Completely and finely renovated, it consists of a double bedroom, a bathroom, a loft with a star-shaped vaulted view made of the local raw tuff that houses two other beds, which is accessed by an extroverted spiral staircase designed by the imaginative homeowner, who also created the upholstery, canvases and light fixtures in the house. There is also a kitchenette, where you can find what you need to enjoy a traditional local aperitif with barley frise, yellow pendula tomatoes, local extra virgin olive oil and fragrant oregano. The ancient "focalire" has also been recovered, where you can prepare tasty grilled meats. Guest access The garden in front of the estate has recently been replanted according to the design of a well-known local landscape architect who has expertly harmonized the pre-existing centuries-old olive trees, the majestic and imposing pines and the native fruit trees native fruit trees (among which the famous apricot trees with singular fruits stand out) with typically Mediterranean plants such as rosemary, bay leaf and many others. On the back, however, nothing has been changed: walnuts, mandarins, mulberries and prickly pears stand out, whose fruits, if ripe, can be enjoyed by picking them personally. The green, healthy air of the renowned "Cappuccini" area and tranquility are the masters. At dusk, under the elegant three-lobed porch, you can read a good book, or, if you are more adventurous, go hunting for asparagus in the small, still virgin pine forest, attached to the villa, which is accessed through a still uncultivated path. Conversely, your little ones will be able to run around under the "chianche" veranda and enjoy the games of the smallest homeowners, a swing, a slide and a small pool. If you are a family and are looking for tranquility... this is the ideal place: we are waiting for you!!!! Registration Details IT075030C200040972
