Casa Venaschina | TI
Ronco sopra Ascona is considered one of the most sought-after residential and holiday resorts in Ticino. Only five minutes by car from Ascona and 15 minutes from the Italian border, this picturesque village is an ideal starting point for all those who enjoy hiking, golfing and sailing, swimming, love art and culture, but at the same time appreciate retreat, peace and nature.
The property is located on the valley side of Via Gottardo Madonna, a residential street closed to through traffic. The old village centre and the restaurants are only a few steps away. The shrub and tree population of the property, which has grown over decades, provides a lot of privacy and southern flair. At the lower end, the plot borders on forest.
The two-storey residential house « Casa Venascha » was the first house to be built outside Ronco sopra Ascona’s village centre. And even today, 72 years later, it has largely retained its rustic, romantic character. All five rooms are facing the lake. The unobstructed panoramic view from Ascona to Italy can be enjoyed not only from the individual rooms, but also from the long terrace with its typical Ticino loggia.
The two-storey « little sister » of the main house, the « Casa Venaschina », was created some twenty years later, which is also reflected in the architectural style. An ideal, uncomplicated refuge, for example for the new generation or for guests. Both the studio and the three-room apartment above offer an unobstructed view of the lake and mountains. The ‘aircraft view’ of the larger apartment is spectacular. In addition to a long balcony, the studio has a typical Ticino garden seating area made of granite.
