Description
On the sunny and panoramic hill of Ghiffa in Cargiago, a small, very quiet hamlet, we offer a splendid detached stone villa. The villa dates back to the beginning of the 20th century and preserves the typical exposed stone style characteristic of the most beautiful villas of that period on Lake Maggiore. The excellent sun exposure allows you to enjoy the light from early dawn until late in the evening. The lake view is also one of the most appreciated as, in addition to the Borromeo Gulf and Stresa, the view is open to the whole town of Verbania in the direction of Switzerland. The villa is surrounded by 1000 square metres of land, 300 square metres of which are flat adjacent to the living area of the house. On the other side of the garden above the imposing structure of the three garages, it is possible to build a wonderful large swimming pool with solarium and beautiful lake view. The villa was completely renovated and extended about 20 years ago using top-quality materials and all the installations are in perfect condition.
The ground floor consists of entrance hall, designer kitchen in perfect condition, bright living room with large windows overlooking the Borromeo Gulf. From here there is access to the covered porch where one can dine by the garden. On this floor we also find an elegant bathroom with shower and a laundry room.
Going down to the basement floor we find a room used as a living room/bedroom and two other rooms that can be used as a cellar and storage rooms. On the first floor of the villa we find the master bedroom with panoramic lake view balcony and walk-in wardrobe, a large bathroom in bisazza mosaic with bath tub and large shower; on the same floor we find the second bedroom overlooking a large covered terrace with lake view. Possibility of closing off the terrace with glazing to create a further bedroom/bathroom or living room. A beautiful original stone staircase of the period leads to the attic where a bedroom has been created, a loft over the main bedroom with walk-in wardrobe and a small study.
The property has three garages plus a large porphyry courtyard where additional guest cars can be parked.
This villa was built with great taste and refinement and represents a unique object on the market of its kind.
