Layout
The village home with a living area of approx. 110 sqm net is situated on the ground floor and first floor of a traditional ancient house. The entrance and the staircase are shared with the neighbour apartment above.
The ground floor apartment consists of an entrance hallway with two storage rooms to the right and left, three bedrooms (one of them without window), a bathroom with bathtub, a live-in kitchen and a central living room with a balcony, offering beautiful views. The façade of the house has been restored and double-glazed windows and new shutters have been installed.
On the first floor there are two rooms of about 15 sqm completely to restore (one room plus a kitchen).
The ancient olive oil mill of approx. 65 sqm is in the basement and disposes of its own entrance from the garden, thanks to the hillside location. It is currently used as a storage room and for the heating system. Magnificent vaulted ceilings, the grinder and millstones are still preserved. After restoration, a spacious tavern, a studio or similar could be built here.

Garden
The garden of approx. 225 sqm faces south-east and extends over 4 terraces directly in front of the house. Various small squares, paved paths and stairs, flower beds and fruit trees such as apricots, cherries, lemons and kumquat are surmounted by a pergola with seating and entwined by a kiwi plant, overlooking the well-tended garden. Here you can relax and enjoy the mild Mediterranean climate and nice views of the idyllic landscape!
