Large 16th century house located in Nonza (classified village) in the Corsican Cape


A HOUSE CHARGED WITH HISTORY

Character house dating from the 16th century housing an antique oil mill. It is located in the heart of the village, in the quarter called "Casa quadra" (or barracks) of Nonza and is a real history book. Rented by its owner who had placed himself at the service of the Order of Malta, it sheltered in particular the Lieutenancy of Pascal Paoli during the short period of the independence of Corsica. Subsequently, it was inhabited by Giovanni Mattei, Corsaire in the service of the Viceroy Gilbert Elliot, during the Anglo-Corsican kingdom. The following years, intrepid commanders of the merchant marine or military who participated in the great adventures of their time as the expedition of the Duke of Luynes in the Red Sea, lived there. It also sheltered very famous hosts such as Pascal Paoli, James Cook (discoverer of Australia) and more recently the painter Léonor Fini or the singer Jean Ferrat.

DESCRIPTION OF CASA MATTEI

The house is distributed on four levels:

- The bottom of the house allows access to the gardens which offer a splendid sea view.

- The ground floor consists of a large office (access reserved to the owner) and the pink room (master suite / parental suite) with a large double bed and a bed of a bed, the all opening onto a large private bathroom and modern with wc.

- On the second and last floor, you will finally find the dining room / lounge with TV (flat screen) and a very functional kitchen (microwave - dishwasher - washing machine, gas cooker with extractor hood, fridge and freezer, oven, coffee maker) .
It is also on the top floor that you will find a large terrace covered with a pergola where you can have lunch or dinner with friends.
The terrace offers a breathtaking view of the gardens of the house, the former gendarmerie, the mountain, the village, the tower, the sea and further afield the Gulf of St Florent.
The living room offers a beautiful view of the black pebble beach, the church and the Café de la Tour under its plane trees.

Une maison corse comme on l'imagine

La mer vue de la terrasse, la mer dans le salon, la mer vue de la salle de bains ... Au coeur du magnifique village, à l'ombre de l'église, une maison corse comme on l'imagine, pleine de la vie des anciens mais qui offre aussi à chacun la part de confort et d'autonomie qu'il souhaite. Le propriétaire, Jeaul Paul Mattei, est disponible, accueillant mais reste très discret. On sent qu'il aime sa maison, son village et sait le faire partager. Merci !

Magnifique maison et propriétaires extrêmement attentifs

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour facilité par des propriétaires extrêmement attentifs au bien-être de leurs clients et très aidants. Nous remercions encore Jean-Paul Mattéi et sa fille pour leur sens exceptionnel de l'hospitalité.

Le calme et la beauté

Nous avons passé deux très bonnes semaines de vacances dans la maison. Le village est extrêmement beau et d'une authenticité rare. La maison est à l'image du village, préservée et très agréable à vivre. La terrasse et sa vue imprenable sur le golfe de Saint Florent, ne gâtent rien et nous y avons passé de très bons moments.

Ein Schmuckstück aus vergangenen Zeiten

Zauberhafte Casa aus dem 16. Jahrhundert mit einer grossen Dachterasse mit Blick auf das Meer und den Sonnenuntergang, welcher nicht schöner sei könnte. Wunderbares altes Mobiliar, mit 2 neuen Bädern auagestattet. Nach 2 Wochen im Örtchen Nonza fühlten wir uns beinahe der Ortsgemeinschaft zugehörig.

Ein außergewöhnliches Haus mit viel Geschichte

Das Haus ist einzigartig und fast vollständig mit passenden historischen Möbeln eingerichtet. Man spürt förmlich die lange Geschichte des Hauses. Der Blick von der Dachterasse ist grandios. Lediglich die Bäder sind modern gehalten. Die Lage von Nonza ist einzigartig und sehr sehenswert. Insgesamt ist es eher ein Urlaubsort für naturverbundene Leute, wer den großen Trubel braucht sollte lieber anderswo schauen. Wir verbrachten in dem Haus eine sehr schöne Woche, die uns noch lange in Erinnerung bleiben wird.

Uriges Haus mit Meerblick

Das Bergdorf ist tagsüber sehr belebt, morgens und abends aber sehr ruhig, verschiedene Restaurants, eigene Bäckerei und kleines Geschäft - alles im Ort, was man braucht. Der alte Weg zum Strand ist urig, aber etwas anstrengend, dafür sind auch nicht so viele Leute am Strand. Im Haus fühlt man sich wie vor 100 Jahren, alte Einrichtung, inklusive knarrender Türen und alter Matratzen, was leider für den Schlaf etwas störend war, die Küche ist aber mit allem ausgestattet, was man zum kochen braucht (inkl. Küchenmaschine!), auch die Bäder sind super. Herrlich ist die Terrasse, geräumig und Wahnsinnsausblick!! Alle 10 hatten wir am Tisch Platz und genossen jeden Tag wieder das Frühstück an diesem schönen Platz.

Eine besondere Unterkunft

Der einwöchige Aufenthalt in diesem Haus war etwas Besonderes. Das Alter verleiht ihm einen besonderen Charme. Die Dachterrasse haben wir für ein gemeinsames Frühstück und zum Ausklang eines Tages genutzt. Tagsüber war es während unseres Aufenthaltes (Ende Juli/Anfang August) zu heiß dort. Da es in diesem historischen Haus natürlich keine Klimaanlage gibt, waren auch die Nächte sehr heiß in den Schlafzimmern. Die alten Betten sind für sehr große Menschen nicht geeignet, sie sind für 2 Personen auch sehr schmal. Die restliche Ausstattung des Hauses ist sehr gut. Die Lage in Nonza ist ein guter Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge in andere Orte oder Strände in der Umgebung. Insgesamt hat uns der Urlaub in Nonza und der Aufenthalt im Haus von Monsieur Mattei sehr gut gefallen!

Nous avons passé un magnifique séjour dans cette très belle et unique maison / la vue est époustouflante et le village l’un des plus beaux de france est très agréable / le soir venue on se sent au bout du monde avec des familles corses et leurs enfants revenues pour l été. Loin du tumulte de Saint Florent et avec une vue sur le désert des agriates

秘密の場所

Nonzaの村は、私達、画家にとって特別な場所です。まさに絵になるところでした。Cup Corseの山道を走り続けると突然現れた美しい村には、感動しました。Mr Matteiの家はローケーションも抜群で,アンティーク家具に囲まれた各部屋は、まるで時代を、遡ったかのように 感じました。特にテラスは、居心地が良く、塔を眺めながら、眠る以外のほとんどの時間をここで過ごしました。私達は、滞在に必要なすべてのものが完璧に揃っていました。たった1週間の滞在が自分の家のように、くつろぐことができました。Nonzaの人々は親切でフレンドリーでした。私達は、又ここに戻ってくるでしょう。心からの感謝を込めて。ItsukoMizuno
