Ask a questionAbout Nora & Michael
I am very pleased that you are interested in our home. I myself grew up near Florence and am Italian, a classical philologist. I spent with our four children 17 years in the German-speaking part of Switzerland. By now I am a retired grandmother of three grandchildren. Tuscany's historic towns, its friendly people, its simple and tasty cuisine, its intense smells and colors had already captivated me as a child and now back to my roots, I am pleased again and over again when I see that guests can share this experience. I want to promise in no case more than I can hold. Michael, my husband and I appreciate your rays, when you arrive after a long and tiresome journey and look forward to spend your vacation at our just discovered home and property. I would be extremely pleased to be allowed to get to know you personally, your Eleonora
Nora & Michael purchased this House in 1989

In the countryside with meadows, fields, vineyards, forests and caves. Adults and children love the large swimming pool and the possibility to prepare pizza, fire the pizza oven, to create their own pizza, bake it and eat it.
