TUSCANY PROPERTIES


CASA DI SOPRA
RADDA


Sleeps 12

A fabulous, ancient property, recently restored to a very high standard to ensure the highest level of comfort. It enjoys a timeless feeling of "having been there forever" - just waiting to be enjoyed by those who will appreciate the pleasure of staying in part of Tuscany's heritage. This must be the house that any large family of various ages, or two groups of friends wanting separate but together accommodation, can truly get lost in. If taken with nearby Vercenni, thereby accommodating 21 people, one couldn't imagine a better holiday paradise for the ultimate family gathering.

The present owners of this large, private estate originally converted into their family home the much loved Vercenni many years ago. However, it was always also their dream to apply the same formula to another property on the estate, Casa di Sopra, now fabulously restored to the highest quality - yet retaining the same understated character of nearby Vercenni. The imposing stone exterior, strictly controlled by planning controls, intent on preserving Tuscany's heritage, gives little away of its secrets - yet inside huge airy light rooms with original beams come as a complete surprise. Incredibly spacious, it is the house for any large family of various ages, or two groups of friends wanting "separate but together accommodation, all who can truly lose themselves id they really try. Beautifully decorated, furnished and equipped by a well known decorator, the house is a delightful mixture of an artfully understated but definitely sophisticated look. A huge fridge / freezer in the kitchen compliments an old oil painting adorning the billiard room. Located over four multi- leveled floors, di Sopra has endless and intriguing nooks, crannies, corners to escape to: several sitting rooms with cozy fireplaces and TV for the winter months. Boredom is not an option, with its library, games and billiard room and ping pong terrace. Particularly fine bathrooms are clad in different shades of beautiful marble. Bedrooms are varied, from the fabulously romantic four poster eerie, the Tower bedroom with stunning views, to a charming pink curtained single room with tiny balcony. An unusually spacious and well equipped kitchen / breakfast room has a table for 12, and built-in barbeque, leading downstairs to a huge laundry room with all mod cons. Outside, endless terraces, extensive grounds, barbeque, panoramic views and a lovely pool, located up and away from the house, complete this idyllic spot. Di Sopra can easily be combined with Vercenni next door for larger groups, near enough for togetherness, but far enough for privacy, especially with their own pool. Highly recommended. Book early.
