Charming Villa in Diano Marina – Idyllic Refuge on the Ligurian Riviera

Located above the coastal town of Diano Marina , this detached villa in Mediterranean style combines privacy, spectacular sea views, and year-round comfort. Surrounded by approximately 4,000 m² of private land with about 80 olive trees , the property offers a rare combination of tranquility and good accessibility, yet is close to the vibrant life of the Italian Riviera. The villa offers approximately 125 m² of living space on one level, complemented by spacious terraces, a swimming pool, ample parking, and a fully developed basement. The living area is arranged on one floor. Two areas of the living area are separated by two steps and can be connected by a wheelchair ramp. The house is therefore barrier-reduced (although not barrier-free) and has successfully served as a comfortable home for many years for older residents who rely on a wheelchair. The large terrace in front of the house offers an unobstructed panoramic view over the Gulf of Diano to the medieval village of Cervo. The surrounding hills are safe from further development, preserving the quiet atmosphere and open landscape that make this location so special. Despite the quiet location, everyday life is remarkably convenient. The beaches of Diano Marina are just a few minutes away by car. The nearest supermarket is about 10 minutes away, while the provincial capital Imperia with its extensive shopping facilities, cafes, restaurants, and two weekly outdoor markets is only about 15-20 minutes away. The area is known for its diverse leisure activities. The newly established Riviera bike path along the former coastal railway line connects Diano Marina with Imperia, Sanremo, and many picturesque coastal villages. Hiking, cycling, sailing, swimming, and exploring the historic towns and olive valleys in western Liguria are possible all year round. The property has been partially modernized, including the installation of a Viessmann heat pump and new electricity , and has an approved building certificate (RRE) , which provides international buyers with additional security. Whether you are looking for a permanent residence, a retirement home, or a retreat on the Mediterranean for all seasons – this villa offers a rare opportunity to enjoy privacy, nature, and the sea while being close to all important amenities.
