This prestigious villa is located in Ghiffa, in the picturesque hamlet of Valdora, and is known as the Watchmaker’s House due to its original circular shape and the ingenious system that originally allowed the building to rotate according to solar exposure. The mechanism was later deactivated to enable the implementation of advanced insulation and energy-saving solutions, fully preserving the original structure and design philosophy. Nestled in the tranquility of greenery and just a few steps from Villa Volpi, the property enjoys an extraordinary view of Lake Maggiore and a strategic location: close to Cannero Riviera, Cannobio, Stresa, and Baveno, about 15 minutes from the A26 motorway, 60 minutes from Milan Malpensa International Airport, and 20 minutes from the Swiss border. Access to the main floor is via a pedestrian walkway leading to the entrance, equipped with a custom wardrobe. From here, a bright open space opens up, consisting of a designer island kitchen, dining area, and living room with an adjustable wood stove. The spaces are designed to enhance natural light and lake views, offering an elegant and contemporary atmosphere. Behind the living area is a semi-separated study area. The floor is completed by a master bedroom, a bathroom with a whirlpool tub and chromotherapy, and a refined custom-made circular walk-in closet. On the ground floor, which is not underground, there are accessory rooms for technical and functional use, with the possibility of customization according to the future owner’s needs. The complete renovation of the main floor was finished in 2022 and involved systems, finishes, and technologies, with particular attention to energy efficiency and living comfort. The villa is equipped with a modern high-efficiency heat pump system that powers underfloor heating, ducted summer air conditioning, and domestic hot water production. Climate control is fully automated and remotely controllable with independent regulation for each room. Notable finishes and features include natural oak floors, high-performance thermo-acoustic triple-glazed windows, motorized solar shading, integrated LED lighting, an alarm system with video surveillance, a video intercom with remote management, and a central vacuum system. Outside, the property is surrounded by a large private garden and a spacious courtyard area ideal as a relaxation zone, solarium, or space dedicated to socializing. The land extends over approximately 8,000 sqm and includes a portion of natural woodland sloping down to the lake, reaching a private beach of over 50 linear meters, subject to a state concession, with a mooring buoy already installed. Access to the villa is guaranteed by a private dirt road of about 100 meters, ensuring maximum privacy and tranquility. The only work not yet carried out concerns the facade cladding, for which the technical structure is already prepared and deliberately left customizable by the buyer. The Watchmaker’s House is an exclusive residence where architecture, nature, and innovation coexist in perfect harmony. A unique property designed for those who wish to live immersed in the beauty of Lake Maggiore in a reserved, authentic, and technologically advanced setting.
Situated in Ghiffa, this location offers direct access to Lake Maggiore’s scenic waterfront and nature. The nearby Verbania-Pallanza train station provides convenient regional connections, while Milan Malpensa Airport is accessible within 60 minutes by car. Local dining and cultural sites in Ghiffa and surrounding towns enhance lifestyle options.
