Description
Exclusive Penthouse – an eagle’s nest overlooking Lake Maggiore
High above Ascona, where the sky, mountains, and Lake Maggiore blend into a unique panorama, lies this extraordinary penthouse—a truly special place to live, enjoy life, and call home.
The 3.5-room apartment, with approximately 120 m² of living space, is manageable in size, yet its true spaciousness unfolds under the open sky: An enchanting terrace of approximately 80 m² extends the living space and gives this home a very special dimension. Here, you’re not just sitting on a terrace—you seem to be floating above Lake Maggiore.
The elevated hillside location conveys a wonderful sense of tranquility, openness, and privacy. At the same time, the center of Ascona is within easy walking distance—a rare combination of seclusion and proximity to daily life. A morning coffee with a view of the lake, followed by a stroll into the village for an aperitivo or dinner—so much is right on your doorstep.
As soon as you enter the apartment, you sense its special atmosphere. A spacious entryway with custom-built closets welcomes you in style and leads into the light-filled living area. The expansive glass walls almost blur the boundaries between inside and outside. Daylight flows through the rooms, and the fascinating landscape of Ticino becomes part of the interior itself.
A bioethanol fireplace, elegantly integrated into the coffee table, creates a cozy ambiance. Floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows offer sweeping views of Lake Maggiore and lend the living area an atmosphere that is difficult to put into words.
The true centerpiece, however, is the spacious terrace. With approximately 80 m² of space, it’s perfect for long summer evenings, a glass of wine at sunset, or quiet moments in the morning. The view sweeps across the lake, the mountains, and the rooftops of Ascona—a panorama that transforms with each changing season.
Two sunrooms extend the living space in a unique way. One of them features a Jacuzzi—an extraordinary place to sit back and simply savor the moment while taking in the Ticino landscape.
The modern, high-end kitchen combines design with flexibility. Thanks to the specially developed, modular kitchen island, it can be integrated openly into the living area or elegantly separated, as desired. A Qooker system complements the kitchen and ensures the highest level of comfort.
The stylish master bedroom features its own bathroom with a toilet. Another room is ideal as a guest room, retreat, or exclusive home office and also features its own shower with a toilet. A separate guest bathroom rounds out the living space. A particularly charming touch: the illuminated cloud ceiling in the guest bathroom creates a little piece of heaven right in the middle of the apartment.
Exquisite floor tiles made of beige Greek granite lend the rooms a timeless, warm elegance and underscore the high-quality character of this extraordinary property.
And then there’s something else that’s extremely rare for a penthouse of this size: four underground parking spaces are included with the apartment. One of them can even be locked with its own gate—a remarkable level of comfort, security, and privacy.
But this penthouse is not defined solely by its square meters. It thrives on its location, its view, its tranquility, and that incomparable feeling of living high above the lake yet being in the heart of Ascona in just a few minutes.
Perhaps it’s less a traditional apartment and more a personal retreat—a modern eagle’s nest overlooking Lake Maggiore.
A place where you can greet the first rays of morning sun over the mountains, start the day with a walk to Ascona, and in the evening, with a glass of wine in hand, watch as the lights around the lake slowly begin to glow.
A home that you don’t just live in—you experience.
