Spanning approximately 700 square meters, the main villa is complemented by a 50-square-meter annex and is enveloped by a breathtaking botanical park of approximately 5,500 square meters, fully enclosed and offering sweeping sea views. Once owned by the Lancaster family, the property exudes timeless elegance, preserving remarkable historical elements including original flooring salvaged from a French abbey, 18th-century boiseries adorning the grand billiard room and study, and an ancient 15th-century fountain displayed in a niche of the dining room.

Property Summary
Nestled on the first hill near Capo Mimosa, just 3 km from Cervo, one of the most beautiful borghi in Italy, Villa nel Blu is an exceptional vacation rental that commands a breathtaking panoramic view over the Ligurian Sea.
