Surrounded by 10 hectares of pristine countryside and rolling hills, this extraordinary estate was born from the passionate restoration of an ancient rural ruin into a warm, eclectic boutique home full of immense character. The property is globally renowned for its spectacular, award-winning gardens—filled with antique roses, rosemary bushes, and verbena—masterfully designed by a world-famous, double-Gold-Medal Chelsea Flower Show landscape architect.

The interiors boast a phenomenal exhibition of style, ingeniously combining European antiques (including finely sculpted 18th-century wood paneling from a Paris hôtel particulier) with vibrant contemporary artwork and striking Asian and African collector pieces. Outdoor living centers around a sleek, secluded swimming pool tucked below the house and a magnificent pergola terrace boasting a massive travertine marble table seating 18 people for long, lazy summer banquets.

Guest quarters are individually designed and proudly named after the historic contrade of the nearby medieval city:
