Villa unifamiliare in Alà dei Sardi

Interior of north-eastern Sardinia: hilly, granite-based countryside with Mediterranean maquis, oak and scattered farmland. The immediate area is rural with small villages and dispersed farmsteads rather than a single named landscape feature within 15 km. Nearest regional town of size is Tempio Pausania, which provides shops, banks, municipal services and a regular market. The local economy is based on small-scale farming and pastoralism, with cork production and granite quarrying important in the wider Gallura area. The main airport serving the zone is Olbia Costa Smeralda (to the east), and the northern Tyrrhenian coast and its tourist resorts lie on the coast beyond the coastal plain.
