Along the access road, an olive grove adds a touch of rurality and still produces high-quality olive oil. As regards utilities, the villa is equipped with electricity and a heating system, while the water supply, connected to the municipal network, is guaranteed by a strong pressure and a primary source coming from the hill, integrated by an electric pump in the wash house . Ultimately, the Villa represents not only a residence of great prestige and history, but also an enchanting refuge that embodies the beauty and authenticity of historic Italy. REF.7098
