## Description

In the heart of the most authentic Ligurian Riviera, between Sanremo and Bordighera, Ospedaletti has always preserved a rare atmosphere, made of light, quiet, and Mediterranean beauty. The mildness of the climate, the lush gardens, and the widespread sense of peace make it one of the most fascinating and exclusive locations on the coast. It is in this privileged setting that Villa Tornaghi rises, an extraordinary designer residence immersed in nature and overlooking the sea. The property, approximately 450 sqm, develops harmoniously on a private plot of 2,200 sqm that slopes towards the sea, among Mediterranean essences, panoramic views, and extraordinarily rich vegetation. Here nature seems to merge with architecture in perfect balance: intense blooms, rare botanical species, paths through the greenery, a romantic small pond, and the delicate flow of water create an atmosphere of absolute poetry and privacy. The villa was born in 1952 from a project by Alberto Rosselli, a celebrated Italian architect and designer, a protagonist alongside Gio Ponti and Fornaroli in one of the most important experiences of twentieth-century Italian architecture. Built where the legendary "Casa delle Fate" once stood—beloved by writer Katherine Mansfield during her stay in Ospedaletti and later destroyed in 1945—the residence still preserves today that suspended and almost literary aura that makes this place unique and unrepeatable, which led to it being named Villa Paradiso. The architecture of the villa constantly dialogues with the surrounding landscape. The main rooms open towards the sea through large glass surfaces and scenographic openings that capture the Riviera light at every moment of the day. The long facade, elegant and dynamic, creates games of shadow and transparency of extraordinary charm. On the main floor, a magnificent living room with an important marble fireplace opens onto a spectacular full-height window overlooking the sea and the covered panoramic terrace, offering a visual continuity of rare suggestion. The living area also includes a refined separate dining room, a large and independent kitchen, two bedrooms, two elegant bathrooms, a guest bathroom, and a convenient laundry room. The upper floor hosts two further bedrooms with splendid sea views and two bathrooms. The master suite enjoys direct access to a large sunny private terrace, a perfect place to experience the quiet and colors of the Mediterranean in total privacy. At the basement level are found an additional living room with sea view, a separate kitchen, pantry, cellar, three storage rooms, a large bathroom, and garage. An extraordinary protagonist of the property is the Mediterranean garden, conceived as a natural extension of the Ligurian landscape. Born from the sensitivity and passion of Mrs. Emma Tornaghi and subsequently by the current owners, this green space does not appear as a built garden, but as a portion of nature spontaneously re-bloomed. The privileged position, facing south in the warmest and brightest point of the Ospedaletti basin, allows for exceptionally lush vegetation: among pines, cypresses, oleanders, and mimosa trees thrive citrus fruits, rare blooms, and even bananas growing outdoors in an explosion of colors and scents. Easy to reach and perfectly integrated into one of the most exclusive contexts on the Riviera, Villa Tornaghi represents a residence unique in its kind: a home of great architectural and cultural value, suspended between history, nature, and sea, designed for those who wish to live the timeless charm of the most authentic Italian elegance. Find Villa published in DOMUS magazine issue number 292 from March 1954 as well as in several other architecture books such as ARCHITETTURA IN LIGURIA DOPO IL 1945 (Architecture in Liguria after 1945), De Ferrari editions.
