Apartment in farmhouse Orciatico

Description

In the beautiful countryside of Lajatico, just five minutes from the village centre and two minutes from the charming hamlet of Orciatico, we offer a semi detached farmhouse with two hectares of land in a spectacular panoramic setting. Lajatico is a picturesque hilltop village in the province of Pisa, internationally known for the Teatro del Silenzio, the open air amphitheatre where Andrea Bocelli performs each year. The village offers all essential services including restaurants, bars, bakery, butcher, post office and bank. It also enjoys a strategic position, only forty five minutes from Pisa International Airport and the coast, twenty minutes from Volterra, thirty minutes from the Castelfalfi golf course, one hour from Lucca and one and a half hours from Florence.

Property Layout

The house is easily reached via a short unpaved road in excellent condition. It is arranged over two floors for a total of around one hundred sixty square metres.
The ground floor includes a large room currently used for storage which can be converted into a spacious lounge with bathroom, since plumbing connections are already in place. There is also a wide open plan kitchen and dining area with stairs leading to the first floor.
The first floor offers a sitting area, three bedrooms, one of which has air conditioning, a storage room and a bathroom.

The property features traditional Tuscan elements such as exposed stone walls, terracotta floors and wooden beamed ceilings. The structure is dated and requires renovation work to reach its full potential. All utilities are connected, including mains water, solar panels of three kilowatts, a pellet stove and an LPG gas tank. The attic contains a one thousand litre water tank as an additional reserve.

Outside, the property includes a charming wood fired oven.

Additional Buildings and Land

The sale also includes a large ruin of around four hundred square metres on two levels, which can be restored and converted into a guesthouse or into the main residence. The land extends for two hectares and includes fifty olive trees, a small vineyard and arable land. A rainwater collection cistern is located on the property.

Why This Property Stands Out

The farmhouse enjoys breathtaking three hundred sixty degree views and offers total privacy without being isolated. It is an ideal solution both as a second home and as a permanent residence thanks to its space, land, privacy and proximity to village services.

A rare opportunity to enjoy authentic Tuscany in one of its most sought after areas.
