Just outside Porto Santo Stefano, in one of the most evocative positions of the Argentario, this elegant villa of about 470 square meters enjoys a splendid open view of the sea and the hills of the Mediterranean scrub. The property is the result of a major renovation and transformation project developed over a period of over twenty years, which has been able to convert the original annex of a prestigious villa into a private residence of great character. The project, also carried out with the contribution of Arch. Spadolini, has maintained a strong link with the Tuscan architectural tradition, reinterpreting it through large and bright rooms, quality materials and a refined continuity between indoor and outdoor spaces. The villa is spread over three levels, for a total of about 470 square meters, and has five bedrooms and five bathrooms, as well as an independent annex of about 50 square meters. One of the distinctive elements of the property is the architecture of the building itself: the facades facing the sea are covered in exposed stone, a choice that allows the villa to fit very naturally into the landscape of the Argentario, almost merging with the vegetation and the surrounding context. THE INTERIOR: The lower level represents the convivial heart of the residence. Through the service rooms you enter a large and bright living room, embellished with an important eighteenth-century marble fireplace. From here you move on to the refined dining room, also characterized by the presence of a fireplace, to continue towards the dining room and the kitchen. The kitchen retains a particular authentic character, with a vaulted ceiling and fireplace, and opens, like the other main rooms on the level, towards the garden and the panorama through large glass surfaces. Light, greenery and the sea thus become an integral part of the living spaces, creating a natural continuity between the interiors and the landscape. The intermediate level, also accessible directly from the garden through the second entrance of the villa, houses an elegant study with fireplace and large panoramic window, a particularly suggestive environment thanks to the view of the sea. On the same level are the spaces dedicated to laundry and ironing, as well as a bedroom with private bathroom. The rooms are characterized by large openings that allow natural light to enter generously and offer glimpses of the sea and the garden. On the upper floor is the main sleeping area. The master suite has a private bathroom, walk-in closet and wardrobe, while a second bedroom, more intimate, also has a private bathroom and wardrobe. The floor also includes an additional room intended for a bedroom, with provision for the construction of a bathroom. A particularly interesting architectural feature of this level is the natural lighting, entrusted to large electric skylights, which guarantee brightness and privacy without interrupting the continuity of the surfaces and elevations. THE ANNEX Separated from the main building is an outbuilding of about 50 square meters, with a bathroom and independent entrance from the terraces of the property. Its autonomy makes it particularly versatile: it can be used to host friends and family, as accommodation for staff or as a completely independent space from the main villa. OUTDOOR SPACES The property includes about 2,500 square meters of outdoor areas, entirely fenced and organized in gardens, terraces and paved surfaces that harmoniously follow the natural conformation of the land. The terraces have been designed to make the most of the slope, creating large flat and easily usable areas especially around the villa and on the front facing the sea. The main entrance, protected by an elegant iron gate, leads to a large square paved with travertine slabs, where several cars can be comfortably parked. A second access, directly from the street, leads to the garage of about 60 square meters, from which it is possible to access the rooms of the villa. Particularly suggestive is the garden on the east side of the property, enclosed by ancient stone walls and characterized by three large arched openings that frame glimpses of the surrounding landscape, among shrubs and vegetation typical of the Mediterranean scrub. On the opposite side there is a large paved terrace overlooking the open sea, embellished with an elegant pergola with wood-burning oven and barbecue, an ideal space for outdoor lunches and dinners immersed in the quiet and beauty of the Argentario. LOCATION Despite being in a private position surrounded by greenery, the villa is located a short distance from Porto Santo Stefano, with the port, the seafront, restaurants, boutiques and all the main services within easy reach. The location also allows you to reach Rome and Fiumicino International Airport in about an hour and thirty minutes, making the property particularly interesting even for an international clientele. A residence of rare personality, where architecture, history, privacy and landscape come together in a natural balance. A property designed for those who want to experience the Argentario in an authentic and private dimension, surrounded by the sea and nature, without sacrificing the convenience of services and connections with Rome (Cod. 12390)
