Il Casolare, a late 19th-century Alpine stone house modeled after mountain-top cottages in the Dolomites, sits atop a hill overlooking more than three acres of verdant landscape dotted with lilac bushes and other flowering shrubs that bloom from spring into early fall. An enchanting stone path leads up to the two-bedroom, two-bathroom house, with a terraced fire pit garden, many lush plantings, and a stately 150-year-old chestnut tree. The center of the home is a large, well-equipped, terra cotta floored kitchen that initially served as the goat barn when the house was built in 1890 by a family of Italian masons, and now features a wood-burning fireplace, teak countertop, and charming cabinetry. The land near the main cottage has a modern treehouse currently being used as a yoga studio perched next to a rare grove of tall fruit-bearing persimmon trees
