Description:
Beautiful scenery and a stunning harbour have turned the elegant town of Portofino into one of the most alluring destinations on the Italian Riviera. This tiny resort has an idyllic setting on the Ligurian coast and a wonderfully picturesque harbour. Surrounded by pine trees and olive groves, Portofino retains the charm of the original fishing village despite its jet-set reputation.
The semi-circular waterfront is lined with pastel-coloured houses with frescoed faades and geranium-covered roof terraces and surrounded by pine trees and olive groves. The harbour itself is dotted with a variety of vessels - from little wooden fishing boats to huge yachts with full crews. The cobbled piazzetta in front of the harbour is the best place for eating, drinking or checking out the designer shops on the waterfront. (www.telegraph.co.uk)
On a hillside above the port stands this stunning estate accessed by a private lift from the main square. There are 5 separate houses on the estate one of which is still to be restored. there are stunning views of the port and the Mediterranean and all the houses are surrounded by immaculately kept gardens.
Italian Property has instructions to sell the most exclusive villas in the hills behind and in front of the port area with stunning sea views, private land, boat mooring and helicopter landing pad. These sales are conducted confidentially with discretion: please contact us for details.
