A Royal Rose

Once belonging to a noble Piedmontese family, this 18th century villa is teeming with history while still feeling of the moment with its modern updates. With large, light-filled rooms and distinctive paned windows, we think you’ll be royally impressed by this traditional home’s interior. Full of cheery, bright colours, the rooms feel warm and full of sunlight, and fully stocked bookcases, an eclectic collection of artwork and antique furnishings will keep the eyes wandering over every nook and cranny. The sweet country-style kitchen with doors leading out to the front garden is a delight to cook and spend time in, and plush red sofas, a cosy fireplace and a huge glass-fronted bookcase will be a dream for any book lover. Outside, a covered veranda sets a picture-perfect scene for alfresco dining in the lush garden with a variety of plants and flowers and an inviting pool with Roman steps. Perfectly kept hedges keep the space feeling private and secluded, and the grounds stretching out over several hundred square metres is part of a landscape so beautiful it has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
