Residence Orion Gaia — Residenza DI Nuova Costruzione Sopra Il Lago DI Lugano

RESIDENCE B2 — GAIA
Gaia is an exceptional new-build garden residence within Residence Orion, a limited collection of only four private homes on a secluded hillside in Vernate, above Lake Lugano.
Offering approximately 164 m² of base interior space, the residence is arranged as a carefully considered 4.5-room home with three bedrooms, including a principal suite with a private bathroom and walk-in wardrobe, an additional bathroom, a guest WC and an open-plan living, dining and kitchen area.
Full-height glazing opens the principal living spaces towards Lake Lugano and the surrounding mountains, bringing natural light deep into the interior and creating a continuous relationship between the home, the terrace and the garden.
Gaia is distinguished by the largest private outdoor domain within the Residence Orion collection. A 70 m² terrace extends directly from the principal living spaces, creating a generous setting for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxation. Beyond it, a 163.22 m² private garden provides a more secluded connection to the surrounding landscape. Together, the terrace and garden offer more than 230 m² of private exterior space, giving Gaia a distinctive villa-like character.
A private outdoor jacuzzi further enhances the outdoor living experience, while a 20 m² private cellar and controlled direct lift access complete the residence. Two parking spaces are assigned to the residence and are sold separately from the advertised asking price.
Designed for owners who value privacy, greenery and generous outdoor living, Gaia combines the atmosphere of a contemporary hillside home with the comfort, security and discretion of a newly built, low-density development comprising only four residences.
