The Evander Praedium is an elegant but lively villa found in the heart of Lycri. The main house is expansive, its red-tiled roofs and white-plastered walls gleaming under the warm provincial sun, set amid verdant orchards of figs, olives, and pomegranates. A wide vineyard spreads out over the horizon, providing sustenance for the artistic symposiums often held here, the grapes plump and the wine sweet. Colonnaded walkways lead visitors through the rest of the fragrant gardens adorned with fountains and statues, each commissioned from distant workshops across the sea. Inside, airy rooms boast frescoed walls alive with pastoral scenes and mythic tales, while the central atrium is adorned with intricate mosaics that celebrate Dionysian revelries. The home is often bustling with guests and relatives alike, giving the home a relaxed feeling rather than one of stately detachment.
