Description

PRIVATE STRUCTURE (Lease only). villa is a unique coastal property carved into the cliffs above the Golfo Paradiso, in the old fishing village of Sori, opposite Monte Portofino. Located within a private residential setting, the villa sits just above the sea. Its bold, mid-century style pays tribute to the Italian design movement of the 1960s, particularly the work of Gio Ponti, whose signature ceramic tiles and retro furnishings are featured throughout the interiors and terraces. A highlight is the pentagonal-shaped pool with hydromassage jets, set on a panoramic terrace overlooking the sea. Decorative tiling and the villa’s playful layout evoke the feel of a vintage cruise liner. With three double bedrooms and stylish living and dining areas inside and out, this property offers a unique base for exploring Liguria’s coastal towns, including Portofino, Santa Margherita and the Cinque Terre.
