The road to the “Paradiso” is not a common one. It is a white track, embraced by the woods, laid down by the distant passage of pilgrims, who, leaving behind them the towers of Siena, would go forth into the savage Maremman landscape, to reach Rome and the centre of their hearts. The House: On the upper floor, which one approaches by means of a “parata”, a grand entrance, there is a study/living room, four bedrooms: one double room with bathroom and bath tub, one twin room with a big terrace, bathroom and shower, two twin rooms and a separate bathroom with shower. The ground floor, on the garden level, consists of an ample sitting room with fireplace, a dining room, a delightful and fully equipped kitchen with storage room and an opening on the courtyard, with a loggia designed to have lunch or dinner “al fresco”, and a guest bathroom. The two dependences, obtained from the house’s original annexes, perfectly reflect the style and comfort of the main building.
Nature and surroundings
All of the area surrounding the house has been landscaped with great attention to detail, using plants native to the Mediterranean region, such that one will find flowering plants in all seasons. Buds, flowers, colorful leaves all contribute to outline and at the same time divide the different sections of the forest region, with pines and cork-oak to the west and holm-oak and white oak to the east. Next to the “suite” of the external wood-fired oven there is a pleasant circle of boxwood and viburnum around a grassy field, underneath large holm-oaks which give abundant shade for a relaxing breezy summer; much secluded and peaceful. In front of the other building, “Il Capanno” (“the Barn”) is a large old paved terrace ideal for sitting out at night and for playing table tennis, covered by the shade of a very old holm-oak (hundreds of years old !). From here one can admire the profusion of beautiful roses, which are splendid of themselves whilst at the same time leaving an unobstructed
