Stunning Frescoed Estate With A Panoramic View In Positano
Charming apartment with a view of the sea for sale in the heart of Amalfi Coast
Prestigious apartment for sale in Positano's oldest area
In the heart of Positano’s oldest district, nestled in the evocative beauty of the Mediterranean landscape, this charming apartment with an extraordinary panoramic view is now for sale. Located on the piano nobile of an 18th-century palazzo, the property offers 195 sqm of interior space and a 40 sqm terrace adorned with original Vietri sul Mare majolica tiles, overlooking the town’s natural amphitheater. The home welcomes guests with the warm elegance of historic materials, enriched by Baroque frescoes, wooden ceilings, and spacious rooms where sunlight flows in throughout the day. All of this is set in a quiet yet convenient location, just minutes from the vibrant heart of town.
The property lies in one of the most prestigious areas of the Amalfi Coast, a place suspended between sky and sea, where the charm of the past has remained untouched. This ancient hillside neighborhood, among the highest and most scenic in the village, is known for its authentic atmosphere made of winding alleys, centuries-old staircases, and pergolas bursting with bougainvillea. Nearby, elegant residences overlook the crystal-clear waters of the coast, while restaurants and artisan boutiques reflect the vibrant and refined daily life of the area.
The building that houses the apartment is a fine example of late Baroque architecture, erected in a dominant position once chosen by the local nobility for its privileged exposure. The apartment is located in the eastern wing of the piano nobile and preserves many original architectural features, such as restored 18th-century frescoes, wooden beams, decorated floors, and bathrooms finished with hand-painted majolica tiles and Carrara marble bathtubs. The restoration has enhanced the original structure without compromising its character, combining period details with high-quality modern comforts.
The residence unfolds on a single level and features spacious, bright interiors. Upon entering, one is welcomed into a refined living room that retains its aristocratic ambiance, with high frescoed ceilings and period furnishings. The eat-in kitchen is a true jewel of classic design, featuring a large stone sink, a six-burner stovetop, and modern appliances. A small hallway leads to the sleeping area, consisting of two double bedrooms, one of which has an en suite bathroom. Both bathrooms reflect the refined spirit of the home. The interior is completed by a dining room and a cozy secondary living area overlooking the terrace, equipped with a small outdoor kitchenette. All rooms are fitted with air conditioning.
The panoramic terrace, with its 40 sqm paved in reclaimed majolica, is without doubt the home’s most spectacular feature. Equipped with a wrought-iron table, chairs, and sun loungers, it offers a view that stretches from the historic center of Positano to the turquoise waters of the coastline.
This residence is far more than just an apartment: it is a sanctuary where art, light, and the sea merge in perfect harmony. Ideal for those seeking a prestigious home or an exclusive retreat in the heart of the Amalfi Coast, it offers the perfect balance of privacy and accessibility. In just a few minutes on foot, one can reach the center of Positano, with its restaurants, renowned beaches, and maritime connections to Capri, Amalfi, and Sorrento. Purchasing this property means living every day immersed in one of the most celebrated landscapes in the world, cradled by the sea breeze and the timeless beauty of one of Italy’s most iconic destinations.
