Characterful property for sale with wooded grounds and a swimming pool

This property is presented by Knight Frank SNC.

This characterful property, in an authentic village setting, offers approx. 375.12 sq m of livable space in a historic period building dating back to the 13th/14th century and remodelled in the 18th century. Inside, the property works its charm straight away: high ceilings, period mouldings, and generously sized rooms lend the whole property a welcoming, authentic feel.

The house retains five remarkable stone-and-marble fireplaces, genuine period architectural features, and a two-sided hearth that makes the lounge and the hallway warm and welcoming. Currently operating as a B&B, the property offers an ideal layout for a hospitality business or a large family home. The separate areas offer a range of living options, with each bedroom featuring its own bath or shower room to ensure comfort and privacy.

The property offers significant development potential, including, a further ca. 130 sq m currently used as a loft and presenting excellent conversion possibilities, a ca. 45 sq m space on the third floor, already included in the livable space figure and fitted with hot/cold air conditioning, which could be redesigned to house a self-contained suite, an apartment or a home working area as required.

There is also a former water tank space, currently disused, with the potential to be used or converted to suit whichever plans are in mind.

The main living area looks out on to a ca. 90 sq m terrace – a real outdoor extension ideal for enjoying the fine weather and unimpeded views of the surrounding area. Outside, the ca. 3,600 sq m of wooded grounds are a true natural oasis, where olive trees, cedars, eucalyptus, fig trees, hazels, magnolias and strawberry trees grow, creating a peaceful, intimate atmosphere.

The property has a 4 x 8 metre Bali stone heated saltwater swimming pool with a self-cleaning system and a ca. 68 sq m travertine surround which blends in perfectly with its
surroundings and makes a dedicated relaxation space.

Rounding things off in harmonious style is a wellness area comprising a massage room plus a sauna on the second floor, a place truly devoted to the art of unwinding. On the ground floor, an indoor well bears witness to the property's authentic character and is a further heritage feature. As a finishing touch, a workshop, a garage, and around 90 sq m of cellars provide additional storage space.
