Mike and Ann  traveled to Italy in the Spring of 2002, and again in 2006 and fell in love with the romantic nature of the people and the land.  When faced with the challenge of purchasing a new home, they looked for something that had the charm of a hilltop setting, so reminiscent of Italian hill  towns.  Although only ten minutes from the city, it seems like you are light years away. The main house, built in the mid-1960's, faces the West with incredible views of the Coast Range and sunsets that take your breath away. The profusion of rhododendron and other flowering plants is reminiscent of Bellagio on Lake Como in Northern Italy. When coming to visit, bring a camera along to capture the beauty of our Villa.
