Dolceacqua / DA 913

Property description

Dolceacqua is a picture-perfect medieval village in the Ligurian hinterland, some 15 minutes away from the sea. Arriving from airport Nice the road snakes along the Côte d’Azur, past glamorous Monaco and Menton, across the Italian border inot Ventimiglia and Bordighera. From here it is a mere 15 minute drive into the hinterland before reaching the picturesque medieval town of Dolceacqua. With the majestic Dolceacqua Castle nestling among its green surroundings, it is obvious how the painter Claude Monet drew his inspiration for his painting “Le Chateau de Dolceacqua” from this magical place with its lively atmosphere. The well known stone bridge stretching over the Nervia river connects the village part Borgo with the older Terra quarter and its meandering mews, home to many galleries and small shops. Dolceacqua’s highlight is the impressive Castello dei Doria, which was once in the hands of the influential Doria family from Genova who had strong ties with the principality of Monaco. To this day, Dolceacqua holds strong connections to Monaco which will be manifested by a twinning in November 2023.

This charming townhouse with the most beautiful roof terrace and stunning views over the stone bridge and the Doria Castle is situated in this very special medieval town. It is located right on the Piazza and has been renovated over the last years with much attention to detail. The approx. 85 qm living space are split over four floor levels. A staircase originating from the communal entrance shared with the neighbours connects with the second floor access to the flat. It opens into the fully equipped kitchen with French balcony and view over the mews. The kitchen is well equipped with oven, induction cooker, boiler and fittings for washing machine, tumble dryer and dishwasher. The adjacent dining room also features a French balcony. Following on is a living room with pellet fired stove. A staircase connects to the upper floors with 3 bedrooms (fitted air conditioning/heating) and 2 bathrooms (heated).
