Traum-Villa mit phantastischem Meerblick

Modern Minimalism Meets Mediterranean Soul

This villa is more than a home—it’s a statement. A perfect fusion of modern design, ancient landscape, and energy independence—all just minutes from the Italian Riviera:

Perched above the coastal town of Diano Marina, this exceptional villa blends seamlessly into centuries-old, south-facing olive terraces with their timeless dry-stone walls. The home’s modern-minimalist architecture—with bold industrial touches, an expansive handcrafted terrace, and floor-to-ceiling glass—opens every room to breathtaking views of the unspoilt Ligurian hills rolling down to the sea. This is not just a home—it’s an energy-independent retreat. A solar system with storage battery generates more than the electricity you need for air conditioning, heating, hot water, and a heat pump. A solar thermal system complements the setup, while wood from the property’s own olive terraces fuels the Max Blank designer stove in winter.

Facts & Figures

Layout

At the heart of the villa, a sculptural freestanding concrete spiral staircase rises like an art installation, a striking centrepiece that unites the home’s three levels. The ground floor features a light-filled open-plan living space with about 80sqm net, with kitchen and dining area, and a spacious living room with fireplace, plus a guest bathroom and a separate utility room with its own entrance. Every element has been thoughtfully designed for both comfort and security: Ligurian-inspired metal designer shutters shield the interiors from the summer sun while ensuring privacy and safety. From here, step onto the partially covered 58 sqm terrace offering an expansive area for entertainment and enjoyment. On the upper floor, glass walls open to the master suite with a gym and bathroom. A private, sun-soaked terrace with a glass roof offers a tranquil escape. The lower level houses the remaining bedrooms with sea views and two bathrooms. It opens directly to a gravel garden with cacti and perennials on its own terrace. Lastly, a generous storage cum workshop completes this level.

Garden & Grounds

The 4,500 sqm private estate is a lush Mediterranean paradise—cypresses, oleanders, lavender, herbs, and tall grasses blend effortlessly with architectural landscaping. A steel staircase matching the overall iron concept leads to approximately 90 olive trees, yielding your own organic olive oil. Nestled among the property’s oak trees, a dedicated, shaded area provides an exercise space for dogs, harmoniously integrated into the landscape. There is an automatic irrigation system including a large water tank for the house perimeter and the olive terraces in place. There is a possibility to purchase a further 2,300 sqm of olive grove or forest for potential expansion.
