The meticulous restoration has honored the original architectural layout and classic structural elements while introducing a bold and personal aesthetic: vivid furnishings crafted from rich materials, ornate rounded forms, exposed stone walls, and unconventional accessories and fabrics that together create an interior of rare character and warmth. Ideally situated just minutes from the renowned spa town of Rapolano Terme, the property is perfectly suited for large groups of friends or families seeking both togetherness and independence.
