Description

VILLA IL CASTELLETTO
Citr Code: 045010LTN0283

Sleeps 12
Bedrooms 6, Bathrooms 6
Massa, Versilia – Tuscany, Italy

 

Elegant charming 1500 Century villa, with pool and Spa on the border between Liguria and Tuscany at a few mins from the beaches and close to the Cinque Terre.
Il Castelletto is set on a hill at the foot of the Apuane Alps amongst olive groves, chestnut, and oak forests. Everywhere you look you will be captivated by the splendid views that take in the entire valley below, leading to the shores of the nearby Mediterranian sea and continuing to the Gulf of Porto Venere.

Originally Il Castelletto was a defensive stone tower built around 1400 to defend the nearby medieval Malaspina castle. Today it has been transformed into a beautiful and elegant holiday villa, restructured by the owner with great care and maximum attention to detail.

A harmony of colors pervades the interiors with walls plastered in traditional Tuscan pinks and yellows and the brilliant green and white of the local Carrara marble.
Many walls have been left bare to expose the ancient rough-hewn stonework which combines with traditional terracotta floors, chestnut beam ceilings, and a considered selection of old prints and antiques to create a warm and luxurious atmosphere.

Villa Il Castelletto is on four floors:

Each floor is reachable either by an internal staircase or by an internal panoramic lift. The villa is entered from a large external patio which is furnished with outdoor dining facilities and perfect for taking in the stunning panoramas.

On the ground floor entering from this patio, you will find a new and functional brilliantly equipped kitchen adjacent to the dining room. Fine Persian carpets and gold leaf mirrors characterize this room which is a cozy place on winter days with the fire alight.

These bedrooms have en suite bathrooms with showers. Also on this level is a splendid sauna room and the Jacuzzi with hot water.

The main entrance on the first floor leads to an elegant living room with a fireplace in white Carrara marble. The comfortable sofas and armchairs are in complete harmony with the colored walls which are a soft green. In the living room, you can also find a Satellite television and large windows that take in the magnificent and extensive views.

On the same floor, there is a charming double bedroom with an en suite bathroom with a shower. A wooden staircase or the lift leads to the second floor where there are two romantic double bedrooms.
