The property, which dates back to the 1700’s, has been carefully and tastefully restored by its actual owners, who undertook the restoration in order to maintain the authenticity of the original materials and features wherever possible. Materials such as oak, cypress wood, cotto tiles and local stone were carefully removed and sent to various carpenters and stonemasons to be restored and replaced. The result is a property that remains true to its origins and has the feeling of authenticity.
The house develops on approx’170 sqm, and comprises of an open plan lounge/dining area, separate large kitchen, bathroom and laundry room on the ground floor. From the living room the suspended stone staircase leads to the first floor, hosting two double bedrooms and two bathrooms.

The traditional Tuscan style blends harmoniously with modern comforts such as air-con, modern bathrooms and a fitted kitchen. Local planning regulations allow for this property to be increased in size.
