Cilento

An Excellent Opportunity to Own a Luxury Villa with Amalfi Coast and Sea Views 

Villa Velius is nestled in mature gardens of beautiful trees and surrounded by verdant countryside. Situated close to the beautiful medieval town of Agropoli and its bars and restaurants, this exquisitely restored and spacious property is within easy reach of the Cilento Coast, UNESCO sites, glorious beaches and quaint seaside villages. The property sits on 3,860 square meters of land and enjoys incredible views across the bay of Salerno and the Amalfi Coast.

THE PROPERTY

Villa Velius has undergone a meticulous ground-up restoration, and this expansive property features four spacious en-suite bedrooms and interior-designed elegant yet comfortable spaces sumptuously furnished with rich fabrics.

Villa Velius blends indoor/outdoor living with cosy interiors and modern specifications to meet the demands of today's family needs.

This one-of-a-kind property is in one of Italy's desirable locations: near enough to visit the beautiful sights of Southern Italy but far enough away from the oversaturated tourist trails to ensure relaxation. Immerse yourself in the local experiences rooted in tradition and nearby restaurants offering an authentic taste of Cilentan cuisine.

The three-story luxury house has many eco-friendly measures, including a new triple-insulated roof with modern thermal insulation, which, while remaining in character with the property through the internal exposed beams, includes a 21kW solar power system, with economic use of air-source heat pumps for domestic hot water, under floor heating and heated swimming pool. The windows are double-glazed with wooden shutters.

Each bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower, and the master bedroom features a signature designer bathroom with an opulent freestanding bath, a double basin vanity unit with gold mirrors and taps, a full walk-in shower, and heated towel rails.

The property also benefits from two-way air conditioning and underfloor heating, with a log fire in the lounge for those cosy winter nights.

Downstairs, the stunning open-plan kitchen comprises a spacious natural wood centre island and breakfast bar with bar stools. The adjacent dining area seats 8, and panoramic windows offer views over the infinity pool, countryside and beautiful Amalfi coastline in the distance. Double doors lead from the kitchen to a large pergola ideal for al fresco, dining, and outside wood-fired pizza oven; an expansive terraced area with a sunken lounge feature and a fire pit.

Complementing this stunning property is the outdoor heated infinity pool overlooking the mature gardens and land extensively populated with olive and lemon trees. "Velius" is Latin for "hidden", and this exquisite private property is simply perfect for those seeking to enjoy time together in a space away from it all, yet near Campania's stunning coastlines, National Parks, vibrant towns, and mountains.

THE LOCATION 

This beautiful property is close to Ogliastro Cilento, located on a hill 4 km from the sea. Agropoli is a mere 10-minute drive away with a restaurant-lined Lungomare by the sea, looking up to its historic cobbled street centre and vibrant atmosphere.

Villa Velius invites relaxation but is close enough to the local historical gems of Campania and the beautiful Cilento Coast, with its pretty seaside towns and coveted Blue Flag beaches. 

FURNISHINGS AND FITTINGS

The property is offered fully fitted and equipped, including lines and all kitchenware.

The region of Campania offers the best of Italy with a year-round temperate climate, warm hospitality, stunning Blue Flag beaches, and some of the best historical locations.
