Description
A very special opportunity awaits you in the heart of the picturesque, historic center of Gordola.
The ensemble of various houses dating from around 1650 has been painstakingly and meticulously renovated with great attention to detail and brought up to the latest state of the art (electrics and plumbing). The technology in the houses can be conveniently operated by remote control. The renovation also included all the roofs, which were originally covered with the typical Ticino granite. Visible natural stone walls and architectural details round off the authentic appearance of all four houses. The houses are furnished with modern furniture combined with selected antiques. Each floor and room exudes a cozy and comfortable atmosphere with its granite steps, wooden ceiling beams, original iron railings, inviting fireplaces in the kitchen and living room. The main house is said to be the oldest house in Gordola and used to stand in the middle of the vineyards. A special feature is the three vaulted cellars, one above the other, which are furnished with interesting wooden shelves and furniture. The cellars invite guests to socialize and share wine and history.
Attached to the main house and independently accessible is the second main house. The spacious living and dining area with a large, ground-floor fireplace and the kitchen are spread over various levels with old exposed beams. A wooden staircase leads to the bedroom and bathroom. The thick brickwork allows for various seating areas and built-in cupboards.
In the detached house, the so-called old "trotte" or "torchio", there is historical evidence of the second oldest wine press in Ticino. A fantastically well-preserved masterpiece of ancient craftsmanship. A staircase above the trotte leads to another residential unit. The garage, which is attached to this trotte, can accommodate two small cars or a larger off-road vehicle.
An old, very well-preserved, detached bakery with an original oven from the Wilhelminian era rounds off this incredibly historic ensemble. There is a room used as an office in this building.
