VILLA LUCENTE 6+2

Abruzzo - Teramo - SILVI

Description:

PRIVATE STRUCTURE (lease only - CIR CODE: 067040CVP0051). Built in 2005 with clear inspiration from the Palladian villas, Villa Lucente is a modern villa set on a hill with a view stretching from the sea to the mountains of the Majella and Gran Sasso. Just as Andrea Palladio's buildings are elegant and solemn yet also airy and light, so Villa Lucente respects the principles of balance and symmetry typical of this style. Contemporary furnishings balanced with antiques, travertine floors, classically inspired columns which support the balcony of the master bedroom, everything reflects elegance and balance. Situated in a dominant position, it enjoys a breathtaking view of the sea of Silvi Marina which, thanks to its beautiful beach and crystalline sea, is one of the most sought-after seaside resorts of Abruzzo on the entire Adriatic coast. And it is also a starting point for exploring a territory of enormous unexpressed potential, made up of historic borghi, nature reserves, lush woodland, wild mountains and deep valleys, but also a beautiful coastline in the central Adriatic, where the Costa dei Trabocchi, old fishing machines on stilts, stands out.

Interior:

Villa Lucente has two floors, connected by an internal staircase, for a total of 270 sq m. The main entrance leads to a large open-plan area composed of a cosy living area, with ornamental fireplace, sofa, armchairs and smart TV, and a dining area. On the right, a sliding door leads to the study which can also be used as a bedroom with a queen size sofa bed (140 cm). On the left a door leads to the ground floor sleeping area consisting of a double bedroom, a bathroom with tub and shower and a small storage room used as a laundry with washing machine and dryer. The comfortable, fully-equipped kitchen, with island and stools, table and chairs, is connected to the dining area via a sliding door. Both the living room and the kitchen have access to the outside through French windows. The staircase in travertine, like the floor of the whole house, leads up to the first floor sleeping area with a double bedroom with king size bed and balcony and a twin bedroom (with joinable beds) with sloping ceiling (maximum height 167 cm near the bed and minimum height 78 cm). Serving the two bedrooms is a large bathroom with tub and shower.

Park:

The villa lies in a property of approximately 10,000 sq m. From the automatic vehicle gate, a driveway, adorned with oleanders, cypresses and maritime pines, leads uphill to the villa standing in an elevated position with respect to the road. The part of level garden around the house is about 1200 sq m, full of succulent plants, bougainvilleas, wisteria, geraniums and herbs such as rosemary and thyme, with hedges dividing the level area from the rest of the hilly terrain that descends towards the road and is mainly cultivated with olive and fruit trees. There is also a small grove of maritime pines and a vegetable garden available to guests with tomato plants, aubergines and other seasonal vegetables, enriched with aromatic herbs such as mint, sage and basil. The balcony of the master bedroom, supported by classic white columns, creates a large portico in front of the kitchen and dining area and is the ideal setting for alfresco meals. This side of the garden, in front of the portico, extends over a sloping surface with no fencing so as to allow you to enjoy the breathtaking view in the best way possible. Please notice that photos are taken in spring, therefore flower blossoming, and the colours of the gardens' grass could be different at the moment of your arrival at the villa.

Swimming Pool:

The swimming pool (it can be heated up depending on the external degrees and with 7 days prior notice ) is located a few metres from the house, with a panorama stretching from the sea to the massifs of Abruzzo. The rectangular pool, measuring 4 x 10 m with the depth varying from 1,35 to 1,90 m, is lined in PVC with a mosaic border and has salt purification, internal lights and Roman steps for access to the water. The solarium area, partly paved in travertine marble and partly lawn, is equipped with sunbeds and umbrella. It is available to guests from the first Saturday in May to the first Saturday in October.

TO DO

Location and distances


Villa Lucente is located in the town of Silvi, in a hilly position overlooking the seafront of Silvi Marina, defined by Gabriele D'Annunzio as the "Pearl of the Adriatic". This is a very popular stretch of the Adriatic coast of Abruzzo, due to its 6 km of predominantly sandy beaches. The clear shallow water near the shore, the clean sand, the presence of play areas, services for families and various clubs, are all characteristics that have earned Silvi Marina the title of Green Flag, in addition to that of Blue Flag. There are also several free beaches and, thanks to the peculiarity of this stretch of coast where there are no piers or rocks, it permits you to swim in a truly pristine and special environment. About 60 km away is the Costa dei Trabocchi, or "primitive monsters" as D'Annunzio described them. The trabocchi are fishing machines hoisted on stilts and supported by webs of cables and planks. Today, there are also little "suspended" restaurants where you can enjoy excellent freshly-caught fish in an atmosphere of incomparable beauty. The mountains are also easily accessible, as we are reminded by the view from the swimming pool where the peaks of the Maiella and Gran Sasso tower in the distance. The city of Pescara, the provincial capital, is only 20 km away and here we can admire its seafront, which can be traversed by bike or on foot, with children as well; the tourist port of Marina di Pescara; the famous Ponte del Mare which, in addition to uniting the two shores of Pescara, offers a fantastic view of the Gran Sasso and the Majella, from sea to mountain: a truly beautiful view. It is in Pescara Vecchia that the most important monuments can be seen, such as the Church of Jerusalem and the birthplace of Gabriele D'Annunzio which now houses numerous art collections as well as the original furnishings and some of the objects that belonged to the Poet. The Pineta (pine forest) D'Avalos, also known as the Pineta Dannunziana, is a natural protected area located in the southern area of the municipality of Pescara. It is one of the most renowned nature reserves in Abruzzo, a point of reference for all lovers of outdoor activities and, in general, for those who wish to be in contact with nature. It extends for 53 hectares and is equipped with roads and cycle paths as well as play structures for the little ones: a true oasis of green, silence and nature just a few steps from the sea. Moving inland, the Majella National Park is a reserve that extends between the provinces of L'Aquila, Chieti and Pescara: historic borghi and pristine reserves where it is possible to spot chamois, deer, golden eagles, peregrine falcons, Apennine wolves and the symbolic animal of the area, the Marsican brown bear. And also churches, abbeys, castles, Roman archaeological infrastructures, old borghi, such as fascinating Loreto Aprutino, known for its oil production; Rocca Morice which is part of the Majella National Park; Caramanico and its thermal baths; the Pescara River Reserve; all within a range of 20 and 90 km. About 30 km away is the Megalò Shopping Centre, the largest shopping centre in Abruzzo and one of the largest in Italy with about 100 shops and a 9-theatre cinema.
