. The flooring is made of ceramic tiles for the entire apartment.
