PODERE CORBEZZOLO
PORTO SANTO STEFANO

Sleeps 6
Set high on a hillside, there can be few smaller houses that offer such a degree of privacy, a glorious view of sky, blue sea and the charming town of Porto Santo Stefano and its ancient Spanish fortress below - while being surrounded by a backdrop of hills and the "macchia mediterranea", wild untamed and completely natural vegetation, wonderful for walking or exploring.

Originally an 18th century agricultural worker's home, it is now renovated and painted in a classic Argentario dark ochre, covered with an evergreen shrub which in May is covered with white scented flowers. This delightful conversion has been finished to a high standard by its meticulous owner, and is decorated and furnished with a mixture of period and contemporary furnishings and materials. The cozy living room with an open fireplace and large French doors to the terrace, leads up some steps to the dining area and a very well equipped small kitchen. A very large master bedroom / study / library with bookshelves and large desk serves as a peaceful retreat, ideal for a writer, or executive who has to "keep in touch" with the outside world. Upstairs, one of the bedrooms with a brass bed has beautiful views over the pool and the panorama below. It separate upstairs and downstairs living makes Corbezzolo ideal for two couples vacationing together wanting privacy. Set on 10 acres of grounds, green lawns surround the house, with a pretty gazebo and barbeque for outside al fresco dining. Set well away from the house, with sunbeds and fridge for drinks is the pool area, with its simply fabulous view and surrounded by fashionable decking. The quiet and feeling of nature from the unspoiled landscape of the hills surrounding Corbezzolo is its most truly memorable feature, yet enhance by the fact that the owner walks to the nearby town every day for fresh bread. The delightful maid is a good local cook, her fisherman husband supplying fresh fish for succulent meals for guests. Highly recommended.
