Description
A nineteenth century farmhouse which has been partially plastered and restored on the first floor, providing sitting room, farmhouse kitchen, 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, leaving the possibility of enlarging by converting some of the spaces on the ground floor into further accommodation given the relevant permits. The property is surrounded by nearly 8 hectares of land including a swimming pool and an outbuilding and is situated in a beautiful location within walking distance of Sarteano. It is very difficult to find the combination of closeness to the town combined with privacy and excellent views. To get the best of the magnificent location some judicious pruning of the luxuriant shrubs and trees would bring enormous benefits.
Area:
Sarteano, situated between Montepulciano and Cetona, is still a very genuine medieval town with some notable buildings and a tiny, perfectly restored Renaissance theatre, providing ample services, great restaurants and lovely people. Situated just 6 km. from the Chiusi/Chianciano exit of the A1 and 12 km. from the mainline railway station in Chiusi it is the ideal base for exploring all the splendid medieval towns of the Val d’Orcia.
Land:
The buildings are surrounded by about 7.9 hectares land with about 220 olive trees providing an excellent olive oil, most of the rest of the land is woodland. Access is by a gravel road about 600 m. from the centre of town. The road is currently maintained by a consortium of the bordering owners.
There are two entrances to the property with automatic gates .
