2 bedrooms country house, 100 m²

Castel Vittorio, Imperia (province)

This charming country house is nestled in the unspoiled nature of the Ligurian Alps, at an altitude of around 600 meters, offering sweeping panoramic views of the surrounding hills. Surrounded by peace and natural beauty, the property is ideal for nature lovers, hikers, and mountain bikers. The nearest mountain villages, Castel Vittorio and Pigna, are about a 15-minute drive away and offer a good infrastructure with restaurants and shops. The coast near Ventimiglia or Bordighera can be reached in approximately 40 minutes, and the international airport in Nice is about 1.5 hours away.
The house was newly built in 2015 on the site of a former farmhouse and stands out for its solid construction. The approximately 100 sqm of living space is spread over two levels. The upper floor, accessible from street level, features a spacious living area with ceilings up to 3.15 meters high. Large floor-to-ceiling windows flood the space with light and offer beautiful views of the surrounding landscape from both the dining and living areas. A south-facing terrace of around 10 sqm extends the living space outdoors.
The lower level houses the main bedroom with direct access to the grounds, a spacious full bathroom, a smaller bedroom, and a practical utility area.
The approximately 13,779 sqm plot is terraced with natural stone walls and planted with around 150 Taggiasca olive trees. A little below the house sits a 45 sqm stone building in need of restoration—an appealing project with additional potential.
Important to note: The house has not been inhabited for several years and therefore requires renovation work in some areas to restore it to its former glory. In particular, a new water supply system is necessary. A sustainable solution could be the installation of a rainwater collection system, allowing the house to be supplied with water in an independent and eco-friendly way.
The house is equipped with gas-powered underfloor heating and a wood-burning stove in the living area. Solar connections have already been prepared. Access is via a concrete private road that connects the house to the public Pigna–Triora road. Parking is available directly on the property.
