The house

Almost a thousand years of walls, and a home ready to live in

This house for sale in Ventimiglia is a 140-square-metre apartment on the ground floor of an apricot-coloured villa. The building began as an olive mill in 1077. The walls are still those walls, thick enough to keep the rooms cool on the hottest days. The renovation kept the arches, the green shutters and the tower that closes the court.

Three private gardens open from the living room, within a shared park looked after by a gardener. There are two terraces, a wood-fired oven and a barbecue corner. The apartment is furnished: an open kitchen, three bedrooms, two bathrooms. Two covered parking spaces and two cellars belong to the property. An electric gate closes the court.

Seglia and Sant'Anna are a quiet edge of town, about two kilometres from the sea. If you are looking for a home with a garden in Liguria, on the Italian Riviera and close to the French border, the address is Via Gallardi.

Liguria

Between the Italian Riviera and the French border

Ventimiglia is the last Italian town on the Riviera dei Fiori. Via Gallardi, between Seglia and Sant'Anna, stays set apart: olive trees, pines, the hill behind. The sea is about two kilometres away, without living on the promenade.

Menton is the commune across the border. The coast continues into France, and the motorway links Genoa and the rest of Liguria. For anyone searching for a house for sale in Liguria from abroad, the point on the map is exact.
