A spectacle between water and sky (29)
A refuge for every seasonThis Mediterranean-style architectural villa dominates the Lago Maggiore from above - built parallel to the sun-drenched slope, it rests on massive granite foundations and ten-meter-high steel pillars.Distributed over four staggered levels, the house opens up to nature, space, and light through large floor-to-ceiling windows. The spacious living and dining area impresses with a ceiling height of up to 3.75 meters. A fireplace, dramatically embedded in the glass wall, becomes the warm heart between sky, water, and fire.The kitchen offers an open view of the lake, pool, and terrace - every detail is ideally oriented towards the landscape, the sun, and the lake. An elegant pool stretches along the terrace and seems to flow seamlessly into Lago Maggiore - as if the house were connected to the water.The sleeping floor floats like a suspended loggia above the world - with a walk-in closet, wellness area, and breathtaking panorama: the islands of Brissago, the mountains of Gambarogno, Bellinzona to the east, and to the south, the view opens up to Italy.A Mediterranean garden, gently nestled on the slope and shaded by plane trees, stretches to the access road - an ideal place for relaxed moments or convivial barbecues with friends.Every room offers the Lago Maggiore like a living picture. A place that is not only built but composed. A house between sky, water, and light.Highlights: Architecture and landscape in harmonious composition Free view of the lake from almost every room Maximum exposure to light, lake, and nature Dominant hillside location with a view of Lago Maggiore Large living and dining area with fireplace in the glass wall Design kitchen with a view of the lake, terrace, and pool Sleeping floor with walk-in closet and wellness area Breathtaking panorama Visual connection between pool and lake - fluid transition Mediterranean garden on a gentle slope 3 parking spacesThe municipality of Brissago is located on the northern shore of Lago Maggiore, southwest of Ascona, on the border with Italy. Brissago is known primarily for its islands and botanical garden, where about 1,500 different plant species thrive thanks to the mild climate, including palms, bamboo, eucalyptus, kiwi, and bananas. The garden was created in 1885 by Baroness Antoinette de Saint Léger and expanded from 1927 by the later owner of the islands, the wealthy businessman Max Emden.
