Our opinion
A pleasantly unusual property in the immediate vicinity of a town of 50,000 inhabitants and close to communication routes. A restoration blending quality with good taste in the purest of Italian styles.
This Tuscany villa is truly one of a kind in the region, a different way of living and entertaining.
