Villa for sale in Küsnacht, Zürich, Switzerland

Situated in the most privileged residential area in Küsnacht, on the right banks of Lake Zurich, is this prestigious property.

The villa was built in 1938 with a keen appreciation of its uniquely special location and exuded understated elegance and timeless grandeur. Located on a more than 3,600 sq m plot and offers approximately 450 sq m of living space. The later addition of a park-like garden with a pool and a romantic pergola-covered walkway further enhanced it. The garden pavilion was harmoniously incorporated in 1982.

This exceptional villa enjoys breathtaking views overlooking the lake and the mountains beyond. The captivating backdrop provides an exceptional degree of privacy.

The property is well maintained, although the interior finishes might need minor restoration. It comprises eleven-and-a-half generously proportioned rooms and four bathrooms.

The new owner will have the one-off opportunity to renovate this magnificent property to their own specification, extend it, or even consider replacing it with a new build. It is possible to fully utilize this distinctive plot by demolishing the existing building and replacing it with an ensemble of luxury properties for several freehold purchasers.

Küsnacht lies along the highly desirable Gold Coast on the sun-favoured right banks of Lake Zurich and is just a few minutes' drive from the city. One of the most privileged residential locations in Switzerland, it benefits from its proximity to Zurich's pulsating metropolis, ranks second in the canton for its low tax regime, and retains an unspoiled, villagey way of life set in a stunning greenbelt.

Your daily essentials can be sourced in the picturesque centre, just a three-minute drive from the property. There are excellent s-Bahn light rail links to Zurich, the airport, and Rapperswil, and you also have easy connections to anywhere else by car.
