Historic villa, Strada Costiera

We are pleased to present for sale a detached villa of approximately 200 sqm, set in a panoramic position halfway along the Strada Costiera, offering stunning open views over the Gulf of Trieste.

The property, fully renovated about ten years ago, is arranged over several levels with a functional layout: on the ground floor, an entrance, kitchen and laundry room; on the lower level, a spacious room currently used for storage, easily convertible into a study, home office or guest bedroom; on the upper floor, the sleeping area with a bathroom, master bedroom and two further rooms.

The property is surrounded by a large garden with fruit trees and will be sold with an already approved project for the construction of two parking spaces at street level and a lift, which will allow access without climbing the first 96 steps. The villa is currently connected to the road via two flights of stairs.

The sea is easily reached just across the road: a public stairway of approximately 220 steps leads in about 3 minutes to a swimmable stretch of coastline. From the rear of the property, pedestrian paths along the Karst ridge offer ideal routes for scenic walks.

Built in 1914 as the Pensione Vegetariana Santa Croce on the initiative of Robert Lutz, the villa represents a piece of local history and was later transformed into a private residence while preserving its original character.

The sale includes exclusively the main villa; the adjacent wooden annex, with independent access, is available separately.
