For sale a charming terraced house, free on three sides with a large garden, set in a 3 semidetached villas complex with shared swimming pool, among the Tuscan rolling hills only a short drive from Lajatico village, in the province of Pisa.
This picturesque little town in Tuscany is well known by many as the home of singer Andrea Bocelli, where each year he organises and perform a lyric concert at the suggestive Theatre of the Silence, an open air natural amphitheatre where it is possible to admire a 360° breath-taking panoramic view around the surrounding hills and over Volterra town.
The renovation of the property was completed in 2019, creating 3 independent units, each one with a private garden, car-parking and sharing a swimming pool. All renovations have been done to an extremely high quality by mixing the Tuscan style (Impruneta handmade terracotta floors, chestnut beamed ceilings) and the most modern technologies (photovoltaic system, heating and cooling system with heat pumps, double glazed windows), in fact the energy efficiency of the property is class A4 (the highest energy efficiency class).
The property measures 120 sqm between ground and first floors, 20 sqm terrace with porch, and a further 27 sqm terrace, all set on two floors, free on three sides and with 730 sqm private garden.
The main entrance of the villa is at ground level, via a panoramic paved terrace with porch for outdoor dining; it opens onto an open plan country kitchen and dining room, characterised by high chestnut beam ceilings, and a feature stone wall. Plenty of natural light, with south facing windows, and a French door to the side leading onto the superb 27 sqm south facing terrace ideal for outdoor living.
A door separates from the hallway leading onto the sleeping area, with a large double bedroom, a second single bedroom, and a bathroom with shower. The same hallway also leads to the downstairs living area, where we find a large open plan living area with fire place, very bright thanks to the two French doors opening onto a further 20 sqm porch with panoramic views over the pool and the countryside beyond.
On this same floor, there is access to further 50 sqm of storage facilities, now used to host a laundry, and storage for summer outdoor furniture. This area is a technical area and not counted in the square meters of the property as it is not considered for residential use but only for storage.
The quality furniture of the house has been perfectly and carefully studied by the actual owners, mixing modern features with very traditional Tuscan ones.
The big garden is adorned by flower beds, bushes and trees, and it allows complete intimacy and privacy and it is possible to enjoy outdoor meals while admiring a fantastic scenery.
The property is fully private, fenced, with private entrance, is easily accessible through a short local unpaved road in good conditions.
Lajatico, a mere 5 minutes drive away, offers all necessary services such as bank, post office, chemist, groceries, restaurants, bars, doctor’s and additional shops.
