Overall Property Description:
The Old Hayloft Sovaggio is the result of a sensitive and careful intervention to save an ancient peasant abode and its hayloft.
Villa Sovaggio has a total extension of 300 sq. meters, and it is built on 3 floors.
From the garden you can access a little church, now out of use, which is built on 2 levels. The upper one will be converted into a reading room within short time.
Villa Sovaggio is situated on the border of the National Park of Casentino, right in the middle of Italy, in the area where Tuscany, Umbria, Emilia and Marche meet.
Its privileged position allows the visitor to enjoy the incomparable view all over the stunning countryside of Tuscany, and with proper weather conditions, the look can also reach Umbria.
Just a few kilometres away lies the fascinating town of San Sepolcro. With its valuable architectures, it is well renowned for the battle that here took place, and for being the hometown of the painter Piero della Francesca. In the surrounding are also located the villages of Caprese, hometown of the painter Michelangelo Buonarroti, and La Verna, a mystic place with a huge monastery where S.Francesco received the Stimmate.
At guests' disposal:
