The “Micheletto” vacation house
The
house is a typical country house which,
over the years, was expanded to keep
pace with the growth of the family
The
principal body goes back to the 1880 and
reflects the rural materials and the
characteristic construction techniques
of our area: exposed stone and mortar
for the structure and chestnut timbers
from the area woods for the ceilings.
In the
restructuring process, we have carefully
preserved as much as possible the nature
of the building, limiting ourselves to
internal changes related mostly to the
division of the living space to adapt it
to the new uses, which has resulted in
four distinct living units, each with
its characteristics and each with
dedicated outside space.
Each
unit takes the name of the tree that
distinguishes it, and thus the olive
dominates the garden of the first unit,
the pittosporum lives at the foot
of the stairs that lead to the seconf
unit, the century old carob
invites into the third unit and the
almond shades the fourth.
