Sant Andrea del Carpine, Gabbiana, Aulla, Tuscany, Italy (Sleeps 4)
|
 |
 |
A beautiful Romanesque church with its own bell tower and parish house has been sympathetically converted into this lovely home.
|
Following a three year restoration project, faithful to architectural and historical criteria, the owner, an art collector and historian, has created this delightful country home.
From its tranquil setting one can enjoy views to the Apuan Mountains whilst the various secluded corners of the gardens include a picturesque, shaded courtyard with sensational acoustics, within the ruins of a church – the setting of many a musical soiree! Sant Andrea is completely private and is a magical venue both inside and outside.
Inside, the house is enchanting with its collection of antiques from a number of countries, including Mexico, as well as a fabulous art collection. Sant Andrea is on three floors with impressive living rooms and a splendid, spacious library on the first floor leading through to the church. Charming reading areas and terraces throughout make Sant Andrea a wonderful hideaway from the outside world and a place in which to step back in time to another era.
Nearby is the small village of Gabbiano with small shop and trattoria as well as the surrounding and inspiring scenery of Lunigiana and the delightful villages of the Cinque Terre down on the Ligurian coast. Sant Andrea is a stunning venue for honeymooners or friends alike – a special and unusual find in the heart of untouched Lunigiana.
