Elegant 3.5-room apartment with terrace and balcony in quiet area
In Balerna, a municipality 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 apartment building, where the apartment is located, consists of only 8 units and is situated in a very quiet and peaceful area, away from the chaotic traffic, but still very comfortable 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 day area, so you can go out and take a breath of fresh air at any time of the day. The day 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 good 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 inside and outside and offering an additional space to be used in daily life. The entrance is well-organized and valued by a very spacious built-in wardrobe, 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 and offer ample space for furnishing and personalizing the rooms, both for those who want a comfortable bedroom and for those who need a second, versatile room that can be used as a children's room, guest room, or study. The bathroom, completely renovated, is windowless and equipped with a modern shower and integrated washing machine, which is very practical and careful and perfectly meets the needs of daily life. Particularly interesting 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 simply building a gypsum board partition, which makes the property very flexible and adaptable to different housing needs. The apartment is offered fully furnished with modern furniture that has never been used and is available free of charge upon request, which represents an added value that allows you to immediately enter a space that is already set up and harmoniously furnished. In the attic, there is a mansard room of about 25 m², a valuable auxiliary room to create a very large storage room or a room that can 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, while in 2016 the bathroom was completely renovated and the windows were replaced; the apartment building, although old, is in perfect maintenance condition, with an electrical system that meets the standards, with PVC shutters that completely darken, and with a fiber optic cable already laid in the apartment for 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 insulating glass. The flooring consists of ceramic tiles throughout the apartment.
