CLOSE TO THE CITY, FAR FROM CHAOS.

Situated near the district of Lugano, in the municipality of Cureglia (Canton Ticino), the residential complex, Zinnia Park blends well into the extensive green context of the surrounding park, in harmony with the hilly landscape.

It is divided into two zones with different uses: three independent buildings and four semi-detached villas.

The former are, to all intents and purposes, modern revisitations of farm buildings usually located in the countryside, a choice based on the marriage between archaic and modern and between buildings and green countryside.

Brick is without a doubt the main material, combined to contrast with the glass of the glazed parentheses. The pitched roof and the grilled aperture on the facade are the final rural touch to the buildings.

The liveable space is composed of one underground floor and three floors above ground, for each of them. Each floor contains three apartments, with garden on the ground floor and an attic on the top floor.

On the other hand, the villas are composed of four semi-detached dwellings providing a total of eight homes with garden and private garage. Divided into an underground floor with services, a ground floor with living zone and garden and a first floor with bedrooms.

Inside the private park we find paths, walks, meeting areas, children's playground and barbecue area for a life far from the chaos of the city.

And that's not all – as we have already said, the whole complex is located inside the already existing large park which surrounds the property.

A place of tranquillity, composed of areas shaded by trees, meadows and flowering plants, designed by an important, internationally famous, landscape gardening practice.

PROJECT PECULIARITIES

Project located within a huge park in the municipality of Cureglia, a mainly residential municipality, in a privileged, tranquil and convenient position.

Three different profiles for three independent buildings. One is for sale on a PPP (part of the property by floors) basis, one with apartments to rent and one has been sold to an investor on a buy-to-let basis.
