Historical stone building to renovate with panoramic view and guesthouse in Val di Vara

In the charming village of Tivegna, in the heart of the Vara Valley in Liguria, we offer for sale a fascinating historic property with panoramic views stretching as far as the sea, located on the top of a hill at about 350 metres above sea level. From this privileged position, the view takes in the gentle Ligurian hills and, on the clearest days, reaches as far as Pisa’s famous Piazza dei Miracoli. The property is part of an ancient 16th-century stone palace, an authentic expression of traditional Ligurian architecture. Renovated in the 1990s, the building now offers the opportunity for a new restoration project capable of further enhancing its great potential. The main unit is arranged over three residential levels, each with an independent entrance, a feature that ensures great layout flexibility and allows the creation of multiple self-contained units, making the property attractive also as an investment or a charming hospitality facility. On the ground floor, the entrance with pietra serena stone flooring leads to the living room with a Provençal fireplace and marble floors, from which there is a splendid view all the way to the sea. The built-in masonry kitchen, enhanced with Vietri ceramic tiles, provides access to the cellar consisting of two windowed rooms; the floor is completed by a bathroom with laundry area. The first floor, accessible both via an internal staircase and an external staircase, features a large living room with a Provençal fireplace and marble floors, a portico, kitchen, two rooms, and a bathroom. The second and top floor houses the sleeping area with wooden floors: the master bedroom with walk-in wardrobe and access to the panoramic terrace, a second bedroom, and a bathroom with refined “tessellatum”-style marble mosaics, bathtub and shower. The property also includes a semi-independent guest annex with an open space area, marble fireplace, kitchenette, bathroom, and terrace with sea view; the sleeping area is located on an evocative mezzanine. Outside, a distinctive panoramic garden offers ideal spaces for outdoor living and for enjoying the tranquility of the Ligurian countryside, among hills, olive groves, and glimpses of the sea. This residence represents a rare opportunity to create a prestigious private home or a charming hospitality property, immersed in one of Liguria’s most authentic landscapes, a short distance from the sea and the Cinque Terre.
