Villa Miracapri on the Sorrento Peninsula

Villa Miracapri in Sorrento

Villa Miracapri is a semi-detached Sorrento villa is situated in a very special location: charming country environment, yet short driving distance to the sea. In an elevated position at 350m. above the water, is surrounded by a thick olive trees vegetation and parkland. It is blessed by the glorious Gulf of Naples vistas: the Isle of Capri immediately in front, then the islands of Ischia and Procida, followed by the northern tip of the Gulf of Naples stretching all the way to Mount Vesuvius.

A small road leads to the house at walking distance from the tiny but compact village of Termini, with all shops facilities: a pub, an excellent restaurant, ceramic shop and limoncello workshop. A large swimming pool with breathtaking views, part of a residential club, is located at walking distance above the house.

The whole area is heaven for walkers and food lovers: it is crossed by a network of ancient pedestrian tracks, linking every hamlet of the Sorrento Peninsula to old farmhouses, little coves and bays, local restaurants and trattorias. Some of these tracks lead to places of archaeological interest, remains of Roman villas and mythical sites of Greek temples.

Miracapri is a stone-built, self-contained villa. Sunny and spacious, solidly built, features exposed timber beams, beautiful cotto tiling and is furnished with a mix of country and antique furniture. The open plan living room and dining room feature a dining table for twelve, and a large fireplace for those cool winter nights. The front garden, cobblestoned with a grassy area, is equipped with a built-in stone barbecue, outdoor table and chairs, sunbeds and a shower. Retractable awnings and olive and fruit trees provide shade all around the house. A side terrace runs along the two main bedrooms.

The owners, who live nearby, are extremely hospitable and love catering: when they have an outdoor dinner or pizza-making party, you will be invited, too. Don’t miss out!
