Accomodation

The house is accessed across a restored ford and is surrounded by woodland and a private garden. The front door leads into a dramatic double height entrance hall/dining room with a spiral staircase made in a workshop in Sheffield leading to the first floor.
To the right of this room is the sitting room with a firewood stove and access to a walled rear courtyard used as a summer dining area. To the left of the dining room is the vaulted kitchen with an adjoining cloakroom.

On the first floor there are three en-suite double bedrooms, one with a private entrance to the garden on the first floor.
The property has large windows throughout made in the UK from 200-year-old restored pitched pine, giving plenty of light, as well as a number of skylights upstairs. The wooden flooring on the first floor is all in pitched pine planks.

Next to the front door is a garage, with a brick arch, used as a storeroom which could easily be added to the house or converted into an outdoor room such as a limonaia.

Land and Garden The land and garden consist of 1.5 acres (6,000 m2). The property is in a very secluded and peaceful position, and further away the woodland is surrounded by vineyards and olive groves and looks up to the medieval castle of Potentino.
The land itself is mostly woodland whilst the land around the house has been restored into a garden.
There are footpaths along the river leading to deep, swimmable, rock pools.
