House for sale, Nucleo (Aranno, Switzerland)

Set within the historic centre of Aranno, amid the wooded landscapes of the Malcantone and approximately 15 km from Lugano, this period house dating from 1690 preserves the intimate character of traditional Ticino dwellings. Its quiet west-facing position, naturally integrated into the fabric of the village, offers views towards Monte Lema and the valley, in a setting where stone, courtyards and historic pathways continue to define the identity of the place.

Completely restored in 2022, the property retains a strong sense of architectural coherence. Exposed stone walls, timber beams, terracotta floors, vaulted passageways and the coffered stucco ceiling of the principal living room create interiors of rare authenticity, discreetly updated from a technical perspective, including heating by heat pump.

The house is accessed through the courtyard, with a private parking space located directly beside the property. The ground floor comprises an entrance hall, a kitchen with dining area centred around a substantial stone fireplace, and a living room opening directly onto the covered portico.

The first floor accommodates two bedrooms and a bathroom. On the second floor, an open-plan bedroom or study is complemented by a further bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. The attic level is entirely dedicated to the principal suite, comprising a generous bedroom and a second room currently arranged as a private sitting room and dressing area.
The house also includes two spacious vaulted rooms, respectively used as a cellar and a technical room.

Outside, the private garden introduces a secluded, verdant dimension that is particularly valuable within a historic village setting. Adjoining the main building is an independent rustico of approximately 54 sq m, offering development potential and scope for restoration or extension.

The property is available exclusively as a primary residence.

A historic house of considerable atmosphere in one of the Malcantone’s most evocative villages, for those seeking tranquillity, nature and an authentic connection with the Ticino landscape.
