The house, comfortable and bright, preserves all the original traditional features such as wooden beams and cotto tiles on ceilings, original old fireplaces, typical stone arches on the living area and arched ceilings on the ground floor. The refined and elegant furnishing and the great care for every detail give to the interiors warmth and comfort. The views from each window invite the eye to stroll across the splendid countryside surrounding the building.
