Nestled in the hills of Monte Altura lies this beautiful villa, perfect for those who want to just get away from everything. Enjoy the natural daylight permeating the indoor space and spend some time by the private pool in the morning, whether you're starting your day with some laps or a cup of coffee on the covered veranda. In the evening, the uniquely-designed fireplace makes the living space into the perfect cosy spot for everyone to gather for a movie night, or just to socialise and recount tales of the day. The kitchen gives you direct access to the barbecue area, so dining alfresco has never been easier, no matter what's for dinner. Challenge friends and family to a game of chess with the unique board in the living area after dinner. In the evening, head out to the terrace at the back of the home where you can enjoy a breathtaking panoramic view of the Maddalena Archipelago as the sun sets. When you're not enjoying the peace and quiet that this traditional villa affords, you can take the car for a day trip down to one of the nearby beaches – it's only a short drive to the coast... where you'll find the golden sands of Spiaggia La Sciumara. A short drive will also take you right to the town of Palau – a charming town by the sea, steeped in history and peppered with fantastic local restaurants, shops and experiences to help you make memories that will surely last a lifetime.
