L.A. Lawyers Transform 16th-Century Tuscan Farmhouse into Luxurious Villa
Lawyers Stephen Lewis and Christian Scali fulfilled their dream of owning a property in Italy by purchasing a 16th-century Tuscan farmhouse, which they renovated into a luxury eight-bedroom villa named Villa Ardore. The couple, who had a budget of $1.5 to $2 million, faced challenges during the renovation process, including cultural differences and the extensive scope of work. However, they remained hands-on and sourced materials locally, integrating well into the local community. Villa Ardore is now available for full-property rental and offers guests a unique and unforgettable experience in the heart of Tuscany.
