Living By The Lake

Splendid villa designed in the 1960s by architect Franco Ponti, located in Caslano within the exclusive residential complex called ’Piccola Venezia’, overlooking the picturesque lagoon of Lake Lugano. The residences of this prestigious complex have been conceived to harmoniously integrate with the surrounding landscape, offering beautiful views of the lake and nature. The grounds, connected by bridges and walkways, create a unique atmosphere reminiscent of the charm of Venetian canals. The property we present stands out for its exclusive character and is set in a large plot of approximately 2,500 m², enhanced by a well-maintained private garden with an outdoor pool, private dock, internal boat space, and private boat mooring, in addition to direct access to the lake. The land also offers further building potential of approximately 250 m² of GFA, making the property particularly interesting from a development perspective. The villa is spread over two levels with a total area of approximately 430 m², characterized by charming exposed stone walls and large panoramic windows that enhance natural light and continuity with the surrounding landscape. The main floor hosts a separate steel kitchen, a refined dining room, and a spacious living room with a dramatic fireplace. The large floor-to-ceiling windows lead to the terrace with a view of the lagoon, creating a perfect continuity between indoors and outdoors. An elegant mezzanine completes the living area, ideal as a relaxation space. On the same level, there are also three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The lower floor features a spacious master suite with an en-suite bathroom and access to the garden, a cozy lounge with a bar perfect for social moments, and a study with direct access to the terrace that opens onto the magnificent garden. The property is completed by an outbuilding, technical rooms, and a garage with 5 covered parking spaces, as well as 5 external parking spaces and an additional 5 uncovered parking spaces within the property, ensuring ample space for residents and guests.
