Each of these apartments is a comfortable
home comprising 4 ample rooms and accessories. One
apartment is on the ground floor the other on the
first. There are views from both apartments of the
Amalfi bay and coastal areas.
The entire villa is also available for purchase at
a reduced price, allowing for either conversion to
one property or the opportunity to rent out one or
both apartments during the lucrative vacation season,
or perhaps as a long term letting.
At these apartments you will be immersed in true
countryside yet be near the sea, the beautiful village
of Scala and of course the enchanting towns and villages
along the Amalfi Coast. Ravello and Amalfi are each
only 3Km away.
The property does not have a drive way and is accessible
via a series of stone steps,
160 in total, making this a very exclusive and secluded
spot indeed! These steps need not present a problem
to everyone and many purchasers have found imaginative
ways to overcome any potential difficulties.
If you are a nature lover who likes to trek and walk
in hills, this is a perfect place to be, all year
round. Especially if you are escaping the frenetic
pace of city and urban life.
Scala is served by public transport and is only 10
minutes drive by car from Amalfi where there are boats,
ferries and hydrofoils which hop to and from Naples,
Positano, Capri and other towns and islands along
the coast.
Local Delights:
The view, the sea, lemon trees, olive oil, wine and
the beauty and history of Scala-Amalfi. There are
many wonderful little boutiques in Amalfi, which are
stocked with local produce found only in this region,
such as Amalfi’s famous hand made paper, colourful
ceramics and the after-dinner liqueur made from lemons,
known as Limoncello
.
A
note on properties with Steps: Some of the
most beautiful properties along the Amalfi Coast are
only accessible via steps from a main road. In some
manner, this adds to the sense of idyll and seclusion
that these properties possess. However, in some cases
a stair lift can be fitted, depending on local guidelines
which regulate what can and what cannot be constructed
in this historical area of natural beauty.
Moreover, the fact of steps is greatly
reflected in the price of a property, reducing its
real market value by up to 65%. Therefore, you may
wish to consider that for such a saving the cost of
a stair lift or hired labour to help with transporting
items is negligible, even over periods of years and
decades. It should also be remembered that the price
of your property will increase over the years and
this will tend to offset any cost spent on assistance
such as carriers, if at all necessary.
The case of steps is peculiar, since for many people
steps would not present a serious deterrent, given
the above solutions. Which is not to mention those
who recognise the hidden benefit of keeping seriously
fit, eliminating the need to spend hours in an unnatural
setting such as an airless and sunless gym. However,
for Italians, the situation is somewhat different:
if it is not possible to park your car right next
to your bed, then this is a great problem. This kind
of impediment was very well caricatured by Bruno Bozzetto,
the famous Italian animator, in his quaint and humorous
depiction of how Italians perform sport: huddled around
a TV watching football. To see this and several other
brilliant caricatures of Italians in comparison to
the other Europeans visit Bozzetto's
site for this and other delights.
