Classic country house in the little village of Borgo a Giovi, on the road between Arezzo and Casentino.
The house dates back to the renaissance period. The villa has been recently renovated, and transformed into a fascinating holiday home. As soon as you cross the threshold you can feel the special atmosphere typical of old aristocratic country houses. The renovation has maintained all the ancient features, bringing out the structural and decorative elements.
The rooms are quite eccentric, some of the bedrooms are frescoed, and a large living-room, which was used for house parties still has its period furniture, as have many other bedrooms and the small games and reading rooms. In the kitchen a large stone table and fireplace add to the rural atmosphere of times gone by.
The external area behind the house overlooks the countryside and is reached along a little road marked by two rows of cypress trees, running through the corn fields and vineyards . Through a large gate dominated by two terracotta lions is an internal courtyard with a stone table,in the shade of two large Mediterranean pine trees, here you will also find the 8x5 Mts swimming-pool (partly above ground).
Just a short walk takes you to the little piazza in the village, where there is an excellent restaurant, and then on to the banks of the river Arno.
