Monument of Modern Architecture
In 1988, as a result of the ban on fine arts, the home was designated as a National Monument of Modern Architecture. Carlo Luigi Daneri, a student of Le Corbusier, created it in 1934 and finished it in 1938. It is considered to be one of the most authentic instances of the rationalist movement.
Soon after the villa was constructed, it was featured in the Italian publications “Costruzioni Casabella” (October 1940) and “Domus” (January 1941), and it was also featured in “Abitare” (March 1983 and October 2023) in the years that followed. A collection of Roman and Byzantine art is displayed at the entrance of the villa, which has also played home to some of the most well-known figures in the fields of art and architecture, as well as advertisements and films produced by Netflix.
In addition to being situated on a cliff that overlooks the Ligurian Sea, the villa is comprised of three stories and features spacious and pleasant rooms, each of which is equipped with broad panoramic windows that look out over the sea. The structure is characterised by a clear distribution of the internal spaces, which are furnished with several authentic pieces of furniture from the historical period. This building is in constant interaction with the landscape that surrounds it.
This property is surrounded by 2.3 hectares of park and garden that is characterised by a huge variety of plants and bushes, a swimming pool, and access to a private beach. The main villa is 950 square metres in size, and it also includes two annexes that add up to around 1100 square metres. A total of nine bedrooms and six bathrooms are included in this residence.
