Property description
Within this very private estate there are two distinct hamlets set on the side of a hill 300 metres apart. One involves property of ca. 350m2 and the other of ca. 1000m2. Both have been fully renovated. One is currently lived in as a primary residence. At the main gate there is space enough for a helicopter landing facility should the new owner require it and then a private drive of 450m to the first hamlet. This hamlet of 1000m2 includes a main house and four guest houses. There is a 90 sqm open hall with a monumental fireplace and a stunning view over the valley. Adjoining is the main house with a vaulted kitchen equipped for significant catering. This opens to a dining room, library and drawing room – each with open fireplaces. The main house also includes an office, laundry room, master bedroom suite, four extra bedroom suites and a large private terrace. There are four further guesthouses with private terraces and between one and three bedrooms. Planning is in place for a large infinity pool and spa area.All windows and doors are in chestnut wood from the local forest and finished locally. Much of the stone is original or local. Finishings throughout are of the highest standard and quality.The second hamlet facing South East is the current owners main residence is 400m further down the main drive on the other side of a stream. Stone built and over 750 years old it has been renovated to the highest engineering standards. There is a main house, two guesthouses, sauna house, outdoor whirl pool and a 13 metre swimming pool built in stone. Drinking water comes from a spring that runs all year. There are a number of other springs that are left to the local wildlife. In backup the owner has drilled two deep wells to 230m, each which have a capacity of 40,000 litres per day. The two hamlets are at around 650m with the peak of the grounds at 900m giving ample shelter against wind. The forest is dominated by evergreen green oaks and chestnut trees., but around the houses there are hundreds of Cedar trees, olive, rosmarin and lavender all planted over the last 10 years. There is an abundance of wildlife – wild boar, badgers, foxes, hares, deer, and birds of prey….The setting of these properties is breathtakingly beautiful. There is no noise, no interruption of the views (pylons etc.), no pollution. During the sky is an azure blue and the nights are a million stars.
