The interior was fully renovated in 2008. Electric and plumbing certified to latest EU specifications, new double glass windows, heated downstairs by a top of the range Palazzetti hot air fireplace.
The roof still has its original woodwork and tiles intact, however, needs re-insulating with "guaina" (sheath). The owners are in the process of fixing the inner and outer stucco plaster following some water damage.
The garden is lovely with its wide range of different fruit trees, rosebushes and lavander which the owner uses to make her own lavander oil. The pergola overlooks the famous "Dead man" mountain. This property is perfect for those wanting to escape the hustle and bustle and sit down, enjoy a glass of wine while watching sun set on the Tuscan hills.
