Villa Alessandro

This is a classic 1970s villa, typical of the residential building style in the Versilia area during that period: sober lines, compact volumes, pitched roof with tiles, light-colored plaster (now somewhat marked by time), and wooden windows with green shutters—very common at the time.

The house develops over two above-ground levels for a total walkable surface of approximately 140 m². It is currently divided into two independent residential units, but with a very realistic possibility of being reunited into a single-family home through relatively simple interventions (opening an internal staircase and merging some spaces).

Ground floor (≈ 80 m²):

It opens onto a generously sized living room with an adjacent dining area. This is followed by a habitable kitchen with direct access to the side garden. The floor is completed by two double bedrooms of generous size for the era and a main bathroom. The floors are tiled in gres (porcelain stoneware), and the ceilings have medium height (approximately 2.70–2.90 m).

First floor (≈ 60 m²):

Independent thanks to an external staircase (a very common solution in 1970s Versilia houses), with an access landing. Here we find a second open-plan living-kitchen area, a bright double bedroom, and a bathroom. From the landing or some windows, there is a pleasant view over the surrounding rooftops and, on clear days, the Apuan Alps in the distance.

Outdoor areas

The property is completed by a private, flat garden of about 500 m², featuring lawn, some Mediterranean plants (olive trees, oleanders, pittosporums), and enough space to create a sunbathing area, a small gazebo, or—with the necessary permits—a small swimming pool. The garden surrounds the house and ensures good privacy thanks to the typical perimeter hedges of the area.

The villa is located in a very convenient position in Vittoria Apuana, just 800 meters from the sea (about 10 minutes on foot or 2–3 minutes by bicycle/car), on a quiet residential street, far from the summer traffic of the center but close to services, cycle paths, and the famous pine forests.

While still clearly bearing the hallmark of the 1970s (square lines, linear balconies, wrought-iron or aluminum railings), the house offers excellent potential for a complete renovation: with a targeted intervention, it can be transformed into a modern, bright single-family villa—perhaps by adding large glass doors toward the garden, renovating the bathrooms and kitchen, improving thermal insulation, and installing a more efficient heating system.

The attached images represent a hypothetical restyling of the villa, specifically designed to show clients how this solid 1970s house could be reborn after a careful renovation: more open and contemporary spaces, greater natural light, strong connection with the garden, modern finishes while still respecting the original character of the building.

In summary: a solid period family home with double entrance and current dual independence, but with an easily reunifiable soul and a generous garden, in one of the most sought-after and peaceful areas of Forte dei Marmi, just steps from the sea..
