This was a major extension and renovation. Part of the original house had been retained and fully refurbished. The double garage in front, family, kitchen and pargola at the rear and the entire first floor was added. The main concept was to take advantage of the abundance of the nature. Large openings and interconnected living areas brings in plenty of natural light, allows natural ventilation and provides vistas from every corner of the house.
