Fairy housing unit at 10 minutes drive from Lugano
Lovely and bright Ticino housing unit, furnished with taste and far from traffic noise.
Reachable by car to the entrance door for loading and unloading, public parking spaces are less than 100 m away.
The house is very comfortable and it is the ideal place to spend your holidays in Ticino. You will find yourself living in a fairytale while having the shopping malls at less than 2 minutes drive and Lugano at just 10 minutes.
Chestnut woods and hiking trails at 50 meters!
This is a typical Ticinese house built in the 1900's with 4 floors. At the entrance there is a living room with two large original vintage sofas, TV LED 55 "and thermo fireplace, the dining room and the kitchen.
On the first floor there is a large bathroom with bathtub and an additional bathroom.
On the second floor there are two bedrooms while on the attic floor there is a large and comfortable open space with air conditioning, two sofa beds, another LED TV 55 "and a wide play and relax area for children and adults.
The attic also offers a spectacular view of the Golden Hill on one side and the picturesque village square on the other.
Grancia is a Swiss municipality in the canton of Ticino, south of Lugano in Pian Scairolo. Grancia is a beautiful village where the flavor of the past is still alive and it will surely conquer you and your heart!
Using a car to move around is definitely the best, however, at only 5 minutes walk, there is a bus stop. The bus runs every 20 minutes and will allow you to easily reach Lugano Railway Station and the city center.

On the right side of the village entrance, you will find free public parking at your disposal. By entering the pedestrian area, you will need to pass the church and the square with the fountain, then you find yourself in "Piazza della Fontata" where the house is located. You can get to the front door by car for luggage loading / unloading and then park at the free public parking spaces.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with WiFi.

Very nice house at a fantastic location
The house was very clean and beautiful, the owner was really nice and the location was perfect. The village where the house is located is very old and quiet. Nevertheless, the shopping mall is not far and within a few minutes you can get to the lake.

Eine sehr schöne Zeit mit vielen Erlebnissen
Der Aufenthalt in Grancia war sehr angenehm und erholsam. Das Haus war gut ausgestattet und bot uns insgesamt 6 Erwachsenen allen Komfort. Das Wetter war wunderbar, bot Gelegenheit für Ausflüge, Badespaß und Klettertouren. Alles in allem ein gelungener Urlaub.
Wir empfehlen dieses Objekt gerne weiter.
