Poggio near Sanremo – Exclusive Building Plot with Beautiful Sea Views and Approved Villa Project for Sale

High above the sparkling Mediterranean Sea, nestled among the gentle hills of the Ligurian Riviera, this exceptional property enjoys a privileged location in Poggio, a charming hamlet of Sanremo. Situated at approximately 250 metres above sea level, it offers a rare combination of Mediterranean nature, privacy, beautiful sea views, and proximity to the coast and all the amenities of Sanremo. Beaches, restaurants, shopping facilities, the marina, and cultural attractions are all just a short drive away.

The plot extends over 3.519 m² and is distinguished by its generous size and exceptionally spacious terraced landscape, a rare feature in Liguria. Unlike many hillside properties with steep and limited usable areas, this land offers broad, almost level terraces, providing ideal conditions for extensive outdoor living spaces, landscaped gardens, and the construction of a swimming pool. Thanks to its optimal south-east orientation, the property enjoys the morning sun from the earliest hours of the day, accompanied by beautiful views over the Mediterranean Sea.

A particular highlight of this offering is the fully approved and paid building project. All planning permissions have already been obtained, and all related fees have been settled, allowing the future owner to begin construction immediately without additional administrative procedures or project costs – a considerable advantage in a region where building approvals often require significant time.

Currently, the property features a traditional natural stone Rustico of approximately 70 m². The approved plans envisage the demolition of the existing stone building and the construction of an exclusive contemporary villa with approximately 100 m² of living space. The elegant flat-roof design and expansive floor-to-ceiling windows create bright, open interiors while seamlessly connecting the indoor and outdoor living areas. The centrepiece of the villa will be a spacious open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, perfectly designed to showcase the magnificent sea views. The layout also includes two bedrooms, a modern shower room, a generous garage, and a technical/storage room.

Alternatively, the approved new-build project does not have to be implemented. Instead, the existing natural stone Rustico may be restored and extended. Under current planning regulations, the existing building volume may be increased by up to 30%, offering an attractive option for buyers wishing to preserve the authentic character of a traditional Ligurian stone house while combining it with modern comfort.

The construction of a swimming pool of up to 50 m² is generally permitted and can be applied for separately. The approved project also includes solar panels, combining contemporary living with sustainable energy generation.

Access to the property is particularly convenient. A wide, fully asphalted road leads directly to the plot and remains easily accessible throughout the year. Water and electricity connections are located nearby and can be connected without difficulty.
