Classic Italian Dream Home Right in Positano
"Indulge in all that is classic Italian from Murano chandeliers to ceramic covered terraces!" - Reviewed by Lisa
Built in 1906 and once an artist’s atelier, the combination of traditional disciplines mixed with modern-day amenities renders this timeless Italian property an excellent destination for an unforgettable Positano vacation.
The home’s location cannot be more central to shops, restaurants, the beach and all the rainbow-colored joys of the center of Positano town. Plus, the remarkably large pool terrace (200sq m) becomes the pivotal point of it all. With a large pool and areas for dining, outdoor living, sunning and relaxing, this magnificent sweeping terrace is ideal for parties, events and lovely alfresco dinners under the stars.
The villa sprawls over multiple levels posing plenty of accommodation options for large families and groups. The central part of the home with upstairs bedrooms and the lower-level suites all offer scintillating vistas, while an abundance of patios and terraces leave plenty of privacy for all. Suites on the lower level are ideal for those looking for more privacy as they have separated patios, living /dining areas and independent entrances but all areas of the property are integrated and connected by stairways.

Living Areas
Renaissance style oils in ornate frames hang regally from the walls, damask and gilded headboards grace the bed heads, glittering Murano glass chandeliers hang overhead while fresh color combo hand-painted ceramic tile floors ground the whole, and the magnificent scents and shades of Positano enter through the multiple set’s French doors. All in all, a heady mix of ageless Italian style lending itself to sunny weather holidays, creating an inviting base to return to from days spent sightseeing and basking on the nearby beach.
The main home and lower-level apartments each offer terraces with breath-taking vistas over the sea and are furnished with elegant sun beds, tables, and umbrellas – the ideal place for breakfast with a view!
