Duino Villa

The Property — Duino Villa is a traditional stone-built coastal residence perched directly above the Adriatic shoreline, surrounded by mature olive groves and Mediterranean gardens. The property features a private stone terrace with uninterrupted sea views, direct rocky coastline access, and authentic architectural details including exposed stonework, wooden shutters, and terracotta roofing. Inside, the villa balances coastal character with curated interiors — sage-green accent walls, mid-century modern furnishings, bright white bedrooms with garden access, and an open-plan living space that flows onto the outdoor dining terrace.

The Brief — The agency needed marketing material that communicated both the raw coastal beauty of the location and the livable elegance of the interiors. The property had been on the market for four months with limited interest because existing photos failed to capture the relationship between the house and the sea. The brief called for morning golden-hour photography, cinematic drone footage, interior lifestyle photography, and a hero twilight shot of the illuminated terrace against the darkening Adriatic.

What We Delivered — A photography package of 25 premium edited photos, four aerial drone shots revealing the villa's position on the coastline, a 2:30 cinematic property film, and a 45-second social cut for Instagram and property portals.

The Results — The agency relaunched the listing across Immobiliare.it, Gate-Away, and their brokerage website. Within the first two weeks, the campaign generated 4 formal viewing requests from qualified international buyers — up from 1 in the previous 4 months — plus 2 second viewings scheduled within 10 days. The drone video reached 12,400 impressions on the agency's Instagram, and both second viewers specifically mentioned the aerial footage as the reason they shortlisted the property.

"The drone shots changed everything. Buyers finally understood what 'coastal' actually meant for this property. We had more enquiries in two weeks than the previous four months combined." — Listing Agent
