Description
The best among homes for sale in Liguria, Italy
This apartment is in a small condominium on a hill overlooking the famous Gulf of Poets, Lerici, Liguria.
Clinging – as is typical of houses in Liguria – to the hill above, covered by a dense green arboreal spot, the building dates back to the 70s, designed by Leonardo Savioli, architect and painter of the 20th century of the so-called Tuscan School, known for innovative architectural forms organic and rationalist.
The apartment is open to the blue sky and the sea that opens up in front of it. The large windows of the interiors look towards the sea and, together with the large terrace, create a single open and unchallenged “platform” to enjoy a truly fantastic view.

Interiors and outdoors.
The internal and external environments constitute an ideal homogeneous continuum of rare beauty. The interior design is the result of very careful choices to neutralize the environment as much as possible, projecting it towards the exceptional nature of the large outdoor terrace and the panorama that opens out in front. The choice of the pleasant and restful monochrome of the interiors, with the colors of white and sand, contrasts effectively with the intensity of the marine blue and the sky that stretches out in front. The resin floor harmonizes with the bright and neutral colors of the walls.
The terrace is in golden stone, while the compendium in the kitchen comes from an elegant mix of gray and beige colors. The furniture creates an essential graphic impact, made up of pure and classic geometries. A sizeable pictorial work depicting fish created ad hoc dominates in the living room and conforms to this choice.
The apartment is sold with everything included, exactly as seen in the photos.

Homes for sale in Lerici, Italy: why choose this one
Why buy this property.
It is the dream home for those looking for a house by the sea, with a fantastic view and a quiet location surrounded by nature.
The mild climate of the places, the absolute privacy, and the non-isolated context make it an ideal home to be lived in all year round, whether for private use or high-profile rentals.
Many religious, civil, and military testimonies make Lerici and its surrounding places of great historical and artistic interest: from the village’s foundation in the Etruscan era to the role of a natural port in Roman times, to become a strategic landing place during the Maritime Republic of Genoa. And then under the Napoleonic domination, until it became the province of Sardinia and then part of the Kingdom of Italy from 1861.
The history of Lerici and the Gulf of La Spezia links with three of the greatest writers of English Romanticism: Lord Byron, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and Mary Shelley. In 1822 the Shelleys took up residence at Villa Magni, a small house with arches on the beach of the fishing village of San Terenzo Lerici. Thanks to the presence of the Shelleys, it soon became a point of attraction for the lively colony of English writers and exiles. The tumultuous events of the young romantics who stayed in Lerici have always exerted a strong appeal on writers and poets. Many have come almost on pilgrimage to this magnificent bay. Prominent names include Charles Dickens, George Sand, David Herbert Lawrence, Henry James, Gabriele D’Annunzio, and Virginia Woolf.
Today, the local economy focuses on tourism, favored by the natural beauty of the area and by the presence of a seaside coastline accessible and the beauty of the places of interest. Lerici is part of its territory is included in the Montemarcello-Magra-Vara Regional Natural Park, established to protect the landscape, flora, and fauna. In addition to tourism, high-quality production of olives and wines are vital activities in the area.
Its district Tellaro is associated with the circuit of the most beautiful villages in Italy.
