What You Need to Know About Villas (And What It’s Like Living in One)

by Kristen White Blogger
If you are looking for one-of-a-kind real estate in California, one type of property that we highly recommend is the villa.
 
The term “villa” has taken on many different meanings, but historically, villas have been known to be large and elaborate living spaces where Roman nobles could live in and relax, away from the rest of society. A Villa can be mistaken for “village”, and while living in a villa could feel like having a whole village to yourself, there are many key differences, mainly due to villas being one large property that a person owns, rather than just a house on the property.
 
Today, villas are often what people describe as homes that are part of vacation rental properties or retirement communities, but there are still a number of villas you can purchase for sale and live in indefinitely, all in different styles. No matter if you want a traditional Victorian villa, the always sought-after Italian villa, or a villa that is more modern and sleek-looking, there are many villas among the Corona Del Mar homes for sale. If you ask us, a traditional villa can make you feel as if you have traveled to another country, or even through time.
 
The main feature in a villa is a large residential home, that can either be one or two stories tall. But even if you come across a home in a villa that is only one story, it sure appears to look very immense and gives off impressions of grandeur, with a heightened ceiling and everything made on an epic scale. 
 
Many of the villas among the Newport Coast homes for sale come with many other amenities, too. Many villas today, especially modern ones, are built with a luxurious in-ground pool that is right outside the home. Feel free to enjoy the pool anytime you want once you own it. These tend to blend in right in with the home, making it look more resort-like than residential.
 
Attached or unattached, the villa has one or more smaller buildings adjacent to the main residence building. A smaller building next to the main home could be a clubhouse, which can be a place to host parties, set up a bar, or conduct other private events. Smaller buildings might also be guest houses. If you often have friends or family over to live with you, guest houses are places in which they can live, with their own bedrooms, bathrooms, and kitchen area. You can even consider designating this house for possible butlers, maids, or housekeepers to live if you want or need assistance at any time of the day. 
 
Oftentimes these buildings and amenities are accessible via a driveway that is shaped like a cul-de-sac. Buy Corona Del Mar homes for sale and see what kinds of villas interest you.
 
And of course, villas aren’t villas without a vast, spacious property. Villas are constructed so that all you can see around you is nature, without any signs of other homes or city life. People who can afford villas often enjoy having privacy, without any occurrences of neighbors or cars driving by. Consider Newport Coast homes for sale as a means to escape everyday life and have a large piece of land to call your own.
 
Villas are considered to be lavish dream properties where living large is combined with additional housing and a vast plot of land surrounded by nature. If you can afford a villa, we definitely recommend taking a look at any that are currently on the market. People who buy villas definitely do not regret their decisions, and the only way they do is due to unexpected financial issues.
