The House in a Nutshell...
Two Bedrooms
Two large bedrooms, each air conditioned, each with their own bathroom and each nicely furnished with lots of closet space.
King Beds
Each bedroom has brand new king beds and brand new mattresses (what the Italians call "matrimonial" mattresses) which are larger than an American queen size, but a little smaller than an American king size.
3 Bathrooms
Additional bathroom off of the kitchen (for a total of 3 full bathrooms)
Remodeled Kitchen
Large, completely remodeled kitchen with new cabinetry, fireplace, new appliances and granite counters.
Outdoor Patio
Peaceful, outdoor patio with tables, chairs, umbrella, gas barbecue and brand new 2-person oval jacuzzi.
Washing Machine
Washing machine in laundry room off kitchen. Laundry is dried in the sun-filled yard or on drying racks in the house.
Large flat-screen HD cable TV
Small, but comfortable living room with 3 new electric leather recliners.
This living room comfortably seats 3-4 people for watching television or movies. The Television has Netflix, Amazon Prime and, of course, YouTube.
Also in the living room are over a hundred DVD movies for you to choose from.
Wireless Internet
Wireless Internet throughout the house
New Kitchen Items

Air Conditioner

The House, Amenities & More
The front door of the house
The tiny mini "park" 30 feet from the front door of the house. A quaint little spot to read, enjoy your morning coffee, or use your laptop. Very rarely used by anyone else in the village.

The fireplace in the kitchen (great for grilling inside)
Bathroom #1.
All fixtures are new and there is plenty of cabinet space.
Picture of the bathroom right off the kitchen. Brand new, fully tiled and all new fixtures. A nice, new shower stall is behind the door and next to the toilet.
Laundry room with washer. Dryer has been removed since they do not work well and use high amounts of electricity. Clothes are easily dried in our sunny back yard or in the house on drying racks.
Pictured above are two views of bedroom #1. It has a brand new bed and mattress, a large armoire opposite the bed and is air conditioned. The bedroom is also right next to its own bathroom. The picture below is the view from the window-door in this bedroom. Image waking up in the morning and opening your window-door to this amazing view.
Bedroom #2 - About 25% larger than bedroom #1. Very comfortable and cozy, with a large desk. Brand new desktop computer, monitor and printer, comfortable reading chair and beautiful triple size armoire opposite the bed (not shown in the picture). In addition to these 2 bedrooms, there are 2 additional single mattresses so that up to 6 people can sleep comfortably in the house.
The small living room of the house. This room has a beautiful ceiling to floor open-able window-door behind the blue curtain. Not the biggest room for entertaining perhaps, but cozy and plenty adequate for 3-4 people to watch tv, movies, or just read after a long day of sight seeing, etc. The TV in the picture has just been replaced with a new large flat screen "smart" HD television. To the left of the TV is a fold-down desk perfect for working on the computer (one of which is already there, so you don't have to bring your own to Italy if you don't want to).
Two views of the outdoor patio. Behind this patio is the rarely used, impeccably kept village park (see picture below).
The garage of the home. It is 30 feet from the front door of the house. It has water and electricity and if you make an immediate left when you walk into the garage, you enter another little room used for storing firewood for the kitchen fireplace. You'll also find two bicycles for your use in the garage.
The beautiful village park. Entrance to this park is through a large wrought iron gate about 100 feet from the front of the house. It is immaculately clean and has lots of benches situated throughout. Incredibly, it is not often used by the village residents (mostly because they all have their own beautiful back yards).
New 2-person, oval hot-tub running and ready to soak your muscles after a day of sightseeing.
