Nestled in a prime panoramic location just four minutes from the medieval town of Preggio, this charming Leopoldine-style villa offers expansive views over the Niccone Valley. Enjoy the perfect sunset views directly from the front terrace.
The villa has been completely rebuilt on the foundations of an older structure, ensuring solid construction without the common moisture issues found in many older properties. The asphalted driveway stretches 50 metres to an electric gate, ensuring both privacy and convenience.
High ceilings, an abundance of natural light, archways, exposed wooden beams, and hand-fired terracotta tiles combine to create a seamless blend of historical character and contemporary living standards.
The villa features a spacious panoramic terrace with a heated pool. The 2,000m² enclosed garden is beautifully landscaped, offering flat areas ideal for outdoor activities. Each year, wild orchids bloom, providing a rare and spectacular natural display. The garden also boasts around 36 olive trees, fruit trees, lavender, flowering shrubs, and a vegetable patch, complemented by a practical wooden shed – the perfect balance of rural charm and modern comfort. A new extension of around 30m² has recently been added to the garden area.
