Description
An elegant historic villa, built on an ancient Napoleonic layout, "pied dans l'eau" (waterfront) with a private beach. For over forty years, the current owners have spent the entire summer season in this welcoming residence, hosting illustrious guests from the worlds of culture, politics, and science. The property is located directly on the beach, in a unique location, easily accessible from Marina di Campo airport or the ferry port. Access to the villa is via a convenient driveway gate on the coastal road. Descending the private road, you reach a convenient covered parking area, located close to the house but discreetly hidden from view. This parking area can accommodate up to four cars, in addition to those that can be parked on the private road within the property. From the parking area, a few steps lead to the large outdoor terrace and the property entrance. You're immediately captivated by the enchanting view of the bay and the beach below the villa, one of the few privately owned beaches. There are several entrances from the garden level to the villa. A large atrium leads to the living room with fireplace, the dining room, or the large internal courtyard with a large barbecue and a stone table that can seat 16 people. The courtyard has been able to seat up to 120 people during parties and receptions hosted by the owners. Also on the garden-terrace level are two bedrooms and two bathrooms, as well as a kitchen with a separate pantry. The lower level, accessed via a comfortable internal staircase, contains a large suite, a double bedroom, and two bathrooms. There is also a maid's quarters with a bathroom for staff and a boat storage area with direct access from the beach as well as from within the villa. The beach is private. The large reception courtyard, paved with terracotta tiles dating back to 1850, leads to a beautiful garden with fruit trees and a cool, shaded gazebo. The villa measures 480 square meters, while the garden measures 4,000 square meters.
