Full Description
Detached Country House with Panoramic Views, Olive Grove and Large Rural Outbuildings
This charming country house enjoys a beautiful panoramic position on the south-east side of the hillside, on the edge of the Gran Sasso National Park, in a small rural hamlet. The property is about 45 minutes from both the Adriatic coast and Pescara Airport and is surrounded by the beautiful countryside of rolling hills, olive groves and vineyards.
The house is reached by a private road leading to the courtyard, which offers a garage, ample private parking and a magnificent walnut tree providing pleasant shade.
The land includes around 40 productive olive trees and several fruit trees.
The main entrance is on the ground floor and opens onto a spacious panoramic terrace. On one side, the terrace adjoins the roof of a neighbouring agricultural storage building. An external staircase leads down to the garden and the semi-basement level, where there are two agricultural storage rooms. From here you can access the rural outbuildings, including a traditional stone building in need of renovation, which contains the original wood-fired bread oven and former animal stalls, as well as an old hay barn of approximately 150 sq m.
The main living accommodation is on the ground floor and is entered through a bright enclosed veranda with large windows overlooking the surrounding countryside. The house includes a spacious kitchen with a wood-burning thermo fireplace and a useful understairs storage room, a living room, and, a few steps higher, the air-conditioned sleeping area with two bedrooms and a bathroom.
A third spacious bedroom is located in the attic and is accessed via an external staircase. From this room it’s possible to open an access to the roof of the veranda, which could easily be converted into a stunning panoramic roof terrace, as the steel reinforcement for the future parapet has already been installed.
At the upper end of the garden, a small bridge leads to another attic room, currently used for family gatherings, storage and preparing homemade preserves. This versatile space is equipped with running water and a large open fireplace.
The property benefits from LPG central heating, a wood-burning thermo fireplace, air conditioning, mains electricity and mains water.
A charming property full of character and potential, ideal as a permanent home, holiday retreat or hospitality business, offering generous indoor and outdoor space in one of the most beautiful natural areas of Abruzzo.
