Description
Just 200 steps from the picturesque promenade, nestled in a lush Italian garden of about 1700 square meters, stands Villa Ramona: a historic residence, emblematic among the most enchanting historic villas of Genoa Nervi. Surrounded by lush vegetation, centuries-old olive trees, and towering palms, the villa welcomes with an immediate sense of harmony, tranquility, and charm. Crossing the entrance threshold, one is greeted by a scenic wooden staircase, embellished with finely carved wood paneling and classic-style details, a prelude to the refinement that characterizes every room. The beating heart of the residence is the sumptuous reception room: inlaid parquet with geometric patterns, coffered ceilings, and large Art Nouveau double doors transport the visitor to an elegant early 20th-century atmosphere. This space opens onto a bright dining room and a tastefully refined tea room, both with direct access to the garden — the perfect place for convivial dinners and moments of genuine relaxation. The ground floor is completed by three versatile and independent rooms, ideal for a study, a library, or a hobby room. On the upper floor, the distinctive features of bourgeois villas in neoclassical style are found: sober and frescoed ceilings or with inlaid wooden beams, flooring alternating the warmth of wood with the preciousness of marble graniglia, giving dynamism and character to the spaces. Climbing to the turret, two more rooms are discovered, perfect for a guesthouse, a private study, or an additional kitchen serving the spectacular panoramic terrace, from which the gaze is lost in the blue of the sea.
The basement level houses a living area, laundry, a bathroom, and additional rooms with independent access, ideal for creating a gym with spa.
Villa Ramona represents a living experience for true connoisseurs, for those who dream of a home steeped in history, elegance, and poetry.
Nervi is one of the most fascinating and prestigious districts of Genoa, famous for its unique blend of nature, art, and architecture. Once a holiday destination for the European aristocracy, it still retains its charm. Nestled between the hills and the sea, Nervi is especially known for the Passeggiata Anita Garibaldi, one of the most beautiful in Italy, which winds for over two kilometers along the cliff, offering breathtaking views and unforgettable sunsets. The district is rich in historic parks, noble villas, and museums, including the Gallery of Modern Art and the Luxoro Museum. The presence of boutiques, quality services, international schools, and excellent connections to the center of Genoa make Nervi a highly sought-after residential area. In this context, via Ghirardelli Pescetto represents the most refined heart of this enclave: a quiet residential street, surrounded by greenery, and encircled by historic villas just a few steps from the sea.
