Description
A painting on the village for the unique view of a rural farmhouse of the late eighteenth century, that frames the characteristic village of Parrano facing the sunset of the profile of Umbria, Lazio and Tuscany. The farmhouse, whose living area has been renovated with taste and attention to detail, has been used in recent years as a holiday home and an art farmhouse, and represents a rare opportunity to walk to the services of the medieval village while remaining in the countryside. The farmhouse measures approximately 340 sq m gross, 79 sq of terraces and loggias. The habitable and renovated area is approximately 170 sq. The property as a whole is spread over three levels, two of which have been renovated and are habitable, divided as follows: Ground floor: large living room with panoramic balcony, dining area, kitchen/kitchenette, bedroom with loggia, and bathroom. First floor: two bedrooms with their respective bathrooms. These rooms have been restructured respecting the original structure, preserving exposed stone walls, terracotta floors and ceilings with period wooden beams. In the basement floors, staggered on several levels with fantastic terraces and overlooking the village, there are seven potential raw rooms for a typical tavern and now used as warehouses, woodshed and an old cave used as a cellar with a vein of natural water inside . The property is not isolated and has a road reserved for the neighboring house and residents of easy access that skirts it. The property is a spectacular terraced balcony with an exclusive land of 6,000 sqm with olive and fruit trees as well as various local essences. The farmhouse, used in recent years as an art house, represents a true local pearl. In some sections of the lime plastered walls there are frescoes by the current owner (artist/painter) recognized in the international art scene; also for this reason, the farmhouse has hosted numerous editions of contemporary art exhibitions with local and international artists. An event in particular, commemorated by a special plaque affixed to the external wall of the farmhouse, had, in 2011, Anita Garibaldi, great-granddaughter of the hero of the "Thousand" author of the unification of Italy, as guest of honour. Farmhouse for art and nature lovers where a perfect picture awaits you that portrays the home of your dreams.
This property is very particular. It lends itself both as a country residence with large spaces to fully enjoy life in the open air near the town, and favorably for hospitality use as a tourist rental in whole or in part of the property, thanks also to the presence in the past of having been a B&B as well as an atelier for artists and creative lovers. The farmhouse is therefore aimed at an attentive customer, a lover and sensitive to good taste and creativity where to enjoy its magical atmosphere and beautiful location. Convenient and strategic to live your passions and visit Umbria, Lazio and Tuscany.
