Villa Tauro

A fireplace framed by a massive 18th century stone portal, and hundreds of rare majolica tiles (used on the treads of the stairs and in the bathrooms) add a bold sense of history to this modern villa, without for a moment compromising its air of light maritime minimalism. The fireplace, surrounded by random antique majolica tiles and framed by the antique portal, is the centrepiece of the huge living room, with terracotta floor, white and cobalt blue walls, white sofas and huge glass windows opening onto the terrace and pool. There is also a gorgeous Sicilian kitchen, with huge fridge, double range and zinc fittings, opening on a luminous dining area.
A staircase leads to the upper floor, with three double bedrooms. One has an ensuite bathroom, while the other two share. All the bedrooms open onto a large panoramic terrace.
