This traditionally Italian villa sits pretty in pink near the beaches of Italy’s west coast. It’s a seven-minute drive (or leisurely half-hour walk) to the soft sand of Marina Velca Beach. But you may not want to venture any further than the delightful garden. Here you’ll find an azure swimming pool set in the manicured lawn and a charming dining area under the shade of a pergola. Hedges offer a little privacy and the garden is bursting with magenta bougainvillaea and climbing plants up the walls. Like any traditional Italian villa, the kitchen is the heart of the home. There’s a rustic retro vibe to the orange tiles and curtained cupboards, and the real highlight is the old bread oven still on display. The master bedroom up in the eaves is a romantic spot with its old wooden ceiling whispers of times gone by, and the second bedroom has a desk should you need to work remotely.
