This property is situated in a small village in the province of Venice. You can catch a train to Venice from a railway station that is 1.5 km from the house. It is just a stone’s throw from Riviera del Brenta, a unique blend of history, culture, art, and scenery which wends its way from Padua to the Venice lagoon. The first part of the road that leads to the house is tarred, while the last stretch is a sandy road that passes through maize and soya fields. It is surrounded by a garden of bout 2000 sq.m. that is home to many types of fruit trees - apricot, apple, pear, almond, pomegranate, fig, peach, plum, and walnut - and herbs, such as lavender and rosemary.
The house is restored in order to maintain its original simplicity and rustic state and is at the moment used as a B&B. A glass archway, which as been added, leads to the breakfast room, once a room for the stable-hands who would tend to the animals in the stable. On the other side of the breakfast room are the stairs to the first floor. Originally a hayloft, the upstairs area now contains the cosy guest rooms and bathrooms. The ground floor is also equipped with a private apartment used by the owner.
The airport is about is about 30 minutes drive away and it takes about 20 minutes to get to the sea side.
