Property Description
La Rondinaia: Historic Amalfi Coast Villa Magnificently situated in Ravello, Italy, on a majestic hillside with unobstructed views of the sparkling Bay of Salerno, La Rondinaia is a castle-like estate drenched in history and surrounded by beauty. Named for its resemblance to a swallow's nest, the sumptuous property was constructed in the early 20th century and owned by author Gore Vidal for more than 30 years. The six-bedroom, seven-bath residence, carved into a precipitous cliff face on four levels, has approximately 10,500 square feet of living space set amidst 6.5 acres of lemon and olive groves, grape arbors, lush landscaped gardens, a pool, pool house and sauna, and panoramic vistas. Barrel-vaulted ceilings, arched doorways and windows, and long, tiled hallways open to spacious rooms with fireplaces, balconies and patios. The private, terraced grounds are traced with serene pathways through overarching trees and tranquil gardens. La Rondinaia is an estate residence of unqualified distinction - a rare opportunity to own a piece of history in a setting of incomparable drama and privacy - whose buyer will have the opportunity to complete and personalize the home's restoration.
