Situated in the charming village of Galice, this poised villa offers a tranquil retreat with stunning views across the olive grove-studded landscape. Situated 150m from the sparkling Tyrrhenian Sea, this home offers a serene setting amongst the lemon trees. Through the doors of this renovated farmhouse, you’ll find an airy and dynamic living space where the furnishings are contemporary, yet cosy. Maintaining elements of the house’s original architecture, you’ll see exposed stonework and authentic wood furnishings. The open living space is elegantly decorated, inviting a tranquil atmosphere that's a pleasure to spend time in – the orange Le Corbusier-style sofa is the perfect spot to enjoy your summer read. The compact kitchen is thoughtfully designed for preparing light meals, whilst the balcony dining table couldn’t be a more idyllic place to enjoy an intimate dinner. With the warm Mediterranean climate, it's no surprise the home promotes outdoor living, with a charming garden, shaded loungers and a stunning sun-dappled patio that’s perfect for alfresco aperitivos through long balmy evenings. Step away from your peaceful surroundings and we recommend you spend the day at the Mongiove Caves, just 6km away. Discover the pristine waters, pebbled beaches and Via Grotto that line this stunning stretch of coastline – on a clear day you can catch views of the Aeolian Islands.
