Description
In the hinterland of Sestri Levante, in Val Petronio, an open and well exposed valley, lies Velva, a small medieval village where peace and tranquility reign, far from the confusion of the city, a village much loved by foreign tourists, since the life here is marked by a slow pace and everyday life is made up of small and simple gestures. Located on the Ligurian hills, about 15 km from Sestri Levante, we offer for sale a historic residence of rare beauty. The eighteenth-century house is located in the historic center of the town, reachable only on foot through narrow streets and characteristic steps. This wonderful house is located near the town church and is placed in a dominant position over the valley, with a view that extends from the surrounding vineyards and woods to the sea. This luxurious historic villa consists of a part built in 1500 and probably belonged to the clergy, as evidenced by some slates carved with religious symbols, to which subsequent additions were made. Completely renovated in the 90s, the building has maintained the charm and elegance of times gone by thanks to the skilful restoration carried out by the owners. The 600 m2 property is spread over several levels and is currently divided into two distinct residential units, which can be unified with some building works. A part of approximately 400 m2 is arranged on two floors with two wonderful panoramic terraces and a splendid 1000 m2 garden with flowers, olive trees and fruit trees; the other, with independent entrance, is approximately 200 m2. In this ancient house there are 6 double bedrooms, 5 full bathrooms and 3 small ones, laundry room, a beautiful kitchen with fireplace, wood-burning oven and characteristic marble sink, large living rooms with working fireplaces, two cellars and a stone tavern. Modern and ancient, past and present magically merge in this charming residence, where next to the ancient terracotta floors, mosaics and cement tiles, part of the 18th century, niches with cult images and ancient slates with religious friezes, modern works such as the photovoltaic system, pellet boiler, heat pumps, solar panels and air conditioning. The property includes two parking spaces approximately 70 meters from the property. The charm and refinement of this property, immersed in the beauty and tranquility of the place, will not leave you indifferent, it is an excellent opportunity for a single or two-family villa, but it can also be used as a tourist accommodation facility. The already approved project for the swimming pool certainly adds value to the already suggestive property.--98607cc981d114a0aee1989213f7fb0a!
