In the hills of Cetona, in southern Tuscany on the border with Umbria, rustic country house for sale. The property (almost 700 sqm) is currently active as an Agriturismo and provides guests with three apartments (6 bedrooms), a large common room and a well-kept garden with a 7 × 3 m swimming pool. About 6.0 ha of arable land allows planting vines and olive trees.
Basic services are all available in the nearby medieval village of Cetona (2km; 5') but the location of the property is very convenient to reach most of the art cities of Tuscany in less than two hours (San Casciano dei Barni, Chiusi, Pienza, Cortona, Florence, Siena...). Lake Trasimeno can also be reached in about 40' by car.
DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS, STATE AND FINISHES
The country house (555 sqm – 5,972 sqft, 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms) is a large rustic building dating back to the 18th century, laid over two floors. On the ground floor are the old stables, consisting of large rustic-style rooms, the technical rooms for the house and two large warehouses that could be transformed into convenient garages. On the first floor, on the other hand, is the residential part of the building consisting of a large common hall, also very suitable as a recreational area for guests, and three apartments:
• Apt. A: living room with kitchenette, two bedrooms in the loft and bathroom;
• Apt. B: living room with kitchenette, two bedrooms and bathroom;
• Apt. C: living room with kitchenette, two bedrooms (one in the loft) and bathroom.
The building has been renovated keeping the countryside style that characterized it, using original materials wherever possible and saving terracotta floors, wooden beams with terracotta tiles, the large fireplaces, elegant brick arches and, a very interesting detail, the beautiful outdoor loggia that gives access to the residential portion.
An agricultural shed (100 sqm – 1,076 sqft) and the former pigsty (35 sqm – 377 sqft) complete the property.
EXTERIOR
In front of the farmhouse, surrounded by pines and holm oaks, there is a 7 × 3 m swimming pool with rounded contours, surrounded by a well-kept 4,150-sqm garden where one can relax in peace on summer days. Access to the property is via a tree-lined driveway that starts directly from the municipal roadway.
In addition to the garden, the property boasts 6.0 hectares (14.8 acres) of arable land very suitable for growing local crops (cereals, alfalfa...) or planting a vineyard.
