The kitchen and the plant engineering are in perfect condition, as well as the whole property. Outdoor space A 11.000 sqm park encompasses the dwelling up to the gracious lakelet. The L-shaped design creates, in the proximity of the entry, a spacious courtyard overlooked by the “barn” and the farmhouse with the large portico.
