This 3-bedroomed, semi-detached farmhouse (parts of it are 500 years old) with private pool sits on a hillside overlooking the lush Umbrian countryside. The garden has three alfresco dining areas for you to soak up La Dolce Vita. All the joys of Tuscany and Umbria are on your doorstep. You can explore the local markets, historic towns (Assisi, Arezzo, Florence, Siena, Gubbio, Cortona), visit vineyards, take cooking lessons, or simply enjoy outdoor activities in the tranquil surroundings. This rustic farmhouse is setup as two fully equipped independent apartments with separate entrances. It's ideal for small groups or families who want to be together while also retaining a bit of privacy. Although the house is semi-detached it feels very private and if you are lucky enough to bump into the neighbours they are an older Italian couple who are supremely hospitable. The house retains the natural beauty of its rustic and humble origins. Carefully preserved original features such as old gnarly wooden beams, wonky terracotta floors and a magnificent stone bread oven, all give a unique timelessness to the dwelling. GROUND FLOOR The entrance has a porch with an historic bread oven built into the side of it. There are two double bedrooms. One has a spacious bathroom with bath, shower, bidet, sink and toilet. The other bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with shower, sink and toilet. A small utility room is also situated on this floor. In true Italian style, there is a large family kitchen at the heart of the house. While all the appliances are modern, the look and feel is true to its farmhouse origins. The dining table comfortably seats 10 people and has been the scene of many a lively dinner. The kitchen leads out onto a small courtyard with a kitchen garden and steps that lead down to the pool. TOP FLOOR Past the entrance is a cosy living room comprising two sofas (one of which is a new sofa bed) and a fireplace. There is also a traditional style kitchen with a dining table for 4 people. The majestic and spacious master bedroom sits at the end of this floor. Adjacent to the bedroom is a large bathroom with bath, shower, toilet, sink and bidet. THE OUTSIDE AREAS There are three great seating areas outside for you to make the most of the alfresco lifestyle while enjoying gorgeous views. The first is the pergola that is next to the pool (10x5m) and the sun lounger area so you can enjoy lunch while the kids play in the pool. The massive table comfortably seats 10 people (pictures coming soon as this is new). This area is very private and set down to the side of the house overlooking a valley of oak trees. The second area is on the other side of the house where there is a large terrace area with a table for 6 that overlooks the olive grove and rolling farmlands that surround the house. It is a perfect spot to have a sundowner/eat dinner and watch the sunset. The third area is a small kitchen terrace and herb garden that is a great spot to catch the early morning sun with a fresh cup of coffee.
