Property description
Tranquility awaits at Casa Bici, behind the privacy of a walled garden with lush landscaping beneath a canopy of trees. This property is brimming with charm. Escape to the backyard that offers a private oasis with pool/BBQ/patio area with plenty of outdoor space for entertaining. Situated in the town of Sustinente in the province of Mantova, close to the Po River. The property consists of three two storey houses, all under one roof, each with their own entrance which guarantees privacy. The main house has been recently renovated throughout, and is ready to move into and enjoy.
Main house - Warm, welcoming and full of character. Set over two floors offering approximately 210 square metres of living space. From the front door, enter into a light and open entrance hallway, turn left into the dining room with ample seating for friends and family, from here a door leads into the live-in fully fitted kitchen where an array of cupboards and drawers hold an abundance of storage, topped by hardy work surfaces. In the centre is the kitchen island breakfast bar with seating, an ideal place to perch, eat, read, and relax.
Whatever the season, flow out to the rear backyard with more seating and a barbecue area filled with the aroma of herb planters; a real Mediterranean oasis. Dine alfresco in the summer, or take a dip in the salt water pool, whilst gazing up at the deep blue sky or the stars throughout the long hot summer months.
Back inside there is a guest bathroom with wc and shower, and a study with a door leading out onto the rear patio. From the entrance hallway a staricase leads to the first floor where we find four generously sized bedrooms, all with windows that frame views over the front garden or rear backyard. One bedroom is currently used as a home office and library, another as an art studio and another as a dressing room. The family bathroom has been recently upgraded and features a double vanity sink unit, extra large walk in shower and luxury floor and wall tiles. Air conditioning throughout.
Guest house Il rustico- The central portion of the property, simply decorated and fitted out as a self-contained lettable home or guest accommodation. Also set over two floors, it offers approximately 78 square metres of living space and comprises of an open plan living area with cooking corner, on the first floor is a bedroom with bathroom with shower. This unit is not air conditioned.
Guest house Casa Ciro - The third unit, also very simple, set over two floors measuring 144 square metres consists of entrance, live in kitchen and living room, first floor with two large bedrooms and a bathroom. This unit is not air conditioned and needs renovation.
Two garages and ample driveway for parking, complete the property.
Potential
Set behind a set of electric gates, just off the main road connecting this sleepy town to the city of Mantova, you won't know Casa Bici is there until you've found it. Once you're within the walled garden though, you'll forget the close proximity to the road. Great potential as it can be used as a primary residence or holiday home.
