Why they chose this property
The house's first testimony dates back to 1717, but it's significantly older. It used to be a "casa padronale", as landowners' houses were called.
During the years several works have been made, trying to keep, when possible, the original parts, doors and windows included.
In the night the place is incredibly quiet.

What makes this property unique
You can park your car in fornt of the entrance, where the road ends. You'll enjoy full privacy, since woods separates the village from the house (see the map).
Due to its location and the thickness of the walls the house is well insulated from the hot weather, tipical of italian summer, so you'll feel no-need of AC at all.
The immediate surroundings are made of lawns and trees. You'll find many footpaths to walk into nature. If you prefer to drive, there are many lovely places around. Florence is at 1:30 hr drive, Bologna at 1 hr drive, Rimini at 1:45
