Description:
When you start the tour from the street to reach the end of the property where the house is, there are spaces designed in the garden to enjoy a good reading, a pleasant conversation with the family in the middle of trees and with the moon or the stars as the only sky. The deck platform with seats made of the same material is one of these corners that invite you to enjoy this unique garden. The organically shaped pool makes you feel part of nature itself, surrounded by palm trees, fruit trees and flowers.
The arrival to the house begins through two doors carved in wood with metal details, colonial style floors, imposing thickness of the walls covered with brick in the social areas, double height with exposed wooden beams, in addition to brick vault ceilings, which move us to an environment where time is frozen. Thanks to the vision in its architecture, these elements that characterize a timeless work, a huge covered terrace with open arches without glass is also incorporated, where a lot of natural light is achieved inside, a delicious crossed ventilation can be received in the house and the surrounding nature can be enjoyed again. In other words, an older atmosphere is achieved with the advantages of a design perfected for our time.
The main room has a brick fireplace that gives this area a lot of cozy atmosphere. The dining room together with the living room can be integrated with the spacious terrace to enjoy a social area of much more size. A wine cellar with iron doors offers the possibility of collecting several bottles to complete this pleasant and luxurious atmosphere that the house has. The office located on this level is very convenient for those who like to concentrate, listen to music or work from home. Also, because there is a full bathroom next door, this room can be used as a convenient guest room.
The kitchen was designed to continue the well-achieved harmony of the environmental concept. Its furniture is made of carved wood, wooden beams in the ceiling, granite countertops that provide modern functionality and storage spaces as a large separate pantry, are some of the elements that stand out. The informal dining room allows you to enjoy a meal very close to the terrace and its fresh atmosphere. The space for the laundry and maid's room is extremely comfortable and accommodates the possible hustle of more staff or help during a private event.
A wide double height staircase and its huge window is another important decorative element. On the second floor of the house is the bedroom area and a TV room with a closet for linens. The floor is made of solid wood planks and the bathrooms are covered with pieces from the well-known factory of the Doninelli family. There are three secondary rooms, two of which share a bathroom. All the bedrooms are very good sized, especially the main one, which has two walk-in closets, an exquisite bathroom with jacuzzi and access to a large covered balcony to enjoy the view of the mountains.
To complete the different spaces offered by the house with multiple uses, at the garden level, there is a large room that can function as a huge "family room", playroom, room to practice exercises, a place for parties or even work as an apartment for a family member or special guest because it has a planned space to install a kitchen and also has a full bathroom. With its exit to the garden, it also works perfectly so that people that decide to use the private pool can take a shower at the end of a delightful sunny day.
