VILLA S.MARTINO is a very large, charming
old building completely renovated.
Just new on the market, first year rental.
The owner, a nice young active lady, had a particular
eye and taste in restoring this old building maintaining
and even increasing its great old country charm.
The house dates back to 1751. On the facade you
can see a stone plaque with this date and an inscription
in Latin: they say that, in the old days, it took
10 years to build the house.
This building and the adjoining ?700 historical
villa, have been in the family of the present
owner since the beginning of 1900.
She loves the place a lot and you can feel it
everywhere, in every corner, in every detail,
in the extremely tasteful decoration.
Outside the house maintains the typical Tuscan
colours and structure and it could not have been
differently as it is surrounded by typical country
side. Olive groves and vineyards are in front
and around you.
In the property the owner produces very good olive
oil and wine, on sale on the place. Behind the
big doors on the front, in an old cellar, the
owner?s wine is sleeping and aging. Inside the
owner was extremely able in combining together
nice antiques with some modern furnishing maintaining
old terracotta floor and ceiling tiles, and old
wood beans everywhere. There are two apartments,
for two rentals, but the house is very suitable
for one rental. The two apartments are fully independent,
and there is no connection inside. But it is not
a problem. The access to the ground floor apartment
is through a large front door. To the first floor
apartment there is an outside stair. On top of
the stair you find an old traditional wood hoven
where to bake pizza
Sleeps: 12 people.
