Just one glance at the façade of this quintessentially Italian villa will take your breath away. It's based in Via Capitello, a hamlet based just a short drive from the romantic city of Verona, where you can visit authentic Italian restaurants and walk along the winding Adige River. There are also plenty of rolling green hills and lush woodlands surrounding you, where you can hike in total peace.
This countryside villa is made up of two parts – one for guests and one for the hosts and grounds people – and features a captivating ivy-covered tower that was built all the way back in the 19th century. Inside is beautiful and characterful, with handmade terracotta and oak parquet flooring, elegant glass chandeliers, majolica ceramics and exposed wooden beams. All this, along with the traditional decor, means the home truly looks like one from a fairytale. You can gather for special meals in the opulent dining area, or enjoy quality time with the family relaxing in one of the many lounge areas.
The outside of the home is just as impressive. Take a summer stroll around the manicured gardens and marvel at the grandeur surrounding you. You'll find a large outdoor private pool where you can float on a lilo with a cocktail, as well as many outdoor dining areas where you can sip on Italian Prosecco while you wait for the sunset.
