LUXURY SEA VIEW VILLA FOR SALE IN POSITANO, AMALFI COAST

In the oldest part of Positano, slightly above the historical centre, near an antique church, we find this ancient villa (12 bedrooms and 19 bathrooms) enjoying a beautiful panoramic view of the Amalfi coast and Capri.

The property is set in a prestigious area, just five minutes from the historic center of Positano and the sea, and allows easily reaching several towns and cities of the region, among which we must cite Sorrento, Amalfi, Ravello, the isle of Capri (reached by boat in 40’), the incredible Roman city of Pompeii, Vietri and Naples.

The best airports are Naples (54km; 1h 5’) and Rome (254km; 3h).

The villa (500 m² – 5,382 ft², 12 bedrooms and 19 bathrooms) is set on four floors and is composed as follows.

• Basement: four suites with bathroom, terraces and porch.
• Ground floor: dining room, kitchen with pantry and spacious living room with TV corner and library. The main entrance is set on this floor, from the Mediterranean garden full of bougainvilleas, lemon and orange trees.
• First floor: four big suites with bathroom decorated with original Neapolitan ceramic mosaics dating back to the 18th century. All the bedrooms are equipped with large bathrooms and large terraces with all the comforts and amenities one would expect from a villa of this grandeur in Positano.
• Second floor: two suites (each with two bedrooms and two bathrooms). From the central landing one can also exit onto the two terraces at the back of the building.

The house is full of terraces with pergolas and loggias (350 sqm) and  lush gardens (1,000 sqm) with a spectacular view on the beach of Positano. From the garden one can also enjoy a breathtaking view over the colored historic center of Positano, located just slightly below along the cliff.

This aristocratic property was originally built in 1741 on the ruins of Roman construction and has been recently carefully restored to a high standard and keeping its original magnificent distinctive features. The current owners have lovingly recovered the original Neapolitan paintings and decorated the house with antique high quality furniture.
