Kalanc - by Jules

“The impression of this 5-bedroom farmhouse is striking on entrance. An iconic resemblance of the original farmhouse, carefully re-enacted and brought entirely into this century. The classic restoration of this traditional home is effortlessly combined with comforts we enjoy today.

Built entirely of local limestone the entrance pays homage to the original working mill. An impressive picture of wide stone ceiling arches features throughout, toward an arch into the living area. Traditional mosaic tiles also enhance the tapestry of Kalanc.

Beyond here, the farmhouse just keeps rolling into a long lounge and spacious dining area. And still, the farmhouse ventures on. Through terrace doors we can’t possibly miss the expanse of pool terrace with its idyllic backdrop of countryside that eventually meets the Citadel.

Kalanc packs a big punch. A bold and charismatic holiday home that seems to unfold forever. Ideal for large groups and families, there is plenty of farmhouse to relax and immerse yourself.

What’s not to love about this holiday home? History, intrigue, modern finish, superior comfort, and oodles of charm!. Don’t miss the Kalanc experience and get in touch.” - Jules
