Villa with terrace Arzachena (Italy)
Baia Sardinia: the stone house steps from the sea that you will never find againStop scrolling for a moment.Not because this is just another listing but because this is not just another house. Anyone who knows Baia Sardinia understands exactly what it means to find, just a few minutes' walk from the beach and the village centre, a property with this history, this soul, and this position. In thirty years of working the Costa Smeralda property market, I can count on one hand the times I have come across something quite like this.A house that tells a story and waits for the person who will complete itStep through the wrought iron gate framed by local stone that warm, pale, ancient granite and you will understand immediately that you are not walking into one of the many holiday villas built for the tourist market. You are walking into a real house, built to last, lived in with care, with a character that no modern renovation could ever replicate from scratch.The property requires a full renovation and for anyone who knows how to read this market, that is not a drawback: it is precisely the reason why this represents one of the most concrete opportunities available today on the Costa Smeralda. Acquiring a structure of this solidity, in this location, at this price, and bringing it up to the standard it deserves means taking ownership of a first-class property asset whose final value will significantly exceed the total investment. Those who have made this calculation in the area over recent years have been proved right.Three levels of potentialOn the ground floor the sleeping area is quiet and sheltered: four bedrooms distributed across the levels of the house, with that structural skeleton in local stone that is the first thing any experienced architect looks at when stepping into a restoration project. The granite walls, the ceilings, the staircase everything that truly costs in a renovation is already there, intact, solid, and authentic. What is needed is vision and the willingness to bring it to the level this location deserves.Climb the granite staircase to the main living floor. The sitting room opens onto the terrace, and from there the sea is present, real, undeniable. The turquoise of Baia Sardinia that shade that first-time visitors can barely believe is real. Picture that terrace rebuilt with contemporary materials, the right glazing, the right lighting: it becomes the heart of the house, the gravitational centre around which every summer revolves.The taverna on the third level habitable, independent, with its own direct access is a space that in the renovation can become a self-contained guest apartment, a study, or a separate relaxation area. In terms of rental income, having an independent additional volume in a property in Baia Sardinia means managing the house with a flexibility that very few properties in the area can offer.The mature garden, with its Mediterranean vegetation grown over decades palms, magnolias, aromatic plants is a green heritage that would take decades to recreate from nothing. In a new build, you simply cannot buy it at any price.Baia Sardinia: the right place at the right timeBaia Sardinia is not Porto Cervo, and that is precisely its strength. This is the real Costa Smeralda where you walk to the beach, where the harbour restaurants are reachable on foot, where summer still has a human pace. The beach is a few minutes' walk away. The village centre with its shops, bars and restaurants requires no car. The most celebrated beaches of the Costa Capriccioli, Romazzino, Liscia Ruja are fifteen minutes away.The market for quality rentals in Baia Sardinia has a demand that structurally exceeds available supply. A renovated property of this size, with this history and this position, commands weekly rental rates among the highest on the entire Costa Smeralda. Those who buy today, renovate thoughtfully and rent...
