An elegant dining room leads naturally to the professional-grade kitchen, complete with a dining area and designed to meet the highest standards of entertaining. The kitchen extends onto a superb covered and heated terrace with barbecue area, creating a spectacular outdoor dining space overlooking the olive groves and surrounding countryside.
