VILLA LACONELLA 8+4

Toscana - Livorno - CAPOLIVERI/ISOLA D'ELBA

Description:

PRIVATE STRUCTURE (lease only - CIR CODE: 049004LTN1085). Villa Laconella is located on the south coast of the island of Elba, on the Gulf of Lacona, enclosed in an embrace of Mediterranean scrub where the colours and scents of nature mingle, gifting strong emotions. Its privileged position allows you to reach two of the most beautiful beaches on the island in just a few minutes on foot with a pleasant stroll on a partly-paved and partly-dirt road, accessible from a small gate in the garden: the beach of Lacona which, with its 1200 metres of white sand, is one of the largest beaches on the island and, next to it, the beach of Laconella, also sandy but with a beautiful cove of stones and pebbles on its right. Once past the entrance gate, the naturally shaded drive leads to this house which has been lovingly restored and furnished by three brothers who have personally supervised the internal and external organisation of the areas in order for it to be lived in both inside and outside. Villa Laconella is located on a sloping-down ground and so it has two not communicating floors, a ground floor and a basement floor, both reachable from the external, following the conformation of the terrain on which it is located. The two floors do not communicate with each other, and neither do the three residential units on the upper floor and this is precisely one of the strong points of the house as it offers complete independence to large groups of guests who choose it, though maintaining a natural unity of all spaces, thus making it the ideal solution for groups of large families. The villa is furnished in a modern style, with the prevailing tones of white standing out against the warm colours of the floor and the beige and blue of the details; natural light is the protagonist, entering through the large windows and the French windows. The internal and external areas are equipped with every comfort and it will be surprisingly easy to get used to, and to abandon yourself to, the company of the scents of the garden mingling with the smell of salt and the sound of the sea echoing in the background.

VILLA LACONELLA HAS BEEN SUBJECTED TO A CHECK-UP BY A TECHNICAL RESPONSIBLE BEFORE THE BEGINNING OF THE SEASON, TO ENSURE CONSISTENCY OF THE DESCRIPTION, ACCESSORIES LISTED ON THIS PAGE AND THEIR PRESENT STATE OF OPERATION/MAINTENANCE, TO GUARANTEE QUALITY, CLEANLINESS AND COMFORTS TO ALL CLIENTS WHO WILL STAY HERE.

Interior:

The main access drive continues down the slight slope of the road to the main entrance which is located on the basement floor. The main entrance leads to a large open-plan living area with open kitchen, dining table and sofa. A hallway leads to a bathroom with shower while a door leads to the sleeping area consisting of a bedroom with a bunk bed and a private wardrobe, communicating via a sliding door with a double bedroom, which can also be accessed from the outside via a French window. From the external area, a few steps lead to the ground floor, which can also be reached from a path from the parking area. On this floor are three non-communicating units with three entrances. Entering the first French window on the left, we come to a living area with kitchenette, dining table, TV and sofa; a hallway leads to a double bedroom and a bathroom with shower and to a room with two bunk beds. Entering the French window on the right we come to a living area with kitchenette, table, TV and sofa; a hallway leads to a bathroom with shower and to a double bedroom facing the back of the villa and which, if necessary, through an internal door, communicates with the bedroom with bunk beds, making these two units intercommunicating. The third entrance via a French window is located in the centre and leads to a completely independent unit, composed of a living area with kitchenette, table, TV and sofa; then a bathroom with shower and a double bedroom with French window facing the terrace in front of the entrance. All three entrances have their own terraced areas equipped with awnings or umbrellas, furnished with tables and chairs. Please notice that the bathrooms are without bidet.

Park:

The beautiful garden surrounding the property extends over 10000 sq m and is partially fenced and entirely passable. As soon as you pass the main entrance gate you come to the handy parking area where you are immediately immersed in typical Mediterranean scrub. The garden is rich in the classic vegetation of the island of Elba with cork trees, pines and brooms which offer many shaded areas. Among this luxuriant vegetation are local wild brambles, planted in the garden and blending in well with the juniper and rosemary. There are also beds of ornamental plants, as well as various herbs. In front of the main entrance of the villa is the tiled outdoor area, with gazebo, table and chairs and equipped with a mobile barbecue. Next to the pool, a flight of stone steps across the garden leads to a small gate leading to the road to the beach of Laconella, just a few hundred metres away and reachable on foot. At the end of the driveway, next to the parking area, is a stone structure with the laundry room, a handy outdoor sink and a shower. 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 is located in front of the external living area and is reached via a tiled path or up a few stone steps from the ground floor. The pool area is bordered by a beautiful classical style colonnade and elegant statues on one side and a low stone wall on the other. The irregular-shaped pool (a rectangle with a rounded side from which Roman steps lead down into the water), measuring 7 x 6.5 m with a constant depth of 1.4 m, is lined in travertine and equipped with salt purification and internal lighting. Surrounding it is the solarium area with travertine paving and furnished with sunbeds while, adjacent to the solarium, under the shade of a beautiful gazebo, is an external seating area with sofas. Nearby the pool area (close to the laundry) is an outdoor hot and cold-water shower. The pool is open from the last Saturday of April until the first Saturday in October.

TO DO

Location and distances


Elba is the largest island of the Tuscan Archipelago and the third largest of the Italian islands. The island is only 23 km from the mainland and is well connected thanks to the Piombino maritime station, where the shipping companies (Toremar, Blu Navy and Moby Lines) offer multi-day trips throughout the year, allowing you to reach the ports of Portoferraio (the main one), Cavo and Rio Marina in just one hour of navigation and with the possibility of embarking your own transport. For those who travel on foot, it is possible to take the hydrofoil which reaches Portoferraio in just 35 minutes. The island also has an airport, located in Marina di Campo, active only during the summer and connected only to a few airports. The island is part of the Tuscan Archipelago National Park together with Pianosa, Capraia, Montecristo, Giglio, Gorgona and Giannutri. Extending over an area of 224 sq km, you can find very varied landscapes and unique flora and fauna. Even the beaches of the island are very varied: ranging from the beautiful beaches of white sand and smooth rocks in the western part, such as those of Marina di Campo, Cavoli, Fetovaia, Seccheto and Sant'Andrea, to those of golden sand in both the central part and the south and north-west, such as Procchio, Biodola, Lacona and Lido di Capoliveri. Not to forget the white pebble beaches on the coast west of Portoferraio where the sea becomes incredibly transparent. The partial views offered by the island are also beautiful, such as the Costa del Sole, in the south-western part of the island, a real work of nature: with its 10 km of coastline, it offers a unique view of the islands of Montecristo, Pianosa and Corsica, where bays and beaches with facilities follow one after another, with cliffs that are gentle or rise steeply above the sea, with breathtaking views and unforgettable sunsets. Along this stretch of coast you will experience sensations, not only of pleasant well-being but also and above all sensations of experiencing your holiday in the full sense of the term. The island of Elba also has centuries of history which can be clearly seen in the countless places of worship, such as the Romanesque churches and parish churches, but also in the fortifications and watchtowers which date back to ancient times and are the sign of the various dominations that have alternated on the island. Elba is also inevitably linked to the figure of Napoleon Bonaparte who was exiled here and who, in his ten months of permanency, left an indelible mark, including the increase in vineyards and the production of what today it is the symbolic wine of the island: the Aleatico. Aleatico is a dessert wine made with dried grapes, the result of a long process of drying the grapes and vinification that is produced only on Elba, The island of Elba is also linked to traditions and folklore with the numerous village festivals and is very lively during the summer, offering fun and entertainment for all ages.
