Externally at the entrance to the property, you find a large and pleasant veranda used as an outdoor living area, where you can relax while admiring the wonderful panorama and the neat rows of vines below. Upon entering you are welcomed by a living room with a stone fireplace and immediately the characteristic and original terracotta floor, exposed beams and brick ceilings stand out to the eye of the spectator. Proceeding on the right you find the large formal dining room connected to the outdoor veranda. Adjacent to the dining room there is a guest bathroom and going down a couple of steps you reach the spacious Tuscan-style kitchen, with a marble sink connected to the pantry and a second veranda with a barbecue area, an ideal place for convivial lunches and dinners. A very large hallway, used as a TV lounge, located on the left side of the living room, leads to a first double bedroom with direct access to the garden.
Going up to the first floor, disengaged by a long corridor, there are five bedrooms, all air-conditioned and panoramic, each with en-suite bathroom. From each room there is a breathtaking view and the windows are pictures that tell the story of the typical Tuscan landscape, of rolling hills and bell towers, of churches and ancient villages. This level is also connected to the outside garden via two independent entrances at the back of the building.A few metres from the main house is a further stone annexe that houses all the installations in a technical room, in order to keep the interior of the house as clean and liveable as possible, as well as safer, since the boilers remain outside the main residence. In addition to containing the installations, the technical room also offers a useful storage function for summer furnishings.
There is also the possibility of extending the internal surface area of the farmhouse, in compliance with local regulations, and of raising an outbuilding of approximately 80 square metres, possibly with an underground cellar, subject to approval by the competent authorities.The farmhouse is surrounded by approximately 34 hectares of land, of which one part is an historical vineyard, approximately 3 hectares, and the same number are olive groves. The oil produced and the wine enjoy a consolidated and prestigious reputation.
