Its strategic position inside the borgo apart from being very safe for you and your family and friends, you become part of a small community made up of a few families where above all children can learn about Italian hospitality and Tuscan conviviality. The Main House After having parked in the paved courtyard in front of the property, we go through the main glazed door to enter the day area of the main house characterised by an enormous double-height open space, culminating in a beamed ceiling supported by a majestic central truss. The careful attention to detail, the choice of valuable materials such as the palladian floor made of travertine and onyx which are enhanced by the natural light which brightens up and warms the atmosphere of the dining and reading area and the sitting room. To make the atmosphere more convivial there is a large minimal fireplace incorporated into the wall library of the room where there is a starcaise leading to the floor downstairs, where there is an all-purpose space, a very big study with many windows and loundry and a toilet. In addition to the natural light, the continuity with external spaces is an important feature of the restoration project that took place in 2008. From the dining area there is a French window leading out to the terrace, where you can eat out by candlelight under the Tuscan starry sky. Via a corridor we pass from the living area to the sleeping area, where we are surrounded by a different atmosphere with wood floorings, except for the master bedroom where the original cotto tiles have been preserved, and the ceiling features white painted wood beams. This area develops on several levels: on the first level, a step higher than the living room, you can find a bedroom, the main bathroom made precious by Bisazza mosaics, and a storage. Walking up two steps you can find the master bedroom and another bathroom. The house features an underfloor heating for the living area and radiators in the bedrooms and bathrooms working with gpl system. In addition to the heating system and the fireplace, a pellet stove has been placed in the living room, to be used if necessary. The ventilation and insulation of the roof, together with antihumidity plaster make all the rooms healthy, transpiring and perfect for a numerous family. The Apartments In addition to the main house there are 3 more apartments, all enjoying indipendent entrance from the courtyard: 2 of them are placed on the ground floor and they both feature an open-plan kitchen/living room, a double bedroom and a bathroom with shower. The third apartment is placed on the first floor and, compared to the other apartments, it enjoys an additional double bedroom.
