Villa Liberty Albisola 6+2

Summer residence of an aristocratic Genoese family who built it at the beginning of the last century, Villa Liberty Albisola has kept the original layout to which a beautiful swimming pool has been added in recent years. In full compliance with its name (Liberty = Art Nouveau), the villa elegantly exalts that new architectural style which was then rapidly spreading through the towns of the Ligurian Riviera, where noble families built their own holiday homes. Albisola Superiore is one of these, a borgo in Savona renowned for its beach and its wide promenades which, together with Albisola Marina, constitute the territory of the Albisole, famous internationally for the manufacturing of ceramics, an art of ancient origins dating back to the beginning of the 15th century. The colours reflect sober and balanced natural tones and, faithful to the characteristics of Art Nouveau villas, it is surrounded by a lush garden of rare richness for the variety of botanical species. The interiors are characterised by decorated ceilings, precious materials, refined finishes and elegant furnishings, the expression of the care and passion that the current owners have dedicated to this prestigious home, restoring it to the original splendour of the past and ready today to welcome guests for an unforgettable holiday.
