It took courage to buy and restore this dilapidated turn – of – the century house, which sits miraculously on one of the many hills of the Liguria, an Italian coast next to a France border.
Nevertheless, the outcome was never in doubt; the resurrection of villa Negre was bound to happen. Today, the handsome yellow and white building overlooks the valley from the summit of its green hill. To reach it you have to drive up a narrow, winding path. Once there, you discover that everything possible has been done to preserve the 1900’s feel of the place.
It is an enchanting country home with a rustic flavour, a location rediscovered and recovered for the summer vacation, when coolness is preserved by the ample vaults and the small pool used as a watering hole in the formal vine yard. A place of its hospitable and seductive nature devoted to leisure, resting, reading, and time for sharing with fiends. Where, between sunny terraces and resting spots it can be chosen to dedicate oneself to the preparation of abundant Liguria foods, opt for the pensive and intimate qualities of the various ground floor locations.
The aim was to keep the architecture and details simple, just as a country house would be.
