The Cinque Terre in Liguria represents one of the many jewels nestled in Italy's precious natural heritage. While along the Ligurian coast to the west, the landscape is characterized by olive trees and vineyards, magnificent perched villages, and long beaches, to the east, where the Cinque Terre rise, there is a varied and rugged coastline with magnificent terraced vineyards, bays, and rocky coves that exude a magical charm.

Not only the landscape, but also the types of properties are very diverse depending on the location, offering investors a wide range to purchase their dream home. But where to buy luxury properties in the Cinque Terre? Vintage enthusiasts can confidently aim for historical villas, while those who prefer contemporary style can opt for modern apartments equipped with all technological comforts. Not to forget the characteristic and colorful houses of the fishing villages.

Buying a house and investing in the Cinque Terre: the different types of properties

The type of house to buy should be chosen based on one's own needs. Some buy it to live in, others to have a second home to spend holidays, and some prefer to rent it out and have a fixed income.

The first village encountered from the west is Monterosso, divided by the Capuchin hill and characterized by a beautiful residential area where one can make a real estate investment. Continuing eastward, you reach Vernazza, another beautiful and characteristic village perched above the Vernazzola stream, which gives it a particularly romantic touch and is now covered by the main alleyway. The narrow alleyways, together with the refined and elegant palaces and the colorful houses, are among the most folkloric elements of the village.

Perched on a promontory 90 meters high is Corniglia, the only one of the five villages not to have direct access to the sea. The village is famous for its wines and is surrounded by a bucolic landscape with vineyard terraces. The penultimate village is Manarola, one of the most charming and romantic villages of the Cinque Terre, before reaching Riomaggiore, characterized by small alleys where narrow, multi-story, pastel-colored houses can be purchased, highly sought after especially in the international market.
