Description
Beautiful property located in the heart of the historic village centre of Arogno, comprising a spacious historic palazzo, a charming and sheltered garden and - on the opposite side of the garden - an independent rustic house with a private courtyard and a large entrance gate.
An ensemble of great charm that preserves the authentic character of the village’s historic architecture.
Arogno, a small yet lively village, offers essential local amenities including a bakery with grocery shop, several welcoming restaurants, a municipal library and a fascinating theatre dating back to the early 20th century, all contributing to a well-kept and vibrant village life.
Set in the tranquility of the historic village centre, the property enjoys evocative views of the surrounding landscape and offers generous living spaces with large, well-proportioned rooms.
The entire property requires renovation and represents a rare opportunity to enhance an architecturally valuable ensemble.
The roofs, renewed and thermally insulated just over 20 years ago, are in good condition and provide a solid basis for a renovation project.
With approx. 490 m2 of living space in the main building (in addition to a basement level with vaulted ceilings) and approx. 200 m2 in the rustic house, the property offers a wide range of potential uses: as a residence of character, a villa with guest house, or conversion into charming residential units, also suitable for investment purposes.
An ideal setting for those wishing to realize a high-quality project with sensitivity and a sense of quality, offering attractive prospects also from a real estate perspective thanks to its central location within the village centre and the exceptional versatility of its spaces.
Municipality Description
Arogno is a charming municipality in Ticino, within the Lugano district, located in Val Mara. Its extensive municipal territory stretches from the shores of Lake Lugano up the slopes of Monte Sighignola and as far as the northern foothills of Monte Generoso. The main settlement lies on a natural terrace, sheltered by the surrounding heights, with further impressive panoramic viewpoints towards the hamlet of Pugerna, appreciated for its unique views over the city of Lugano. Over the centuries, Arogno was also home to numerous skilled artisans who worked in construction and decorative arts across various regions of Italy and Europe. Upon their return to the village, these experiences contributed to enriching the village with representative buildings and palazzi of high architectural and decorative quality - an impressive testament to a significant heritage of architectural and artistic expertise. Today, Arogno combines this deep-rooted historical legacy with a lively community life, where its panoramic setting and historic street layout blend harmoniously with local services, proximity to the lake and a strong cultural identity. Arogno has approximately 955 inhabitants and is situated at 606 m above sea level.
