Property 157 was an old farmhouse that was lovingly restored in 2005. Located just a short walk into the quaint town of San Giovanni d’Asso with its wonderful truffle museum! This large house is a composition of two apartments, each with its own private entrance. Each apartment has its own kitchen and living room and they communicate in two points; one door is located on the first floor and the second one on the ground floor rendering the house ideal for two groups travelling together to be together while also having some privacy.
The entire farmhouse can be rented to a total of 10 people or partially to 6 people (3 BDR APT).
If only one apartment is rented, the other part will be closed and not rented to anyone else to ensure complete privacy to the guests in house.
