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 large living and dining area impresses with a ceiling height of up to 3.75 meters. A fireplace, dramatically inserted into 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 merge seamlessly into Lago Maggiore - as if the house were connected to the water.The sleeping area 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 laid 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.

Brissago is known mainly for its islands and the botanical garden, where about 1500 different plant species, including palms, bamboo, eucalyptus, kiwi, and bananas, thrive due to the mild climate. The garden was created in 1885 by Baroness Antoinette de Saint Léger and expanded from 1927 by the later island owner, the wealthy businessman Max Emden.
