Upper floor
The upper floor has retained the simple lines of an old, traditional farmhouse.
The apartment consists of a spacious Tuscan style kitchen with original sandstone sink and open fireplace. In the old rural tradition, the kitchen was the room where, especially in the cold winter months, the family spent most of their time. The centrepiece of the room was the fireplace; the area next to it was and is still called the “canto del fuoco” and was the place where in the chilliest days old and young gathered to warm by the fire. Perennially hanging from under the hood, a blackened kettle or a small water-heater were the only source of hot water for house consumption .
In the chilly winter evenings, the fireplace was where the family gathered to talk about the hardships of everyday life and where the kids listened to the stories told by the old folks.
The floor is rounded off by a living room with sleeper sofa, one master bedroom and one bathroom with shower.
