Description
In the hills of Orvieto, a few km from the town of Ficulle, stands this beautiful farmhouse with a swimming pool, an enclosed courtyard garden of approximately 2,000 sqm and 6000 sqm of land with olive trees and arable land. There is also a magnificent 12x6 swimming pool with a height of 1.20 and 2 meters deep with a large terracotta solarium. The property has been rebuilt and renovated with criteria that boast the beauty of the ancient while dedicating more current touches with particular attention to rural typicality, colour and materials.
The main farmhouse of about 250 square meters has a day floor with an eat-in kitchen, dining area, and large living room with fireplace, as well as a beautiful arched porch where you can host a table of over 50 people. A beautiful day staircase leads to the night floor where we find 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The property includes a basement with a large garage and utility rooms where it is possible to create a spa and where here too, we find another beautiful porch with arches like the one above. There is also a small annexed tool shed with utility rooms. The view of the olive groves and vineyards from the suspended rows is beautiful. Looking out the window, you will be able to admire the magnificent hilly landscape of the surrounding countryside which compensates for the view on the street. There is the possibility of purchasing additional land, an annexe and a large neighbouring farm.
This unique and wonderful property is suitable both as a holiday home for hospitality use with suggestive spaces to fully enjoy life in the open air, and as a home to live in permanently. The current owners live in it and use it as their first home from October to May; while from June to September it is destined for tourist rentals which are still currently ongoing for 2022. Future buyers will be able to continue this opportunity by obtaining a valuable income. The farmhouse is also very suitable for organizing events thanks to the large outdoor area and the beautiful arched porch where you can host a table for over 50 people both on the ground floor and below. Casale Colosseum has great potential.
