This charming villa is perched on the slopes of Portofino Mountain, magnificently suspended above the village's small bay and offering unparalleled sea views.

Built in the 20th century as the private residence of a wealthy Genoese family, the villa stands apart from many other properties on the mountain, which were originally rustic dwellings or farmhouses before being converted into residences.

The property underwent a meticulous, full renovation in 2010 and is being sold fully furnished, with custom-designed, made-to-measure furniture.

Excellently distributed over two levels, the ground floor features a spectacular living area, including a spacious entrance hall, a living room, a dining room, an office, a kitchen, a laundry room, a staff room, two bathrooms, and a panoramic terrace. The upper floor hosts a comfortable sleeping area with three splendid suites. An independent annexe provides additional space for guests.

The villa is set within 3,000 sq m of fully fenced, well-maintained grounds, including a lawn, a beautiful rose garden, a vegetable garden, various fruit trees, and a rich variety of plants and flowers.

The swimming pool, complete with a changing room, enjoys a superlative location - built on an overhang, and creates the sensation of being suspended above Portofino, extending toward the infinity of the sea.

Convenient access is another rare and valuable feature: unlike most villas on Portofino Mountain, this residence is reachable directly by car and includes covered parking.

The ancient "Portus Delphini" has very remote origins, which are related to its position and made it a safe harbour for ships. Thanks to its location and its charming nature, Portofino earned the nickname "Pearl of the World." It has been a destination for VIPs and stars for many decades. Portofino is visited daily by princes, kings, actors, models, and sports stars from all around the world. From the large influx of foreign visitors, first the British and then the Germans, Portofino's economy was closely linked to tourism. The characteristic "Piazzetta" - overlooked by bars, restaurants, shops, boutiques, and other commercial activities - was recognized in July of 2012 as a Historical place of Italy, the first and only certificate issued by the homonymous association for its historical and cultural value.

This exclusive property is 400m from the sea, 5 km from Santa Margherita Ligure, 45 km from Genoa airport and 170 km from Milan.

Please note all distances and measurements are approximate and for security reasons, are not representative of the exact location of the property. For more information on the precise location of the property and its surrounding area, please contact the listed Property Adviser.
