MAIN VILLA  - Lower Level 

A very well equipped and large kitchen to please both the Italian and American family. The owner has carefully redone the kitchen so it maintains its rustic charm including a fireplace, yet up to date. 3 dishwashers, two large refrigerator/freezer, a grill, ice cream maker, wine cooler and all the gadgets you can imagine. There is a table and chairs in the kitchen for snacks. A few steps down from the kitchen is the laundry area with washers and dryers  (operated only by house maids).

A large formal dining-room with chandelier, next to the restored old olive press. 

A very large twin living-room with spectacular views. Remove controlled bay window  which can be opened to enjoy the breezes from the hills. Door which opens to an extremely large terrace, done-up in oversized wicker chairs and overstuffed yellow striped cushions. Off of this area is a big dining gazebo and BBQ grill. This area is a favorite for big dinner parties or to retreat to in the evenings after dinner. Again, a wonderful breeze in the evenings.

The indoor swimming pool  opens by remote control on one side via an entire glass wall, on to a lawned area with teak lounges for sunning and relaxing or just to take in the views. By the swimming pool is a dining table where lunche  or snack can also be served. Behind this table are plants, which give it an outdoor feeling. Seating area with off white cushions around  the pool deck and fabulous lighting at night. Next to the pool you will find the sauna, shower, toilet and changing room.
