An imposing country house on 7.2 hectares of land, with the style of a traditional country house, but rebuilt only 14 years ago to the highest eco standard (A4). An oasis of peace and privacy with landscaped gardens, vineyards, chlorine-free swimming pool with beautiful views.

The house is located just 3 km from the charming medieval town of Montelparo and is ideally situated on a private, driveway surrounded by olive trees up to the gate with a large gravel parking area. The fully enclosed garden is professionally landscaped with garden lighting. This includes wild flower fields, a playing field for children, an organic vegetable garden, fruit trees and more than 60 mature olive trees for our own olive oil production.

The land surrounding the house is one of the main attractions. It includes arable land and 2.5 hectares of vineyards of Pecorino, Passerina and Sangiovese grapes, the land belongs to the property but the vines which are impeccably managed belong to the neighboring winery who farm them according to nature-friendly principles. This family business produces a range of award-winning DOC wines.

This 5 bedroom, 5 bathroom house of approximately 320 m2 over 2 floors has been designed to the highest standards and built with reclaimed nature and bricks. It has the highest energy label of A4 because of the thickly insulated walls, solar panels, photovoltaic installation and heat pumps. The foundations are built according to anti-seismic and anti-moisture standards and the house has a double-skinned, insulated and ventilated roof. The house is truly a home for all seasons: cool in summer and very warm in winter, controlled by the zoned underfloor heating and cooling.

The quality of construction continues throughout the house with double-glazed hardwood windows, all with internal shutters and insect screens. All interior doors are made of solid oak and the interior floors, loggia and terrace are laid with high-quality ceramic tiles. The ceilings have terracotta tiles with hardwood chestnut beams. The house has tap water, 6 kW electricity, and good WiFi.
