Description of buildings

Country Style farmhouse develops over three floors for a net saleable area of 310 sq.m. In addition, we have a 24 sq.m portico and a 43 sq.m canopy with a barbecue area.

This farmhouse was built following the natural course of the hilly terrain.

The main living area is at the same level as the swimming pool and back garden, whereas the bedrooms and accessory rooms are on the lower floor, whose windows and entrances overlook the valley.

Farmhouse - 310 sq.m over 3 floors + portico of 24 sq.m.

11 rooms - 4 bedrooms - 5 bathrooms

Ground floor: a kitchen, a bathroom, and a portico with a wood-burning oven in front of the main entrance overlooking the garden. Moreover, the airy living room, the sitting room, and the dining room all feature a fireplace.

The basement: 2 bedrooms, both with an en-suite bathroom and access from the outdoors, and 2 additional bedrooms and 1 bathroom.

The lower floor: a kitchen with a fireplace, two airy accessory rooms and 1 bathroom, an underground cellar and a cave. Storage room with an independent entrance.

Canopy - about 43 sq.m.

The beautiful 43 sq.m canopy with a barbecue area stands in front of a beautiful pergola overlooking the swimming pool and the well-presented garden.

The area is calculated on the basis of the net floor area including interior partitions and increased by 10% for load-bearing walls. 

The portico and the canopy areas are calculated separately and should be added to the total area.

State and finishing

The property is in good condition. Its exteriors feature exposed stonework in typical Umbrian-Tuscan style. The interiors stand out for their rustic, warm, and cosy atmosphere, thanks to the wooden ceilings or with beams and tiles and handmade terracotta floors.

External areas

A quiet road skirts one side of the property, which protects its privacy thanks to an exposed stone wall and tall, lush jasmine hedges.

The property is accessed through a gate downstream of the 1.87-ha private plot of land (including the building grounds). Here, you can find a paved parking area, a lawn with a canopy and a pergola overlooking the swimming pool. Moreover, the barbecue area makes this place ideal for outdoor lunches and dinners. The remaining plot of land is across the driveway.

Use and potential uses

Country Style farmhouse is in a convenient, private position (Città della Pieve, Cetona and Chiusi can be reached in about 15 minutes, while Perugia, and its university, is just 40 km away). That’s why it’s ideal as a main residence or a holiday home. You can also rent it through the international rental circuit when not in use.
