Elegant Villa in Porto a Rapallo, Liguria

Details

Set in one of the most evocative corners of the Gulf of Tigullio, this 167 sqm period villa combines the timeless charm of the Italian Riviera with the convenience of a private yet central location in Rapallo. The property benefits from two separate entrances, with vehicular access from Via Aurelia Ponente and pedestrian access from the historic Antica Via Romana, allowing the town centre and the renowned Carlo Riva Marina to be reached in approximately five minutes on foot. Its south-eastern orientation and elevated position fill the interiors with natural light, while the generous windows frame the harbour and the sea as an ever-changing backdrop. The main floor opens into an impressive double living room, where five large windows enhance the brightness and draw the landscape into the home, alongside a master bedroom with en-suite bathroom. The lower level accommodates a second living area, a spacious eat-in kitchen, a double guest bedroom, an additional bathroom and practical service rooms. The villa comprises four rooms in total, including two bedrooms and two bathrooms, with marble flooring throughout the principal interiors, PVC double-glazed windows and recently installed frames. Independent heating and hot water systems ensure comfort and autonomy. The outdoor spaces include a terrace of approximately 40 sqm and a private garden of around 20 sqm, partly paved and carefully landscaped with flowering plants and an ornamental fountain, creating an intimate setting for quiet moments in the open air. A 22 sqm garage and an additional outdoor parking space complete the property. This is a home of genuine character, offering the privacy of a secluded residence together with the effortless pleasure of experiencing Rapallo, its harbour and the sea as part of everyday life.
