The villa is set in a small Hamlet of properties and against a backdrop of forested hills, its architect-designed restoration has transformed the old-world farmhouse into a very contemporary villa; with accommodation over three floors, linked by a steel spiral staircase, fitted with modern appliances, and furnished with elegant simplicity. Two bedrooms at the lower ground level have direct access to the garden, while one of the two on the top floor has a stylishly draped four-poster bed and its own private terrace. On the level in-between, an old stone fireplace adds character to comfort in the sitting room, and the kitchen and airy dining room each open on to a furnished terrace overlooking the hugely inviting two-tier pool. The small hamlet of Nocchi with 1 small restaurant is 1.9km away, with more in Camaiore 3.5km away, and the beaches a 10km drive.
