FIXED PRICE, NO OFFERS 

If you are looking to get away from the crowds and enjoy some peace and quiet in a stunning country setting, this could be the home for you.

This large five bedroom end terrace property (currently set out as two apartments) has been refurbished to designer standards. Modern finishes allow for luxury living, while the character of this quirky, historical property has been lovingly retained.

As you approach the area you will be wowed by the stunning mountain and orchard views. And, nestling amongst this stunning scenery is the charming whitewashed house set on a generous plot of 2000m2.

The gardens are very private and perfect for relaxing and entertaining. There is a large swimming pool, outside kitchen, shaded dining area, toilets and changing room; all of course enjoying incredible views and an air of total peace and tranquillity.

To the front of the house is a large, covered and arched veranda. This feature is typical of country homes of this time and provides the perfect shaded outdoor living space.

From here you enter into a cosy sun-filled courtyard and access the downstairs of the house. On this level you will find a modern, but in-keeping, farmhouse kitchen with marble worksurfaces. The kitchen has built in drawer fridge, dishwasher and oven and opens onto a dining area with log burner and open-plan split-level living space.

Beamed ceilings and 200-year-old decorative floor tiles add style and character. A quirky staircase to nowhere provides interesting shelving and decoration. Another staircase  leads down to a hidden snug. There are two large bedrooms on the ground floor as well as two large bathrooms / wet rooms.

Back outside you will discover stairs to a sun-drenched terrace and separate entrance to the upstairs apartment. Inside you will find another large kitchen, three large bedrooms, living area and two more bathrooms. The character and charm of downstairs continues into the upstairs apartment.

With its quirky nature, interesting design and loving restoration, this property has to be seen to be fully appreciated. So, if country living - or a rural bolt hole -  is what you are looking for, contact us now to arrange a viewing.
