Description
|
Situated in one of the most sought after areas of the Umbrian Countryside this fully restored farmhouse enjoys some of the most outstanding and unspoiled views of the Niccone Valley incorporating the 14th century castle of St Andrea di Sorbello and the recently restored San Paolo monastery on the Reschio estate.
Perfectly positioned for enjoying spectacular sunsets under strategically placed shady pergolas.
The building was restored four years ago offering spacious modern living amongst a wealth of original features. the ground floor contains a fitted country kitchen with double dishwashers and large cooker, cosy dining room, walk through pantry, spacious office or study, double bedroom with en-suite shower room and a second en-suite shower room conveniently located for easy access to the pool.
The second floor has an elegant double sitting room of 40 square meters with high ceilings and five windows giving plenty of natural light. A typical Umbrian stone fireplace, terracotta floors and old timber beamed ceiling make this room warm and inviting. Each window frames a view worthy of an oil painting. Two double bedrooms share a family bathroom and one bedroom has access to the typical external staircase. All bedrooms, living room and dining room have a wood burning stove as an alternative to the full gas central heating.
A glass door off the living room gives private access to stairs to the master suite which occupies the entire upper floor of nearly 50 square meters. Once again the abundance of windows (seven in this suite) gives the natural light that can be so hard to come by in these thick walled structures. The master bathroom has modern fixtures and fittings and gives the opportunity to absorb the outstanding view whilst bathing.
A curved edged 10 x 5 heated pool is situated on a lower terrace. A second pergola for reading with sun shades for pool side relaxation. The pool equipment is located in an underground bunker which is also convenient for storing sun beds and outdoor furniture in the winter. There is an external shower, many mature trees, about 40 olives and a 13,000 litre storage tank to retain water for the house and irrigation. The annex has been re built and houses the water treatment equipment and boiler for the house.
If this location appeals, then this has to be on your list. Highly recommended viewing.
