Imagine a stone farmhouse, built in 1929, perched on a hill overlooking a silent and lush countryside: each stone tells stories, every wall holds echoes of a bygone era. It is an authentic residence, faithful to its original architecture, welcoming you with the genuine warmth of a rural life preserved with respect and love. The building develops over two floors: on the ground floor, there are two rooms along with a storage area and a utility room. On the upper floor, two rooms with colorful cement tile flooring and views of the hills invite you to relive the simple beauty of the era. A second utility room detached from the house offers additional space for storage or transformation, while the surrounding garden provides an oasis of peace with panoramic glimpses of the valley below.
Around the farmhouse stretches a green heritage: four distinct plots of land, all adjacent to each other. The first – about 7,500 square meters – directly surrounds the dwelling. A very useful well for irrigation. The second block, measuring 6,500 square meters, is an ancient olive grove: dozens of trees, silent witnesses of years of harvests and traditions, which lend a rustic nobility to the landscape. The third lot, measuring 7,400 square meters, is a forest near the river. Finally, a large arable land of over 33,000 square meters extends over the hill in front, ready to welcome crops or to become a large agricultural garden.
On almost all the agricultural land, excluding the wooded portion, AGEA contributions are active, making the investment also economically sustainable and strategic. Potential projects: Conservative restoration: restore the farmhouse while maintaining the original materials – stone, wood, beams – to enhance its historical and authentic character. Rural hospitality: transform the house into a charming bed & breakfast or a small guest house, ideal for those seeking an authentic experience amidst nature and tranquility. Agritourism: utilize the olive grove to produce local oil and propose activities related to harvesting, with tastings. The arable land can become an organic garden or biodynamic cultivation, integrating sustainable agriculture and tourism. Natural oasis: the wooded area near the river can be enhanced as a protected area, with trails for hiking, meditation, or reading and event corners immersed in greenery. Permaculture project: design an integrated system that combines gardens, fruit trees, resting areas, and structures for permaculture, to create a regenerative ecosystem.

Why this property is special: Suspended atmosphere in time: the farmhouse is a journey into the past, a place where modernity seems to have taken a step back to enhance authentic simplicity. Intimacy and privacy: the dominant position on a hill guarantees breathtaking views, isolation, and tranquility, away from urban noise but not too far from amenities. With olive grove, arable land, and forest, the property is not only a landscape jewel but also a concrete and incentivized agricultural project. Tourist value: the idea of an agritourism or accommodation facility can enhance the investment both from an emotional and commercial point of view. Sustainability: natural resources (olives, forest, field) can be managed with sustainable practices.
