We own this traditional house since 2009. It's a magic place with much history. The property is divided in two parts, one part is about 1000 years old, builded as fortification; the other part was added 220 years ago, passing through several changes along the years. Many families have lived here. It has been also a barn, a storage, a little school, even a shop. Later was mainly used as vacations house. Now we live in here the whole year.

We are a young family who love living in the mountains, because its peacefull life, beautifull landscape, animals always around. But also we enjoy being close to the cities, so we have always what we need to run this place.
