Property description
RUSTIC TO RESTORE IN BORGO LIGURE This small stone cottage is located on the edge of the characteristic village of Carpasio, with a wonderful panoramic view open on terraced fields and green mountains.The facades are in original stone and in good condition.The rustic, completely to be restored, has two levels of the same surface for a total of about 60 square meters.A few meters away, crossing the path, a private garden of about 400 meters completes the property, giving the possibility to cultivate a magnificent vegetable garden or to equip a green area.A small haven of relaxation, in a quiet Ligurian village that lends itself well to a recovery of the simplicity of tradition to experience the beauty of nature and the hinterland, just 20 minutes from the sea.Carpasio is the characteristic village with winding streets that follow the steep cliffs of the slope in the Carpasina Valley, among rural houses that have preserved their original features.Carpasio can be reached by passing through Montalto Ligure, along a very beautiful road open to vast panoramas with surprising landscape effects.At 715 meters above sea level halfway up the coast, all surrounded by land transformed into terraces with vegetable gardens, vineyards and olive groves, the village appears after the last hairpin bends as a cluster of houses suspended in midair, full of charm and waiting to be discovered.Strolling through the maze of alleys you find yourself enveloped in an atmosphere of other times: the plastered houses mix with those in exposed stone, giving a touch of kindness to the alleys that run through the town from top to bottom, between porches, arches, hallways, fountains and small courtyards embellished with plants and geraniums.The parish church dedicated to Saint Anthony the martyr from the second half of the 16th century is splendid, with the baroque oratory next to it.A little further on Sanremo, Ospedaletti, Bordighera, Ventimiglia and the Côte d'Azur with the international airport of La Cote d'Azur in Nice.The surrounding area of the village is characterized by the numerous chapels known as the “bon voyageâ€, with scenes of the Via Crucis or the life of the Saints or with ex voto, painted by local artisans.There are numerous possible excursions on foot or by mountain bike along the Carpasina stream which offers crystal clear waters, lakes and waterfalls in the middle of the woods or in strips of olive groves.Ideal place for those who want to spend relaxing moments.
