Description
Located in lowest part of Valsolda, on the Italian shore of Lake Lugano, this traditional house offers approximately 140 m² of internal space across three levels, together with an additional entrance area on the ground floor.
The property enjoys beautiful lake views and direct access to the lakeshore, making it an interesting opportunity for buyers looking to create a personalised residence in an authentic lakeside setting.
The house requires complete renovation, allowing the future owner to plan the interiors, finishes and layout according to their own preferences.
The first floor, measuring approximately 50 m², could accommodate an open or separate kitchen, a living area and a bathroom. The second floor offers the potential to create at least two bedrooms and an additional bathroom. The upper attic with good height may provide space for a further room or an ancillary area.
On the ground floor, two independent entrances provide practical flexibility. The space could also be used for storing bicycles or motorbikes.
A Lakefront Setting
The direct relationship with the water is one of the property's defining features. Its position offers a more intimate setting than the larger lakeside towns, with traditional architecture, a historic village atmosphere and the surrounding mountain landscape.
Valsolda is also well placed for those who wish to explore the Italian and Swiss sides of the Lake Lugano area. The location may appeal to international buyers seeking a second home in northern Italy, within reach of the Canton of Ticino.
Renovation and Budget
The asking price is �420,000, excluding purchase costs. The preliminary renovation estimate is approximately �350,000, giving an indicative combined purchase and renovation budget of �770,000 before acquisition costs, additional professional fees and any unforeseen works.
A new water-source heat pump system is planned, with the final specification to be established during the technical design phase.
An Opportunity for a Personal Lakeside Project
This property is suited to buyers who value a direct connection with the lake and would prefer to create their own home rather than purchase a finished, standardised interior.
