Podere Monticelli - For Sale €250,000

Overview - When one thinks of Tuscany, one thinks of olive trees and vineyards.  This property is situated on a very quiet road and overlooks the best part of the Lucchesia.  It is the area of the spectacular villas of the area as well as the Fubbiano vineyard.  It has easily access and fabulous views.  It will need restoration but with the new government incentives it make a great investment.

The gently sloping hills around are dotted with small villages characteristic of the area with houses built from the Matraia stone which is no longer worked.  The villages are all interconnected by mule tracks and original, white roads.  There are restaurants dotted around to make a wonderful destination for a Sunday walk.

This stone building faces south/south-west and enjoys fantastic sun exposure.  The land behind is perfect for the installation of photo-voltaic cells for electricity.

The house is traditional with beamed ceilings and some terracotta floors.  Outside is a pizza/bread oven.  One enters into a hallway with the kitchen on the left and a sitting room on the right.  Up the stairs, there are three, large bedrooms and a landing.  The vertical structure is good and each one of these rooms has space for an en-suite bathroom.

On the first floor, there is a large room which is finished to builders' finish.  This would make a great taverna for when the pool is the epi-center of family activities.  The land for the pool is behind the house and therefore it would make sense to use this room during the day.

A few meters away is the barn which could make a garage and a guest suite if desired.
