Description
Elegant 5,5-room apartment offering generous living space, extensive terraces, a private garden and an appealing penthouse-like character in a privileged setting in Ruvigliana, one of the most sought-after and exclusive residential areas of Lugano. The property enjoys a dominant position with beautiful panoramic views over the lake, the bay of Lugano, the city and the surrounding mountains, within an especially exclusive environment characterized by elegant residences and prestigious villas, highly appreciated for its residential quality, privacy and proximity to the city centre.
Set within a well-maintained residence of only 5 units, the apartment offers approx. 225 m2 of living space and was created by combining two apartments that are now perfectly integrated, while retaining two independent entrances, allowing for great flexibility of use.

If desired, a fourth bedroom could be created with limited intervention. All rooms have direct access to the terraces, which offer a total surface of approx. 70 m2.
In a particularly sheltered position lies the beautiful private garden of approx. 200 m2 with pergola, stone bench and stone table - ideal for enjoying outdoor living with a high degree of privacy. The property also includes a cellar, a garage box, one outdoor parking space and a beautiful shared outdoor swimming pool.
A rare combination of residential comfort, privacy and panorama above Lugano.
Municipality Description
Lugano, the economic and cultural centre of the Canton of Ticino, is a highly regarded city offering an exceptional quality of life, a mild climate, an attractive lakeside setting and a natural connection with Italy. Appreciated internationally also for the stability, security and discretion typically associated with Switzerland, Lugano has increasingly confirmed its role as a highly desirable residential destination. Among its most exclusive residential areas is Ruvigliana, on the southern slope of Monte Brè - a particularly sought-after location enjoying magnificent panoramic views over the bay of Lugano, the city, the lake and the surrounding mountains. Long considered one of the most desirable addresses in which to live, the area has seen the development of numerous high-quality properties in recent years, further reinforcing its exclusive residential character. Despite its peaceful and panoramic setting, Ruvigliana remains perfectly integrated into the urban fabric: bus stops, the funicular railway, schools, services, hotels and the pleasant Lido San Domenico are all close by, while Lugano city centre can be reached within minutes. The city offers modern infrastructure, an important academic centre with Università della Svizzera italiana and a rich cultural life, with the cultural center LAC Lugano Arte e Cultura internationally recognised for concerts, performances and exhibitions. Lugano is also very well connected both to Zurich and to Milan Malpensa Airport, reachable in about 45 minutes. Lugano has approximately 68’500 inhabitants and lies at 273 metres above sea level.
