Top of the World

The distinguished owner of Top of the World had a very fixed idea when he was looking for somewhere to buy many years ago. He found a perfect place where he has successfully cultivated a working estate. The villa sits within the 50 acres of this stunning landscape, thick with vines and olive tress and blessed with the everchanging views of the sea.

Dedicated to the Monte Argentario region, this owner's continuing passion and personal interest has encouraged the rebirth of local farming activity to co-exist in harmony with the inevitable face of tourism, very strictly controlled in the Monte Argentario. An immaculate drive line with pine trees leads you to the house. The hexagonal shaped main building houses the sitting/dining room with access to an ultra modern kitchen, extremely well equipped complete with large 'state of the art' ovens and huge, American style fridges. Air-conditioned guest accommodation, each with bathroom or shower rooms en suite, fridges and telephones in all rooms, provides ultimate comfort.

Outside, a sophisticated 'alfresco dining room' serves as a pleasant shaded area from the heat of the day, whilst truly coming into its own at night with romantic views to a starlit sky, waves lapping on the rocks and Giglio island romantically silhouetted against the horizon. Whatever the time of day we consider this a perfect position to enjoy a refreshing glass of white wine made from the owner's personal cantina and more importantly from the vines you see in front of you.

For more energenic individuals there is a (steepish) 10 minute walk downhill to the private beach club (open from beginning of June to mid-October) or alternatively for those less inclined to physical exertion it is a 3 minute drive. Here you can swim off rocks in the sea and follow it with a fantastic lunch in the club restaurant. A truly exceptional property in a spectacular location.
