This villa for rent in Italy has been utterly transformed from its origins as the former garden house of a nobleman's palace, into a contemporary showplace with echoes from its past. Designed and renovated by celebrated South Tyrolean architect Walter Angonese in collaboration with artist Manfred Alois Mayr who developed the color palette and selected the materials, the villa is an unexpectedly modern version of a traditional Tyrolean chateau.
One of two villas on the site of a former nobleman's palace in South Tyrol, this historic home in the picturesque wine village Kaltern is settled into wonderful Mediterranean gardens surrounded by vineyards, and is only two minutes' walk from the town center.
The heart of the villa is the spacious dining and living area with a modern fully equipped kitchen that leads out to the grapevine shaded terrace. One en suite double bedroom and an additional guest bathroom are also on this floor. The next floor up houses two double bedrooms and two baths and there is an additional double en suite bedroom with an outside sitting area located next to the spa area.
The sunny south-facing balcony and cool north-facing balcony invite you to relax, and the sauna helps you unwind even further. The private wine cellar features a selection of vintages from the throughout the area, one of the most popular wine regions within the country.
Surrounded by a beautiful and biodiverse Mediterranean garden with sun beds, open barbecue and herb gardens, one of the highlights of the property is the eco-friendly, natural swimming pool with dining and lounge areas facing the gorgeous views.
