This villa understands family life under the hot Mediterranean sun, connecting the outside terrace, with its comfortable seating, timber dining table, and gas-fired barbecue, with the cool interior through glass doors. The lawned garden has space for energetic games, including table tennis, and a large pool for a refreshing swim. Then the interior is understated and yet stylish with a palette of soft colours and striking modern art against pure white walls. The living area, all comfortable sofas, flows into a well-equipped family kitchen, simultaneously sociable and elegant. This is a grown-up family house. Upstairs four bedrooms are served by three shower rooms, one of them enormous. Local shops and restaurants are close by in the picturesque village of Selva, where life is lived at a gentle pace.
