Karen and Zach looked through nearly 100 villas before finding the one that made them stop searching. Set in Italy’s Piedmont region, the centuries-old estate—with its Roman arches, gardens, and historic architecture—already had the atmosphere they were hoping for, so candles, flowers, and vintage-inspired fashion simply complemented what was there.
