[ENG] - Villa Mostaccini is without doubt one of the most significant Villa’s along the Riviera with an impressive, elevated and private position giving panoramic views over the town, over to France, and out to sea. Meticulously and cleverly designed to capture every aspect of its surrounds and renovated to the most exacting of standards it really is in a league of its own. Whilst having being meticulously and extensively renovated, particular care has been taken to retain the original features and character of the Villa; excellent ceiling heights, open fireplaces, ornate archways and terraces.


These, together with the addition of modern fixtures and fittings, along with an effortless floorplan, have created an extremely comfortable family Villa fit for modern living in a prime position. Villa Mostaccini is a wonderful house for entertaining with the floorplan flowing effortlessly throughout. Of particular note are the elegantly grand reception rooms – a most magnificent living and entertaining space – that are serviced by a professional kitchen that can cater for up to 200 guests. Moreover, with 6 guest bedrooms and the additional 2 bedroom staff apartment, there is ample accommodation to cater for a large number of family members and guests.


Location
Arguably one of the most sought after locations in the World, the Riviera is the perfect setting for this immaculate Villa. The sun setting across the water creates some of the most spectacular skylines anywhere, and it is easy to see why this locale is so highly prized as a holiday destination. Just 10 minutes from the French border and 20 minutes away from Monaco, Villa Mostaccini sits on top of one of the most panoramic hills of the entire Riviera.


Bordighera has a particular climate, which can be noted by the self-sown vegetation and some of the botanic species found in the gardens of the Villa. There are higher temperatures in winter and milder ones in summer, with a very low humidity rate compared with the averages. Nice Airport is about 35 minutes away (50km) and offers a number of national and international flights.

[ITA] - "Villa Mostaccini" è una delle più importanti Ville in Liguria situata a soli 20 minuti dal Principato di Monaco, in posizione dominante sulla città di Bordighera, sul Mar Ligure e sulla costa della vicina Costa Azzurra.


Meticolosamente ristrutturata ai più alti standard, questa Villa edificata nel 1932 in stile antico rinascimento marchigiano, mantiene inalterate le caratteristiche e i particolari originali: meravigliosi soffitti alti, camini, logge e terrazzi decorati si fondono alle moderne finiture e rendono questa proprietà una rara e prestigiosa dimora familiare.


Nel piano nobile troviamo i grandi ed eleganti saloni, ambienti unici e maestosi, serviti da una magnifica cucina. Una importante scala in travertino porta al piano superiore dove oltre alla splendida camera padronale, troviamo le 6 camere per gli ospiti. Il piano mansarda, open-space di 450 m2 ,è ideale per sala conferenze, cinema o biliardo, mentre il piano giardino è interamente dedicato alla zona Spa/Benessere con palestra, alla cucina professionale che può servire oltre 200 ospiti e agli appartamenti per lo staff. Tutti i piani sono anche collegati da ascensore interno.


La Cappella privata, annessa alla Villa, rende ancor più unica questa favolosa dimora.


Una cantina di 60 m2 (ricavata nel vecchio bunker della 2a Guerra Mondiale) e un garage di oltre 200 m2 completano la proprietà.

Da qui, nel 1884, il pittore francese Claude Monet dipinse alcune delle sue opere più famose.
