Count Mario Nerucci bought Villa L`Apparita at the beginning of the 19th century. The villa had originally belonged to the Placidi and then to the Bandinelli families.
A portico formed by two orders of four full-centre arches attributed to architect Baldassarre Peruzzi characterises the simple structure of the country villa.
The garden of the villa was designed by Pietro Porcinai and realised between 1963 and 1966. In this case, the architect took advantage of the land morphology to hide the approach to the villa and the car park.
Most of the plants in the garden are of local origin: lavender, broom, strawberry, pomegranate and olive trees and cypresses are planted without following any precise scheme. In the garden has been realised an open-air theatre.
