STATE AND FINISHES
The main building was once a country house, built in the 19th century, recently restored to obtain a luxurious resort with Spa and pool. The property, in excellent conditions, has terracotta floors, roofs sustained by wooden beams, brick-built arches and stone fireplaces.

The resort includes a terrace, an outdoor swimming pool, a solarium, a well-maintained garden (roughly 10,000 sqm), a picnic area and a parking area for guests.
The vast terrain surrounding the property is split among vineyards (25 hectares – 67 acres), olive grove (11 hectares – 27 acres), agricultural land (33 hectares – 82 acres) and woodland (46 hectares – 114 acres, of which 5 ha serving as a private white truffle ground).
Furthermore, rights for replanting 1.8 ha of vineyard have been acquired.
