Superbe villa de luxe avec une belle piscine, grand terrain et salle à manger Alfreso | Villa dans Forcoli

Villa Marae in Tuscany. Originally an authentic Tuscan farmhouse set within 120 acres of lush Tuscan valley and sprawling panoramic views with sunrises and sunsets to rival any in the world.
------------------
2023 Important Note -
Please be aware that we began painting the villa inside and out this year. The work has taken longer than expected. Although the inside is full complete, the outside of the villa is patchy with the repairs to the brick work. I have discounted the villa heavily due to this for this year. So, if you have ever wished to visit us, and don’t mind a patchy villa on the outside, then the rest of this season will be the perfect time to stay with us.
Second note, the tennis court was flooded this year during the storms and is not in the best condition but is perfectly usable. And the cover to the seated pool area took some damage. All of which will be repaired by 2024 season. The palms by the pool are unfortunately unable to be removed before the end of the season due to have to take up the entire pool area to do so.
Other than those few things, the villa is still a stunning place to visit and we have had many guests this year who didn’t even notice. I am just a little picky…. maybe too much so. The patchy villa you cannot miss. I have added photos to the end of listing.
