If you love Corsica,
If you enjoy the lushness of tropical gardens,
If you enjoy superb views of the Gulfs of Saint
Cyprien, Porto Vecchio,
Pinarello Tower and the Villata padules, the island of Maddalena, the
Gulf of
Olbia and the Tavolara island
Then you may be interested in the only garden
which can be regarded as
botanical in Corsica!

Health problems come along with age, and it is
getting more and more difficult for me to maintain this vast garden,
alone. I
can’t afford to call on garden companies which, on the other
hand, may not have
the skills required for working in this so specialized garden. I
therefore
decided to put my property for sale
with the hope of finding a
buyer who will be as passionate as I am and who could count, if he
wishes, on
my help to learn more about this garden.
The
estate is located on the slopes
of Costa-Baca in Sainte Lucie de Porto Vecchio for a surface of about
8500 m2
( 1ha counting the slope.)
The
garden is a suite of seven
islets delineated by the path which winds its way up to the house. The
top
field above the house is left to Corsican flora.
The
house, built in 1998, is located
103 meters high, in the upper part of the grounds, integrated in the
vegetation. It has a live-in surface of 150 sqm , one-storey; with
ability to
enlarge it to more than 200 sqm by using the basement which houses the
garage
and a cellar. The lower part of the land is constructible.
To
see
the plans of the house and its interior design, send me an e-mail at:
jardinbotanique-corse@orange.fr
And
I
shall promptly answer you with attached files containing details on the
house.
