Description
In the hills of Umbria on the border with Tuscany, restored farmhouse with swimming pool and guesthouse for sale. The property consists of three buildings (two of which have already been renovated) and currently houses three independent apartments (for a total of 8 bedrooms) that could be run as a bed & breakfast. The surrounding land (11.3 ha) includes a well-kept garden with a 12 x 6 m pool and a 150-tree olive grove.
A short dirt road (about 1 km) leads to a small town with basic services (3km) and to Trestina (9km). Continuing a little further, one reaches Città di Castello, where all secondary services (banks, post office, hospital, schools...) are available.
The proximity to the E45 motorway also makes it easy to move throughout Umbria, while towards Tuscany you can quickly reach Cortona (32km) and from here you can then reach the most famous and renowned art cities of the region (Florence, Siena, Montepulciano...).
DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS
The farmhouse (200 sqm – 2,151 sqft, 7 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms) is a rustic building on two floors, currently divided into three independent apartments (two on the ground floor and one on the first floor).
- Apt. N°1 (52 sqm – 559 sqft): living room with kitchen, two bedrooms and bathroom;
- Apt. N°2 (55 sqm – 592 sqft): living room with kitchen, two bedrooms and bathroom;
- Apt. N°3 (93 sqm – 1,000 sqft): large dining room with kitchen and terrace, small living room, three bedrooms and bathroom.
The old tobacco drying barn (92 sqm – 990 sqft) is in good structural condition but currently unused: by restoring the building, a lovely two-story guesthouse could be created with large living area on the ground floor and a spacious bedroom with bathroom on the upper floor.
The guesthouse (79 sqm – 850 sqft), on the other hand, is located a short distance from the farmhouse and is laid over two floors. On the lower level is a spacious warehouse, also very suitable as a garage. Apartment N°3 (50 sqm – 538 sqft, 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom) is located on the ground level and consists of a large living area with open kitchen, bedroom and bathroom.
EXTERIORS
The buildings are surrounded by 11.3 hectares (27.9 acres) of land, laid out on the surrounding hills. More than half of the property is covered by woods (7.5 ha) that provide privacy and tranquility. Surrounding the farmhouse is about 1,800 sqm of well-kept garden that also houses the 12 x 6 m swimming pool with stone-paved sunbathing area.
A short distance from the farmhouse is an olive grove (about 150 trees) that allows the production of a small amount of oil for private use.
The remaining surface is currently unused, made up of arable land (3.3 ha) very suitable for planting more olive trees and/or new crops if interested.
