5 bedrooms villa, 201 m²

Oggebbio, Verbano-Cusio-Ossola (province)

Lake Maggiore

In Resiga, in the municipality of Oggebbio, we offer for sale a charming villa built in the early 1900s in a commanding position overlooking Lake Maggiore and surrounded by a splendid panoramic garden. The bright, southeast-facing villa extends over three floors for a total of 176 square meters. The entrance opens to a spacious living room divided into a dining area and a relaxation area with sofas and a fireplace, and a separate large kitchen. The ground floor includes a bathroom with shower and bathtub and a laundry room. Lake views are visible from every window, even from the ground floor. The finishes are from the complete renovation carried out in the late 1970s: exposed beams, terracotta floors, and a fully and elegantly tiled bathroom. A staircase leads to the first floor, where the floors are finished with carpeting typical of the renovation period. The two front bedrooms are both spacious double bedrooms with double windows and splendid views, all overlooking the lake. A comfortable single bedroom with a bunk bed completes the floor. Continuing, the staircase leads to the second floor, where we find two large bedrooms: the rooms are attic-style, yet feature generous ceiling heights and wood finishes, and once again overlook the lake. The mezzanines above the staircase contain two bathrooms with sinks and toilets, completing the villa's sleeping quarters. In the garden, a splendid gazebo covered by a lush kiwi tree and a brick barbecue create a delightful area for al fresco dining in the summer, in the shade and complete privacy. At the rear of the property is a large terrace, a firewood storage room, and a plot of land with fruit trees. The property also includes a 42 sq m double garage.
Overall, the property is in excellent condition. It requires modernization work regarding the finishes and fixtures, which are all made of wood and need to be upgraded to improve their energy efficiency. The living area can easily be converted into an open space, combining the living room and kitchen into one large, bright, modern space. The roof is in excellent condition and very well-insulated. The villa's location is certainly noteworthy: in addition to enjoying breathtaking views and being on a very quiet road, it is just a few minutes' walk to the lakeside and the beach, just 500 meters away. The renowned town of Cannero Riviera is just over 2 km away, Cannobio, with its beautiful lakefront, famous market, Lido, and all essential services, is only 9 km away, and the Swiss border is 14 km away. Furthermore, in the opposite direction, the city of Verbania with its shops, theater, and sports facilities is 12 km away. This splendid home has the charm of times gone by, a splendid location, great brightness, tranquility, unique views, and all the necessary spaces to make it welcoming and comfortable even for a large family.
