This is a raw diamond you can convert into the most charming home! All rustic elements are there for you to incorporate in a contemporary project with lots of personality. The rustic floor tiles, the wine cellar, the under-floor wine deposit (“el cup”), wooden beams and massive stone walls, the stone sink, and the fireplace in the kitchen. A unique feature of this village house is the large garden, all walled in by a beautiful stone wall that gives privacy. Add a pool and create a splendid private oasis, perhaps with an outdoor kitchen, to enjoy with family and friends!
We are happy to connect you with a local builder who knows the house in detail, is experienced with antique constructions and who can also assist you throughout the project regarding paperwork etc., evaluate ideas etc.
