2 bedrooms apartment, 33 m²

Apricale, Imperia (province)

This town apartment measuring approx. 33 m2 enjoys a sunny south facing orientation in the heart of the romantic car free centre of Apricale, known to be one of the prettiest mountain villages in Liguria. Despite being located right in the maze of mews meandering through Apricale, the house can be approached by “Ape Piaggio” – a rare comfort making this property particularly attractive.
The apartment lies on the first floor and stretches over the entire floor level. The entrance opens into the living/dining area with adjacent kitchen and a shower room on the one hand and two small bedrooms and one living room enjoying stunning views over the green rolling hills on the other side.
The apartment needs a complete overhaul, but the building standard is solid. It offers plenty of potential and the opportunity to convert the attic floor into living area. The roof has been completely renewed in 2015; the double-glazed windows were installed on the south facing side at the same time. The apartment is connected to communal gas mains and electricity and water mains are in place. A 10 m2 cellar room on the opposite side of the mews offers convenient storage space.
Apricale is known for its picturesque medieval charm, cobbled mews, olive groves and surrounding rolling hills. The village has an excellent infra structure with a selection of restaurants, cafés, a food shop, post office, pharmacy and other shops to cover the daily needs. Cultural events are taking place throughout the year, culminating in the well-known theatre festival in August.
The coastal resorts Bordighera and Ventimiglia are just 25-minutes down the road; Sanremo, Menton, Monte Carlo and the international airport Nice can be reached within the hour.
Additional Option: A Sunny Garden
A 10-minute walk away from the apartment on the eastern outskirts of the village is a 1.224 m2 piece of land, which can be purchased for an extra 30.000 Euro. The grounds enjoy a sunny south facing orientation on a gently sloping hill stretching over two spacious natural stone terraces. The grounds can be approached up to a few meters by car and benefit from a water connection making it ideal to create a fruit orchard or vegetable garden. Sitting areas shaded from the sun invite to sit and enjoy the views or a barbeque.
