They have transformed the domain into a luxurious hospitality project and artisanal olive oil production.\nUngaro was born to humble beginnings in a family of tailors who fled the Fascist regime in Italy for Aix-en-Provence in the 1920s and would ascend to become one of the defining designers of his generation before his passing in 2019, aged 86.

The estate had been abandoned and in a state of disrepair when Emanuel purchased it in 1986. Over the next half-decade, he proceeded to restore the property working with local stonemasons, painters and architects to transform it into his own private “Maison de Liberté” that he and his family would escape to every summer. “This place changed my father,” recalls Cosima.\n“We are stewards of this place,” says Austin. “We wanted to transform the place into something where people can feel a sense of growth, refuge and to feel anew.”\nWhen Bill Sofield and his partner, Dennis Anderson, purchased their Maine lighthouse 25 years ago (on a whim—they were reading the Sunday New York Times real estate section ove","images":["https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1046/1958/files/neptunepaperscover.jpg?v=1763670551"],"price":42,"currency":"USD","in_stock":true,"inventory_qty":19998,"dynamic_pricing":false,"listed_at":"2026-06-18T20:44:11.558Z"},"share_url":"https://firestarter.network/l/lst_jVympRgR","purchase":{"summary":"Live product listing on the Firestarter agent commerce network.
