Beautifully restored Tuscan olive mill - private pool - perfect for families | Villa in Capannori
4 Bedroom Villa in Cascine-La Croce, Capannori
Roocello is the perfect Tuscan home for a family gathering or a group of friends.
Nestled between two streams in a tranquil setting this once characteristic olive mill has now been restored in to a beautiful family home.
The villa is full of character and retains many original features including the original granite stones which were once used to crush the olives into olive oil.
The interiors of Roocello are a stylish mix of traditional Tuscan pieces with modern comforts, including WiFi, laundry facilities and satellite TV.
The outside areas and gardens are an absolute delight with leafy courtyards, an ancient cypress tree and a sun drenched terrace nestled under the original workings of the mill’s water wheel.
Located at the edge of the village of Colle di Compito - villa Roocello offers complete privacy and tranquility but in just a five minute walk you will reach the heart of the village with its narrow cobbled lanes - once here in the village you will find a small grocery store, a bakery where you can pick up freshly baked bread every morning, a butchers and a small bar for that morning cappuccino!
