Condition and finishes
The property was completely renovated in 2003 and further modified in 2007 and 2016 to create a bright, spacious and contemporary home.

The rustic look has been enhanced on the outside, whilst internally the finishes are typically contemporary while still respecting the original materials. The design was taken care of by the owner, who has extensive experience as an architect and interior designer.

The villa, set atop a small hill, is surrounded by 5,200 sqm of garden, dotted with shady plants, flower beds and flowers that give the property beautiful colors in spring.

Near the entrance there is also a convenient gravel parking area (1,200 sqm) where guests can leave their cars (in addition to the underground garage used by the owners).

Within the manicured garden is the 15 × 6 m panoramic swimming pool with a terracotta and grass solarium.
On the northeastern side, the property has about 250 olive trees, with additional land of about 1.2 ha allowing the production of an excellent Tuscan extra virgin olive oil (up to 300 kg in the best seasons). Small plots of arable land of about 3,000 sqm meters complete the property.

A private lake, located just across the road, allows water to be always available to irrigate the garden and the olive trees in the drier seasons.
