Description
Stintino, originally a fishing village founded by settlers from the nearby and stunning island of Asinara, is today one of the most sought-after destinations in Northern Sardinia. Its sea displays unmatched shades of blue, while the 17th-century Aragonese Tower marks the edge of La Pelosa - one of the island's most photographed and iconic beaches.
Just minutes from the sea, nestled in the fragrant Mediterranean scrub, lies this unique earth-sheltered home. Designed in harmony with nature from the ground up, it benefits from the natural insulation of the land, providing a comfortable climate all year round - cool in summer and gently refreshed by the Mistral winds in winter.
With low environmental and energy impact, the property is surrounded by junipers and native vegetation. The entrance features a swimming pool and walkways paved in local trachyte stone, leading to the spacious living area. The lounge, dining room, and kitchen flow seamlessly into one another, all enhanced by the same elegant trachyte on the walls.
The home's layout includes two separate sleeping areas, offering six bedrooms and five bathrooms - ensuring both privacy and functionality.
On the roof, a lush green terrace-lawn offers breathtaking views over the shimmering blues of the sea and the granite peaks of Asinara, now a protected national park. Below ground, the property includes a technical room and a large cellar with versatile storage space.
With the right renovation, this house could become a rare architectural gem - beautifully enriched by the natural wonders that surround it.
