Accommodation

Antiche Cure di Ghiffa Residential Park, facing the splendid shores of Lake Maggiore, is a piece of Paradise, the ideal place for those who are not simply looking for a home, but a new way of living in time and space.

The Park will include an exquisite building, which is known as Casa Madre, that will contain shops, a restaurant, a well-being area, residential apartments and apartments managed for tourists along with hotel residence facilities.

This project also includes residences in the Park and also several luxury villas in the landscaped park to the rear.

Antiche Cure di Ghiffa Residential Park, like the lake that it faces, is a perfect example of how architecture and natural beauty can live in harmony. Located where, in the 1920s, there were the ancient natural care facilities of Ghiffa, the new project does not only revive the name, but also the philosophic concept of Cure Naturali di Ghiffa.

Life quality is the spirit that goes hand in hand with this project, materialising in the respect for the identity of this site, the attention to the needs of future inhabitants and the love for the surrounding environment.

The architectural restoration of the original complex, completed by a harmonic and newly developed residential project, merges with an ancient 4-hectare park that becomes the ideal setting for those who are looking for a new way of living, where the needs of daily life combine with personal care needs.

The "Casa Madre" Residence
This extremely captivating building that used to host the ancient facilities of "Cure Naturali di Ghiffa", is the core of the whole complex.

The Casa Madre Residence will include 4 shops, 1 restaurant, 1 wellness area, 17 residential flats and 23 flats organised in a tourist hotel residence.

The flats, which are all built with top level finishing and have large terraces with a view on the lake, will measure on average 50 to 70 square metres. For those who love larger places, there are also flats of 100 to 150 square metres. Each flat will have a reserved parking area in the underground garage.

The Casa Madre Residence is now at an advanced stage of construction.

The Residential Park
The project of Antiche Cure di Ghiffa Residential Park combines the residential facilities with a range of top level services that make this place an oasis of comfort and wellness.

This area will include a restaurant, a wellness area, a swimming-pool and shops, thus creating a unique environment, entirely on a human scale.

The Park Residences
Inside the Park, enclosed in the peaceful environment of luxuriant vegetation, will be apartments within smaller buildings - ideal for those who want to live in a place of tranquillity and freedom.

These projects which are cleverly set in splendid natural surroundings, will contain 70 to 150 square metre flats. Prestigiously interior decorated, the flats will have large balconies, exquisite views on the lake and natural landscape of incredible beauty. The Exclusive Villas
The pride of this prestige residential project are the exclusive villas in the park. Plans exist for some of these, others will be built to client requirements and specification.

This is the ideal solution for those who want to combine the pleasure of living in a wonderful natural setting with quiet and absolute privacy. The villas will enjoy a view on the lake and will be embellished by gracious private gardens. They will be constructed by privileging the use of natural materials that merge perfectly with the landscape: wrought iron, visible stone and precious inserts of Bianco Montorfano granite.

Note that there is some flexibility for buyers securing a villa during the construction phase - for example Lavotoio could be combined to create a single villa rather than two apartments.

Plans are available for some of the villas - see below.

The Location
Hewn and sculpted by glaciers, Lake Maggiore has always stolen the heart of visitors, with its enchanted fishermen’s villages, its sheltered bays, the wild landscape of Alps mirrored on the surface to the north, the wonders of the Borromeo gulf.

In Romantic Europe great artists such as Byron, Goethe and Stendhal took inspiration from its shores and their hearts were torn by its beauty; Milan aristocrats chose Lake Maggiore as a holiday destination and built wonderful villas and parks dotted all around; the Borromeos understood the strategic importance of this area and turned it into a feud to prevent attack by Switzerland.

Whole pages of history were written on this enchanting lake that still continues to enthral even the least sensitive tourists with its landscape and architectural jewels. Antiche Cure di Ghiffa Residential Park stands in a privileged position where you can enjoy the view of Lake Maggiore, the ideal place where you can find peaceful and relaxing places close to all the comforts that our modern life requires.
