Casa Ruscada

ED Refnr. 2644802

Discover the authentic charm of Ticino by staying in this typical Ticino house dating back to the early 1900s, tastefully furnished to preserve the vintage character of the building. Completely renovated to ensure maximum comfort while retaining an antique and cosy soul, this house is a true time capsule inviting you to live a unique experience in the Swiss valleys.

The interior of the house features an eat-in kitchen equipped with all modern conveniences, including a refrigerator/freezer, hot air oven, electric cooker, and other small appliances essential to daily life such as a slicer, coffee pod machine, kettle and toaster, all enhanced by a traditional wood-burning fireplace. The carefully decorated living room offers a cosy sofa, television and a pellet stove, perfect for relaxing evenings, while the recently renovated bathroom has all the necessary amenities including a spacious shower. Three spacious bedrooms can accommodate up to six people plus a small child, providing space and comfort for the whole family.

Outside, guests can enjoy a large terrace offering breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. Complete with a stone table and umbrella for outdoor meals, and a gas grill for unforgettable barbecues with friends, this area is the ideal place to relax and absorb the beauty of Ticino's nature.

The house is located in the heart of the Centovalli, a valley known for its tranquillity and idyllic landscapes that can be admired when travelling on the famous little train. Very sunny and quiet, Costa, the hamlet where the house is located, is situated at an altitude of 890 metres above Borgnone. This area retains the character and peculiarities of the Ticino villages with their typical tiled roofs, offering an ideal base both for hiking and sports enthusiasts, with mountains, mountain biking, skiing and golfing routes easily accessible, and for those who simply wish to relax by immersing themselves in the slow and regenerating rhythm of nature.

Ideal for families seeking a refuge from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, this typical Ticino house guarantees an unforgettable stay where tradition and comfort blend perfectly. Let yourself be seduced by its vintage atmosphere, explore the wonderful surroundings and create precious memories in this corner of Swiss paradise.
