Discover Italy's Costa Smeralda
Turquoise waters and fine-sand beaches extend for miles here in Costa Smeralda, an alluring destination along the northeast coast of Sardinia, Italy. Because the villa is only minutes away from the village of Porto Cervo, the owners can enjoy waterfront views, as well as fine dining and shopping.
Stone Pavers Exude Old World Charm
Large, asymmetrical stone pavers give the villa a sense of Old World character, and so ensure that the home complements the region's historic architecture. Following the path ahead takes visitors through an idyllic pergola and into the garden.
Garden Surrounding Italian Villa
The property is just as impressive up-close, with a garden that both borders the seashore and gently embraces the Italian villa. As visitors approach, they'll be treated to a sense of tranquility and the bright colors of blooming flowers.
Outdoor Spa Includes Ocean Views
A wood bridge not only echoes the design of the deck, but also connects the swimming pool to the spa area. Here, the owners can sit back and soak up the sun's rays, as well as the crystal-clear views of the ocean.
Secluded Spot for Admiring Yachts
Watching schooners and yachts sail by is a breeze thanks to this corner overlooking the water. During the day, the owners can sunbathe on the chaise, and at night, they can curl up, catch the sunset and enjoy a glass of wine.
Deck Boasts Comfortable Chaises
Cool, contemporary chaises line the edge of the deck and invite the owners to lounge in total comfort. With the pool just ahead and views of the ocean in the distance, this outdoor space definitely feels like an escape.
Covered Porch Provides Shade, Extra Seating
When the owners need a little relief from the sun, they can slip beneath the covered porch where it's a little cooler. Here, an outdoor sectional gives the room to stretch out, while a wood trunk and wicker baskets store extra pillows and blankets.
Spacious Lounge for Sunbathing
On the other side of the pool, a generously-sized deck gives the owners and their guests plenty of room to lounge. Custom tables by the chairs keep cocktails and other beverages within arm's reach.
Living Room Features Walls of Windows
Stepping inside the home reveals a bright and airy living room, with broad windows and sliding glass doors that maximize ocean breezes and sunlight. The villa also includes six bedrooms, five baths, a sophisticated dining area, open kitchen and eclectic art pieces.
Villa Defined By Sophisticated Color Palette
Much like the exterior of the home, the interior is defined by a chic color palette of white, dove grey and fawn. Cool white sofa covers and flowing curtains lighten the living room as well.
Deluxe Kitchen With Large Island
A full-sized kitchen is a must for a villa this luxurious. With smooth, sand-colored cabinets, stainless appliances and a large island, the owners will have no problem hosting a large gathering.
Spa Bathroom With Glass-Enclosed Shower
After a day of sunbathing and swimming, the owners can retreat to their master bath for a little R&R. A floating vanity keeps extra towels and other essentials on hand, while the glass-enclosed shower and built-in bench create a spa-like atmosphere.
Soothing Neutral Guest Bedroom
Cool white linens and neutral accents help this guest bedroom feel clean and comfortable. A sliding glass door opens onto a private patio.

Outdoor Space Worthy of a Garden Party

Thanks to its clean, contemporary design, the swimming pool seems to blend right into the horizon. Trees frame the view, which helps to draw the eye from the deck to the ocean.
Walkway Lined With Purple Flowers
