About this property
Outdoor amenities: Swimming pool, terrace
The great Gatsby would probably say, "Old man, I found it-it's her!"
This is the 1920s, those of timeless sophistication, noble materials, and architecture designed to last. This villa was born in that period and, although it has crossed time, it retains its original charm. It was, not surprisingly, the historic home of the Consul of Iceland's family-the Kjellen family-and still exudes the elegance of a noble past, but without sacrificing the warmth of a true family home.
With an interior area of 447 m², the villa is spread over three levels and tells, floor by floor, a story of space, comfort and memory.
Ground Floor:
To welcome us, a living, lived-in space: A billiard room perfect for evenings with friends, two comfortable and quiet double bedrooms, and a private bathroom.
Completing the level is a room used as a gym, for daily wellness, and two large storage rooms that are not afraid of accumulation. There is also no shortage of a cellar and a storage room, ideal for those who love order, or simply want to have space for everything.
First Floor:
Here the house reveals its most scenic side. The main entrance, with its ornamental stone fireplace and marble staircase, is a real eye-catcher: Elegant and welcoming.
It is followed by an important study, perfect for working from home or engaging in quiet reading. The guest bathroom, discreet but refined.
The main living room - large, bright - is graced by a working stone fireplace, which warms the room physically and symbolically.
The dining room can comfortably seat up to 15 people, while the American-style eat-in kitchen, with adjoining laundry room, is designed for those who love to cook and share.
Second Floor:
Going up, the villa becomes intimate. The three double bedrooms are large and airy. The three bathrooms spread over the floor provide comfort and privacy, while the walk-in closet is a tidy wardrobe's dream.
Two large terraces complete the level, providing quiet glimpses, full of greenery and light, ideal for slow breakfasts or getting lost in the sunset.
And the comfort?
The 39-square-meter garage with electric opening, the 38-square-meter detached annex ideal for guests or staff, and then again the separate pedestrian and driveway entrances.
Outside, the heart truly opens: A lovingly manicured park with fruit trees, ornamental plants, rose gardens, and automatic irrigation.
The covered veranda seats up to 90 people, with a bathroom, barbecue, wood-burning oven, and an open kitchen that seems designed for summer dinners and laughter under the stars.
And then there are the little luxuries that make all the difference: A glass-and-steel greenhouse, the blue swimming pool, and even a beloved amateur/multipurpose soccer field for entertaining friends and children.
Facades, redone in 2018. And all this, framed by a unique, commanding location on Savignone about 20 minutes from Genoa.
