Property description
A splendid attic located on the second floor of an historic villa surrounded by a beautiful park with centuries-old olive trees and whose architecture reveals the English origins of the original owners.
This is a spacious property with no less than four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen and living room overlooking the sea view balcony, two storage rooms, and a loggia.
Of the park of about 3347 square metres a quarter is owned by the mansard and there is also an exclusive ownership of a garden where it would be possible to obtain a swimming pool and where it is possible to park several cars.
There is the possibility of splitting the mansard into two different flats, as well as the possibility of purchasing it together with the lower floor, also for sale, which would almost double its current size.
The historic villa and the context in which it is located make this mansard a truly unique property
The property is situated in Imperia, near the old hamlet of Porto Maurizio, perched on a promontory in a quiet position from which it is easy to reach the Borgo Prino seafront walkway, with its bars, typical local cuisine restaurants, cafès and pizzerias.
Porto Maurizio, which together with Oneglia make up Imperia, is situated on a promontory over the sea. Its historical center known as Parrasio is an intertwining of narrow ‘carruggi’
and ‘creuze’ (alleyways and walkways) amidst period buildings. Among the many beautiful examples of neoclassical religious architecture there is the San Maurizio Basilica church,
which is the largest church in Liguria; the baroque Santa Chiara church to which is connected a stunning open portico which dominates the sea from above and incorporates an old Saracen Tower; the San Maurizio Baroque Parish church which has interior
frescoes painted by Tomaso Carrega. Surrounding this historical center there are various old fisherman hamlets: Borgo Prino with its typical buildings painted in typical Ligurian colours, all facing the sea along the promenade, with pebbled and sandy beaches just below, and typical bars and restaurants; Borgo Foce, with its little harbour for ‘Gozzo’ fishing boats, is connected, via a scenic and picturesque walkway overlooking the sea, to Borgo Marina with its sandy beaches and Marina, where the Calata Anselmi dockside hosts the yearly Vele d’Epoca international
classic sailing boats festival. Once a town dedicated to sea navigation, but above all to the production and trading of olive oil for which it was famous throughout the Mediterranean, today Porto Maurizio, thanks to its beaches, Marina and climate, is mainly a tourist destination. The property is close to all amenities and just 5 minutes from Imperia Ovest motorway exit, 30 min from Sanremo, 49 min from the French Riviera and just 1hr from
Nice International Airport to the west and 1,20 hrs from Genoa International Airport to the east.
