Its name, like the bird from which it comes (the Phoenix), summarises the symbol of rebirth; and this comparison is more than appropriate considering the origins of Casa la Fenice which, from a simple country farmhouse, has been transformed, reborn, into a splendid Tuscan residence, after having undergone an important renovation which the owner was particularly keen to do, and which bears witness to the sentimental bond with these walls. We are in a lesser-known, but extraordinarily beautiful, corner of Tuscany, where the contrast, between the verdant hills and nature reserves of Berignone and Monterufoli-Caselli and the wonderful lunar landscapes endorsed by the Valle di Diavolo, stands out: with all its enchantment it offers surprising glimpses of nature manifesting itself with all its strength, giving almost an air of veiled mystery with the geothermal vents in the background. The original stone left exposed on the internal walls, the beams and terracotta of the ceilings, the bright air-conditioned rooms, each with private bathroom, and the panoramic terrace on the first floor are just some of the strong points of Casa La Fenice, where the cosy living area on the ground floor with the beautiful kitchen with marble worktop opens onto the outdoor living areas. All around, it is enveloped by a fenced garden enhanced by delightful dry-stone walls, fruit and olive trees, and embellished by numerous areas for breaks, relaxation and fun: the hydromassage tub, the barbecue area, the newly-constructed swimming pool and the numerous living and relaxation areas that will not betray the expectations of a dream stay. The house is located outside the town of Pomarance (about 1 km away), among the most representative borghi of the Alta Val di Cecina, with the Rocca Sillana dominating the natural beauty of this scenario from above. The location is perfect for enjoying privacy and tranquillity but also for exploring the splendid scenery of the Val di Cecina, a land of ancient borghi (Pomarance, Volterra, Montecatini Val di Cecina), numerous oases and nature reserves.
Interior:
Casa La Fenice has two floors connected by an internal staircase. A few steps lead to the main entrance on the ground floor. From here a staircase leads up to the first floor and a short ramp leads into the living area consisting of a spacious, well-equipped kitchen connected to the dining room; the rooms have direct access, through French windows, to the garden and are served by a bathroom with shower. Completing the ground floor are three double bedrooms with ensuite bathroom with shower, each with outside access and not communicating internally with each other. On the first floor is a double bedroom with a small balcony, a bathroom with a chromotherapy shower, a TV room with a double sofa bed and access to the terrace and, finally, the laundry room.
Park:
The park surrounding the house extends over a flat area of about 20,000 sq m and is completely fenced. The garden around the house has lawn areas delimited by dry stone walls and enlivened by bushes of aromatic herbs, fruit trees and a sea of olive trees.
