Overlooking the seafront of Forte dei Marmi, in one of the most sought-after locations in Versilia, this extraordinary luxury residence with swimming pool stands out among the villas of Forte dei Marmi for the generosity of its spaces, the scenographic garden and the absolute uniqueness of the materials used.
Built in the 1970s both as a private residence and as a prestigious showroom for one of the leaders in the marble sector, today this property represents a rare opportunity for those seeking a prestigious seafront villa, with rooms far larger than the standards of the area.
The luxury villa for sale in Forte dei Marmi is arranged over two above-ground levels plus a basement level, for a total of approximately 595 sqm, in addition to a garage and storage rooms of about 50 sqm, and is surrounded by a park of approximately 2,180 sqm with a swimming pool and a scenographic garden, perfectly landscaped and expertly illuminated.
From the vehicular entrance, the scale of the property is immediately evident: the large maneuvering courtyard allows comfortable parking for 4–5 cars, a rare feature in such close proximity to the sea.
The interiors are a true triumph of fine marbles and extraordinary stones, carefully selected and laid book-matched or mirror-matched, with dedicated blocks sourced from the quarries of the Apuan Alps and from various foreign countries. The grand entrance hall and the main floor are paved with Arabescato del Corchia marble in large mirrored slabs, creating an effect of continuity and depth. The main living room, dining room and master bathroom are clad in Calacatta marble, while the scenic staircase and the kitchen enhance the purity of Carrara Statuario marble, in a constant dialogue between classical elegance and architectural rigor.
The internal layout was conceived from the outset to naturally accommodate both private living and moments of representation. The main levels on the ground and first floors, each measuring approximately 257 sqm, offer airy rooms with generous ceiling heights and multiple views over the garden and the sea. The beauty of this location guarantees splendid views from the villa of both the sea, with magnificent sunsets, and the Apuan Alps.
On the ground floor there is a large entrance hall connecting the living areas, dining room and lounge, which flow seamlessly into one another, a spacious kitchen, as well as a generously sized master suite with master bedroom, walk-in wardrobe and en-suite bathroom, all designed to host family and guests in a setting of absolute privacy.
On the first floor, five large double bedrooms — all with proportions significantly above the average for villas in Forte dei Marmi — are combined with a spacious study, perfect as a private office, library, panoramic lounge or additional bedroom. Here the floors are enriched with further stone varieties: Rosa del Portogallo, Sete Grigie and Rosa dei Carpazi, with en-suite bathrooms finished in Rosa del Portogallo, Rosso di Bordeaux and Brazilian Onyx.
Each room is conceived as a unique piece, with material combinations that tell the story of the property and the collecting taste of its original owner.
The basement level of approximately 80 sqm, with independent external access, houses a large laundry room, cellar, storage rooms and technical room, ensuring perfect functionality without interfering with the representative areas. This articulation of levels allows extremely flexible use of the villa, ideal both as a private residence and as a representative home for a demanding family.
The villa underwent a skilful renovation in the early 2000s: all electrical systems were replaced and certified, as well as the air conditioning system, present throughout the villa, and the heating system.
The garden is one of the most surprising elements of the property: a large, flat and fully usable park, rare for a seafront villa in Forte dei Marmi. At the far end stands the splendid 13 x 6 metre swimming pool, clad in Bisazza mosaic, equipped with hydromassage and a heating system that allows a winter temperature of around 30 degrees, making it usable all year round.
Next to the pool there is a refined and spacious glass Jardin d’hiver, designed as a retractable pool cover and currently used as a scenic outdoor dining area throughout the year, even in winter, as it is heated by the sun’s rays during the day and can be closed and heated. It is a true outdoor living space, ideal for moments of relaxation in every season. The park also includes a pagoda at the centre of the garden connecting the villa to the pool, a bathroom, a changing room cabin and additional rooms potentially usable as a gym or for other purposes. There is also a large barbecue area strategically positioned halfway between the villa and the outdoor living area, allowing it to be conveniently used at all times.
The outdoor spaces also speak the language of materials: the pathways are paved in Rosa di Verona stone, which reveals ancient fossils when wet, while the sculptures in Bianco di Carrara, extremely difficult to source, come from a single block and are expertly almost hidden among the garden hedges.
Completing this luxury property for sale in Forte dei Marmi is a second building of approximately 50 sqm, used as a garage and storage space for garden furniture and equipment.
Located in one of the most exclusive destinations of the Mediterranean, on the Versilia coast, this prestigious seafront villa in Forte dei Marmi combines an absolutely privileged location, the refinement of unrepeatable materials and the extraordinary breadth of its interior and exterior spaces. A rare representative residence on the market, designed for an international clientele seeking not just a seaside home, but a true one-of-a-kind property in the heart of Forte dei Marmi.
