Large farmhouse of ancient origins that is situated at 430 meters above sea level on the Appennino Aretino mountains. The house is part of a hamlet composed of 3 farmhouses that all belong to the same family of owners. It is surrounded by beautiful woods and dominates the surrounding countryside. There is a 6 X 12 meter swimmingpool 100 meters from the house which is for shared use with the cccupants of the other apartments. Ideal for those who wish to live in contact with nature and take long walks, the house is also strategically positioned for visits to places of cultural interest.
La Verna, with its monastery and natural spring waters, Poppi and its castle and golf course, Vallombrosa, Camaldoli and the Riviera of Romagna are all within easy reach. 500 meters past Ornina is a public telephone, while Salutio with basic shops is at 1.5 kms. Talla offers all shops and most facilities, including public tennis courts and swimming pool at 5 kms.
Rassina is at 10 kms, also with all facilities, and sits at the side of a small stream that eventually becomes the Arno river, as it descends from its source at Monte Falterona. At Santa Mama is an artisan blacksmith called Caporali that merits a visit. The locality of Stia, nearby, is famous for the yearly Blacksmith Fair and Exhibition that attracts the best blacksmiths from all over the world and visitors from all over Italy. Stia is also famous for the typical "Casentino" fabric, produced there for centuries in the two traditional colours: orange and green. Horses can be hired at Santa Mama, and Arezzo is at 30 kms, while Firenze is at 70 kms.
Access to the house is from the private parking area above. There is a vast lawn that gently slopes to the covered loggia in front of the entrance. The loggia is private and provided with plenty of garden furniture. Down one step from the loggia is the entrance to Ornina, which opens into a hallway.
On the left of the hallway is a corridor with three doors. The door on the left opens into a complete bathroom with shower niche. A door in the middle opens, down one step, into a twin bedded room (beds can be united on request). The third door, on the right, across from the bathroom, remains closed. This door opens onto a staircase that leads down to the lower section of the house that is reserved by the owners for their private use.
From the hallway, down one step, is a landing with stairs leading up to the first floor. To the right of the landing is a small, but complete bathroom with shower stall, while straight ahead is the spacious living/dining room with fireplace and door to a small loggia that leads down an external flight of steps to the rear garden. This garden is connected to the front of the house by an external flight of stone steps. Next to the fireplace are two doors: one opens into a double bedroom, while the other opens into the spacious, livable kitchen that is fully equipped with mixed range, gas oven, fridge with freezer, dishwasher and washingmachine.
The stone steps that lead up from the landing to the first floor, terminate in a hallway. Up two steps on the left is a modern, complete bathroom with both bathtub and shower. Next to the bathroom is a twin bedded room. To the right of the hall is a double bedroom. The house is comfortably furnished with a combination of antique and modern pieces. There is a telephone for incoming calls, satellite TV, a baby cot, high chair, a barbecue, and central heating. Gas is payable on consumption during heating season together with firewood.
