Descrip
tion
The first property built between 1927 and 1932 in Tuoro by the famous mayor, writer, essayist, botanist, genius amateur of architecture and ecologist Edwin Cerio: a white-washed parallelepiped, complemented by a porch and a terrace only at a very short distance from the glorious Piazzetta and the fashion district of Via Camerelle. Yet all of a sudden you find yourself in completely different Capri. Vanishing as if by spell are the tourist crowds, you are immersed in silence and surrounded by gates and high walls of villas adorned with fauve bougainvillea, cypresses and maritime pines. The location is exceptional, with panoramic view over both Marina Piccola and Marina Grande, facing the Castiglione, a giant rock enveloped by greenery. Crowning the horizon is a Vesuvius - now stark, bright, and then vague and surrounded by hazy, white, stringy clouds.
Surrounding the 600 sq. m two-vevel building built into the living rock behind, with a spacious upper terrace overlooked by the sleeping area and complemented by two alfresco covered loggia lounge areas, are the gardens on various levels. The villa offers 7 bedrooms each en-suite plus two staff bedrooms. In addition there is a swimming pool. The original polychrome Vietri tile flooring has been renovated and zoned both inside the house and outside.
This villa is a part of the island's history. It is also suitable to live in even out of season: meaning long walks at the natural arch, at Villa Jovis, at the Migliera in Anacapri; contemplation, reading, the newfound pleasure of conversation, bathing at Villa Malapart.
