Design villa with sea-facing terraces in Vietri sul Mare, an architectural masterpiece by Paolo Soleri set in the Amalfi Coast
Description
Set in one of the most fascinating settings on the Amalfi Coast, this unique villa was designed in the 1950s by renowned architect Paolo Soleri, a pioneer of sustainable architecture and founder of the concept of "arcology," the fusion of architecture and ecology. It is one of his only two Italian works, along with the historic Solimene Factory in Vietri. Surrounded by nature and suspended between the sky and the sea, the villa offers a continuous view of the marine horizon, thanks to an imposing glass wall that embraces the landscape. The atmosphere one breathes is that of an atelier-house, where natural light, architectural lines and the marine environment blend in perfect harmony. Spread over 140 square meters and two levels, the villa hosts a large open-plan living area with double living room and fireplace, completely overlooking the sea. The modern and well-equipped kitchen is perfectly integrated into the convivial environment. The sleeping area includes a master suite with en-suite bathroom and jacuzzi, a second master bedroom also with en-suite bathroom, as well as a third guest bathroom. The interiors are furnished with contemporary taste, using fine materials that respect the original character of the home.
Outdoor Spaces
The property is enriched by 100 square meters of panoramic terraces on two levels, with two jacuzzi tubs, lounge area, outdoor shower and solarium. Every corner is designed to offer maximum relaxation and to fully enjoy the spectacular sea view. The villa also has a private descent leading directly to the beach, which can be walked in a few minutes. The three independent entrances guarantee privacy and functionality.
Condition and finishes
In excellent condition, the villa retains intact the distinctive elements of Soleri's work, such as the sculptures built into the pillars and the large windows that dissolve the boundaries between interior and exterior. The balance between original design and modern comfort creates an exclusive, bright and welcoming environment.
Potential uses
Ideal as a luxury private residence or as an investment for high-end hospitality business, this villa represents a rare opportunity in the Coastal real estate scene. Its architectural uniqueness, beachfront location and direct access to the beach make it perfect for those seeking an exclusive retreat immersed in Mediterranean beauty.

Located in Vietri sul Mare, renowned for its artistic majolica tiles, the villa is in a privileged position, a short distance from the center and the main services. Amalfi, Ravello, Positano and Salerno are within easy reach. The elevated position ensures breathtaking views and total privacy, with the sound of the sea as a daily background.
