Salvia

Sitting perfectly ontop of a sloping Tuscan hillside is villa Salvia, a beautiful, rustic country house, drenched in uninterrupted sunlight. Salvia is split up into a smaller, beautively restored Hay Barn, an ancient Tower, and a smaller guest house.

The Hay Barn is equipped with a large kitchen with all modern amenities including 2 fridges, 2 freezers, a wine celler, 2 ovens, and an 8 burner range. The most discerning chef will be in heaven while whipping up Tuscan classics in this beautiful kitchen with immediate access to the outside. The dining area outside is perfect for those lengthy dinners with the option of lighting up the cozy fireplace on cooler nights. There is also access to the guest house, the laundry room and a guest bathroom, all off of the patio. On the first floor of the Barn are the two double bedrooms (not covertible into a twin), both with ensuite bathrooms and a large shower

The Old Tower is the largest of the three buildings, sleeping 10. On the ground floor you will find two living rooms, one with large windows with beautiful views and direct access to outside, and the other with the flat screen TV and access to a covered outdoor seating area.

On the first floor there is a cozy sitting area with fireplace off of a small kitchenette with fridge.
