This exquisite country estate, sited on a hill overlooking a bucolic meadow which will remain such in perpetuity, is a perfect combination of elegant formal rooms, ideal for gatherings, while at the same time it's appointments, including wide board floors, hand hewn beams and warming fireplaces, make each space comfortable and relaxing.
