History villa Il Pavone Reale
The estate is located in the hills surrounding Cairo Montenotte. The property is a mere 4 minutes drive from the city centre and a 25 minute drive from the Mediterranean. Because of the elevation it remains pleasantly cool in the Summer and there are no mosquitoes!
The estate was owned by an old Italian family who used it as their Summer retreat to escape the heat of Genova in the Summer. The original house was built in 1935 and was replaced with the current house in 1965. Later stables and a barn were added. The current owners purchased the estate in 2009. Under architectural supervision the house was fully refurbished to meet today’s needs while preserving the original design and fine interior and exterior details.
