The Grounds & Infrastructure
The hamlet is embraced by 67 hectares (approx. 165 acres) of private land, guaranteeing absolute privacy and tranquility. The grounds consist of lush woodlands, fertile arable land, and rolling pastures.

Mains electricity and telephone connection lines.
Reliable water supply via both the municipal aqueduct and three active, drinkable fresh-water springs located directly within the estate's boundaries.
