Description

Renovated stone rustic loft-style house in the heart of the Verzasca Valley In one of the most picturesque and sun-filled hamlets of the Verzasca Valley lies this charming stone rustico, nestled within a small village of authentic character where cobbled alleys and carefully restored historic houses still tell the story of the valley’s traditions. The building, an ancient stone rustico that has been completely transformed into a bright three-level loft, has undergone a thorough renovation designed by architect Dazio, highly regarded for his ability to reinterpret the traditional stone houses of the Vallemaggia. His work is known for a distinctive and refined style that enhances original elements while integrating contemporary solutions. The rustico is located in the upper part of the hamlet, in a position that ensures peace and privacy. The entrance is through a small gate leading to a pleasant outdoor area paved with natural stone — a space that immediately conveys an atmosphere of relaxation and holiday living while remaining in the heart of the village. A glazed entrance area also provides a practical space for storing outdoor furniture during the winter months and serves as a relaxing corner during the summer. Inside, the house is organized as a loft with open spaces that flow naturally into one another. The main floor, corresponding to the central level of the home, hosts the living area: a fully equipped kitchen opens onto an airy and welcoming living room enhanced by a stove that creates a warm and convivial atmosphere. A round dining table invites moments of sharing, while a guest bathroom is also located on this floor. A light staircase leads to the upper attic level, a space with an almost fairy-tale character. The high wooden roof, rugs, windows framing the surrounding landscape, and a corner with a sofa bed and armchairs create the perfect environment for reading, relaxing, and enjoying the quiet of the valley. Descending to the lower floor leads to the sleeping area, composed of a bright and generously sized bedroom with a large custom-built wardrobe. The furnishings are carefully selected and refined, contributing to a serene atmosphere. This level also features the main bathroom with a shower. A washing machine has been discreetly integrated into the space, offering additional convenience without compromising the elegance of the interiors. The renovation was carried out using high-quality materials and with great attention to detail, preserving the original charm of the rustico while enhancing its history. The open layout creates a harmonious continuity between the different levels, making this home a truly special place to live. Parking spaces are available about 100 meters from the rustico — a distance that allows easy access while preserving the tranquility and authentic charm of the historic hamlet. Asking price: CHF 550,000 Secondary residence. Availability: To be agreed with the owners.
