|
| This exceptional property welcomes you the moment you enter its lovely gated entry. Surrounded by olive groves and perfectly manicured lawns, there is a deep sense of peacefulness here. The main house contains a covered loggia for outside dining, a large country kitchen, living room, library and bar area, a private master suite, utility room and half bath. Attached to the main house by a glass-walled portico is a wing which includes a formal dining room, sitting area, three double bedrooms and two full baths. There is also a separate pool house which contains a large sitting area, double bedroom, full bath and kitchenette. | |
 Kitchen |
 Living Room |
| The kitchen is a cook's dream. It features double ovens, a 5-burner gas range, refrigerator/freezer, dishwasher, large country table, beautiful tile work surrounding the many useful work surfaces, and perhaps best of all, a raised hearth for grilling over coals. There are two living rooms in the villa. The one pictured above right is located in the main house; the other is located in the guest wing and has a fireplace. | |
 Master Bedroom |
 Master Bath |
| The Master Suite, located on the top floor of the main house in what was once a tower used to dry tobacco, is very private and quiet with beautiful views over the countryside and pool area. It has its own ensuite full bath. | |
 Library/Game Room |
 Bar Area |
| On the way up to the Master Suite, there's a second level which houses a corner library with game table and a separate bar nook. It's a quiet and elegant little spot for relaxation (or party preparation). | |
 Glass Portico from Main House to Guest Wing |
 Formal Dining Room |
| A very unique glass-covered portico connects the main house to the guest wing. Aside from the three double bedrooms (one of them is twin-bedded) and two baths (one with shower and tub, the other with walk-in shower only), this wing also contains a second living room and a formal dining room, pictured above. The dining room's double doors open out to the lawn and face west, perfect for sunset dinners and, of course, the villa is fully equipped with all the utensils and serving pieces one would need.. | |
