At a glance

Description

We are selling in Cadro, in the heart of the historic center, a historic villa with 7 rooms on 4 levels, partially renovated, with a large garden and parking spaces. The villa is located in the Cadro fraction, on the north side of the urban area of Lugano, in a residential and sunny position. More precisely, the property is located along Via dei Circoli, on the edge of the historic center of Cadro, vis-à-vis with the Church of S. Agata, with direct access from the communal road quickly connected to the main road towards Lugano and Val Colla. The villa, of historical origin and with a sober and elegant architectural character, is distinguished by a regular facade with symmetrical openings and refined decorative details along the upper cornice. The property preserves the charm of the early 20th-century homes, enriched by architectural elements that enhance the solidity and harmony of the proportions. The surrounding garden, flat and well-maintained, frames the property with tall trees, flowering shrubs, and green spaces that guarantee privacy and a high quality of life outdoors. The setting is further enriched by the proximity to the parish church and the presence of an ancient votive column in the lawn in front of the house, which confer an authentic and suggestive character to the context. The ground floor has been completely renovated (2017) and transformed into a complete apartment with living room, kitchen-dining room, WC-shower with laundry area, and a double bedroom. The external facades and the roof have also been renovated. The first floor, composed of 5 rooms, is to be completely renovated, as well as the attic with exposed beams, which offers a large open space perfectly usable as a living area. The semi-basement consists of 2 cellars, a technical room, a laundry room, and a space currently used as an office (heated, with windows). This floor has its own entrance at garden level. Access to the property is guaranteed by an automated gate between two columns and a paved forecourt that allows comfortable parking. A driveway leads to the area behind the building with a garden area and an outbuilding (storage, studio, hobby room, office, ...). Availability to be agreed upon.
