Sfioro

Outdoor living is at its best at Sfioro with views that you will never forget! Climb the steps from the car park area and reach a shady terrace with table and chairs that creates the ideal relaxed atmosphere for al fresco meals - especially with the great barbecue! Stylish wooden furniture and sunloungers deck the terrace that surrounds the incredible infinity pool with marvellous views out over the Tyrrhenian Sea. The villa also has an utterly gorgeous aperitivo area, next to the three bedrooms on a raised area, with comfy rattan sofa and swing seats - just perfect for watching the extraordinary sunsets.

The villa is divided into two parts. Enter into the main part of the house and you will find yourself in a simply stylish living room and kitchen with a guest bathroom and shower on the ground floor. Head downstairs and reach the games room - complete with table tennis and table football - as well as one ensuite double bedroom. The first floor is a large ensuite master bedroom, with access to a first floor roof terrace with fabulous views.

Cross the covered barbecue area and you will reach the second part of the property: three double bedrooms, all with phenomenal views out to sea through large floor-to-ceiling windows. These three bedrooms are on a slightly raised terrace, accessible via a few steps. Two of these bedrooms share a bathroom, whilst the third is more independent with its own ensuite.
