EXTERIOR PHOTOS ON REQUESTWe are delighted to offer you this old farmhouse which has been beautifully restored using old and salvaged materials and elements, with great views, not far from services and only 15km from the coast.
The house is 300 sqm and is on 2 floors, with two living areas, a study used as a workshop (which could be used as a bedroom), an incredible kitchen, and a bathroom on the ground floor.
On the first floor there are 2 bedrooms (and a study which could also be a bedroom) plus 2 more bathrooms.
The property is accessed by a private gate and there is a 100 metre untarmacked road to the house.
There is a lovely iron veranda where you can enjoy a fantastic panoramic view.
The ground floor has many wonderful original features, such as the floors with antique terracotta tiles, and in the kitchen are the original cotto tiles dating back to the 1800s. The kitchen is an incredible room with a huge 3-metre sink salvaged from a 1700 convent.
The kitchen has both a wood stove and a gas stove.
The kitchen leads to the dining room which has a fireplace, parts of which date back to the 1800s.
Another living area with the similar beautiful details, such as hexagonal cotto tiles and a ceiling with restored beams.
Then there is the study, currently used as a workshop, which could be an addiitonal bedroom, and a bathroom with shower.
All ground floor rooms have access to the front garden.
On the first floor there is the first double bedroom with a study next to it (which could also be another bedroom), and a bathroom with shower.
Then there's the large main bedroom suite with the bedroom with wooden floor, a large bathroom with double basin and bathtub, and a wardrobe area.
The main bedroom is unique with its beautiful glass and iron windows in the old vent openings.
The land around the house is 3 hectares, and includes a terraced garden with fruit trees, olive trees in the back garden and forest with a stream.
There a well used to water the garden.
Close to the house is an old annex of 50 sqm to restore.
A swimming pool is also possible.
