Description
Beautiful, quiet, and sunny building plot located at the edge of the picturesque village center of Melano, a charming village at the foot of Monte Generoso.
The location is privileged: just a few steps from the lake with the Lido Comunale (public beach) and a short distance from Lugano and Chiasso, both reachable within 15 minutes.
Melano offers all essential services, including shops, restaurants, a bank, a pharmacy and schools, ensuring comfort and quality of life.
The property spans approx. 10’188 m2, of which approx. 2’410 m2 are flat and buildable (gross floor area of approx. 1’446 m2), while the rest is wooded, adding a natural touch to the setting.
A preliminary project outlines the creation of 11 residential units, including the restoration of the historic Casa Spinedi from 1883 (3 apartments), an accessory building (2 studios), and the construction of a new building with 6 apartments.
Additionally, the plan includes an underground garage, providing convenience and functionality for future residents.
This is a unique opportunity in a location that perfectly combines nature, history and services.
Municipality Description
Melano is a pleasant lakeside village located on the shores of Lake Lugano at the foot of Monte Generoso and today forms part of the municipality of Val Mara. The area offers a highly appreciated quality of life thanks to the presence of all main services, good transport connections to Mendrisio and Lugano and its proximity to the Italian border. The origins of Melano date back to at least the year 799, when the village was mentioned as Mellano. During the Middle Ages it served as an important lakeside harbour, and the municipal coat of arms depicts the lake, the Castellaccio - whose ruins are still visible today - and the Nisciölin, a small dormouse symbolising the local territory. Today Melano is also known for its popular public lido with a sandy beach as well as for its commitment to sustainable development and energy efficiency. The setting combines historical character with practical everyday living, making the village an increasingly sought-after residential location. Melano, since 2022 part of the municipality of Val Mara together with Maroggia and Rovio, has 1,538 inhabitants and is situated at an elevation of 282 metres above sea level.
