Elegant period villa with garden and terraces in the heart of Balerna
In the center of Balerna, we propose the sale of a prestigious historic villa of great charm, a character house dating back to 1854, enriched with numerous original details and a wide and versatile distribution of spaces. The property represents a rare solution for those who desire an exclusive residence, a representative villa, or a valuable property to be further enhanced. The villa preserves the authentic flavor of the era thanks to architectural elements of great personality, including partially preserved and/or restorable original floors, marble fireplaces from Arzo, and a suggestive frescoed salon. The villa develops on three levels, with a wide and well-articulated internal distribution: Ground Floor: The access from the portal on Via San Gottardo leads to a very large and elegant main entrance, a guest room, three multi-purpose rooms that currently serve as a cellar or storage, and the technical room with a boiler. First Floor: Through a very elegant, historic staircase, you reach the upper floors, where residential areas of remarkable size unfold. The floor opens onto an available room that leads to a large living room, a smaller, cozier living room, a dining room with a frescoed ceiling, a habitable kitchen with a large, elegant fireplace embellished with Arzo marble, a study, and a bathroom with a shower. Second Floor: The highest level of the villa opens onto an available room that serves as the entrance hall of the floor and is divided into a second large living room, a second habitable kitchen, a master bedroom, two additional bedrooms, a bathroom with a shower and a bathtub. Outside, the property is distinguished by a plot of 1,042 sqm with very interesting and well-articulated spaces, including a lovely garden and several terraces. Two terraces are located on the first floor of the building, and two more are on the higher levels of the property, accessible via external staircases, up to the covered parking spaces located next to the vehicle access on Strada Regina. The presence of exits and accesses between Via S. Gottardo and Strada Regina contributes to further enhancing the uniqueness of the ensemble. The property is complemented by several accessory volumes, including the two/three covered parking spaces, the storage room, and the greenhouse located on the external, green terraces of the villa. The heating is gas-powered, with heat distribution through radiators. Since 2008, various maintenance and renovation works have been carried out, including the replacement of the boiler, the renovation of the electrical system with RASI certification, the roof, the facades, the aluminum shutters, as well as regular ordinary maintenance to keep the property in good condition and perfectly habitable. A charming house, rich in history and atmosphere, ideal for those seeking a non-conventional home in Balerna with generous spaces and a pronounced architectural identity.
