About the home
The handsome, four square house crowning a hill, with commanding views in all directions, was originally built in the early nineteenth century by a member of the Italian nobility. It was bought by the present owners at the turn of this century and they have restored it in typical Italian casa colonica style, with furniture of the appropriate style and antiquity.
