Property Description
Here, in the heart of the village, is a spacious, five centuries-old village house for sale. It was once the oldest and highest building of the hamlet and belonged to the castle of Prelà Castello. Since the castle didn’t have sea-view, the loggia of this house was used as a watchtower and, if necessary, they blew the horns to alert (hence the name Cornarolo).
Even after its restoration, the ancient elements such as vaults, ceiling beams, niches, wall cupboards and open fireplaces have been preserved. A highlight is the columned loggia, from where you can let your gaze wander far across the landscape down to the sea.
A small garden, which belongs to the property, is an idyllic place to sit or to grow vegetables. In a few minutes you can walk to the village square of Pantasina, where there is also a grocery shop.

On the ground floor there is a large, central living-dining room with open kitchen area and skylights as well as a cozy salon with an open marble fireplace and beautiful views. On this level there are also three spacious bedrooms and a bathroom with a large bathtub.
A slate staircase leads to the first floor with a further bedroom, a shower room and the covered columned loggia with seating. From here you can enjoy breathtaking views all the way down to the Mediterranean!
Just past the front door, on the left, a door and stairs are leading down to the spacious basement. In addition to a large storage space, it can also be used as a wine cellar.
The small, easy-care garden plot of approx. 50 sqm is directly opposite the house entrance. Here you can create an idyllic sitting area or plant flowers and vegetables.
