Casa Felice Matteucci is a gem of a Tuscan farmhouse set on a stunning estate of hill-terraced olive groves and overlooking a small lake with its own little tree-shaded island reached by a wooden bridge. It is a special home of great comfort and elegance with 6 luxuriously appointed guestrooms and magnificent en-suite bath/shower rooms for up to 12 guests. The ground floor is a spacious and sunny spacious living room with comfortable sofas, a guest study, a grand domed dining room, and a Tuscan kitchen. The jasmine-covered gazebo surrounded by lawned gardens sets the perfect backdrop to the flood-lit swimming pool. Casa Felice Matteucci is a blissful retreat to discover and enjoy the magical beauty of la dolce vita.
Located near the small town of Vorno, Casa Felice Matteucci offers luxurious accommodations in the heart of Tuscany.
Surrounded by terraced olive groves, this magnificent 19th-century villa was once the workshop of Felice Matteucci, inventor of the internal combustion engine. Recently restored to the highest level of style and comfort, Casa Felice Matteucci is exceptional in every way.
