Home description
The house is built in stone with hand-made terracotta tiling throughout. The ceilings are also made of terracotta with large chestnut beams. All the rooms have separate exits onto the terraces and the garden surrounding the house and the use of glass is maximised to take full advantage of the truly superb views.
The property is on a 1.5 hectare plot, planted with vines, olives and fruit trees. The lawn area in front of the house is fully fenced in, making it ideal for children and is built on a single story so there are no stairs to worry about.
The house is also perfect for the winter months as we have installed under-floor heating and thermostats throughout (an extra cost for heating is levied when the system is in operation) and the lake views can be even more impressive in winter.
