Podere San Niccola
is located on top of a hill it boasts a spectacular
open, panoramic view overlooking well-kept lawns, a beautiful olive grove
and the sea. If weather is fine it is possible to see the islands
of Elba, Capraia and sometimes even Corsica in the distance. The surrounding
area is classic Tuscan country with olive trees, cypress, and pines.
Punta Ala is well-known for its trendy harbour, its sandy beaches
and its very clean turquoise sea. Elegant resorts, golf, polo games,
regattas, beach-going, port facilities, water activities of all kinds and
night-life make this somewhat a special sea-side resort with a rather unique
natural environment. But there are no-fee public beaches in between the
private beaches as well.
In Punta Ala you will find all kind of services, supermarkets, nice
shops and many excellent restaurants offering fresh seafood. The
nearest restaurant is 2 km from the house.
The property is a perfect compromise for guests who are looking for a peaceful
countryside environment with easy access to the seaside. Here you can enjoy
beach life and blue water during the day and rest in the breeze of the countryside
in the evening! Rome, Florence, Pisa and Siena are all within easy reach.
In 2010 the property has been fully restored and refurnished. The result
is an atmospheric ambience designed with loving care for details. The
layout and the decoration were a project of the property owner. She invested
a lot of time and love in choosing the right marble, tiles and light fixtures
for the kitchen and the bathrooms, and in finding the right material for the
sofas and armchairs as well as having a few pieces of antique furniture restored.
All rooms are provided with air-conditioning .
The house is accessed by way of an unpaved road (approx. 300 metres).
An
electronic entrance gate gives access to the property. The house is
set on a 3 hectares property, and surrounded by neat lawns it faces south.
