4.5 Pianoterra In Residenza Storica

In the center of Lugano, at Via Luigi Canonica 9, Residenza 1890 features a 255 m² penthouse located on the fourth and top floor of a historic building undergoing complete renovation. Designed in 1910 by architects Ziegler & Corsini, the building retains its character through the restoration of the facade and distinctive elements, including stone frames and wrought iron balconies, enhanced by new architectural lighting.

The penthouse, the only apartment on the floor, stands out for spaces shaped by the roof’s geometry, which become an integral part of the interior architecture. The skylight windows open onto the roofs of the historic center, creating a direct connection with Lugano’s urban landscape.

The living area is designed as a continuous space where the kitchen, dining room, and living room interact through contemporary materials and details. Natural tones, textured surfaces, wooden elements, and integrated lighting define the project’s style, while the herringbone oak flooring adds character to the penthouse spaces.

The internal layout includes:
- Three bedrooms
- Four bathrooms
- Three walk-in closets

These offer generous and functional spaces. The interior design pays special attention to finishes and details. Bathrooms feature stone cladding, wall-mounted bronze-finish faucets, indirect lighting, and walk-in showers, while the walk-in closets have custom solutions.

The apartment also includes a private cellar and two garage parking spaces, available separately and not included in the sale price.

This residential offering combines the architectural character of a historic building with contemporary interiors, spacious areas, and a prime location in the heart of Lugano.
