Apricale – Village House with Panoramic Terrace for Sale

This characterful Ligurian village property extends over three levels in the historic centre of Apricale, combining authentic village life with tranquillity, privacy and exceptionally beautiful views.

One of the property’s most appealing features is its sought-after south-west orientation, which provides plenty of natural light and allows the spacious terrace to enjoy uninterrupted views across the green hills of the Ligurian hinterland towards the picturesque hilltop villages of Perinaldo and Isolabona.

Offering approximately 100 sqm of living space over three floors, the property comprises two very spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms and a generous open-plan living, dining and kitchen area with direct access to the terrace.

The two lower floors offer similarly spacious layouts. On the first level, a large entrance and hallway provide ample space for a wardrobe and practical built-in storage. From here, you enter the first generously sized bedroom, which offers enough room not only for the sleeping area but also for a cosy reading corner, a workspace or a small private sitting area. A bathroom with shower completes this floor.

The floor above features a second equally spacious bedroom. A generous hallway and an adjoining bathroom with bathtub complete this level. Having the bedrooms on separate floors creates a pleasant sense of privacy and makes the property particularly suitable for accommodating guests.

The heart of the home is the top floor, which also forms the attic level. Here, a bright and spacious open-plan room combines the kitchen, living and dining areas. An open fireplace and light-coloured exposed roof beams create a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Two French doors lead directly onto the covered panoramic terrace of approximately 11 sqm, beautifully extending the living space outdoors. A separate storage room provides additional practical space.

In summer 2026, both the roof and terrace were completely renewed. The new roof structure, with its light-coloured exposed timber beams, gives the top floor a well-maintained, open and contemporary feel while retaining the property’s traditional character.

The property itself was carefully renovated in the early 1990s and remains in well-maintained, authentic condition. Terracotta-coloured floor tiles double-glazed wooden windows, and the open fireplace underline its traditional charm. The boiler for the mains gas central heating system was replaced in 2023.

The location on the edge of the pedestrianised historic centre is particularly convenient: it is possible to drive close to the house for loading and unloading, while free parking is available along the road just a few steps away.

The combination of panoramic views, a sunny terrace, privacy and generously proportioned rooms make this a particularly attractive property in the historic heart of Apricale.

Apricale is considered one of Liguria’s most romantic medieval hilltop villages. Excellent restaurants and cafés, a small shop for everyday essentials and the beautiful surrounding countryside, with numerous opportunities for hiking and cycling, all contribute to the village’s authentic atmosphere. The coastal towns of Bordighera and Ventimiglia can be reached in approximately 25 minutes by car, while Nice and its international airport are just over an hour away.
