The best of both worlds! A large, delightfully rambling farmhouse, newly renovated, situated on a private property of three hectares surrounded by pine forests and grape vines, yet close to local amenities and the Mediterranean. There’s a great choice of walks from the house. The area around the house is landscaped with lawn and garden and the private swimming pool 10 x 5, has a wide, paved surround with sun loungers and views out to the open countryside. The pool has an electric cover to be used for security and a cabana with shower and WC.

The main entrance to the house is via a big, sunny terrace of 50 sq m into a hallway with guest powder room (WC and hand washbasin) off it. The bright and airy open plan living and dining areas have a high, vaulted ceiling with amazing huge beams; windows all round give vistas over the green countryside. Three comfy three-seater leather sofas form a spacious sitting area around a big fireplace with glass insert. French doors open to the front terrace. A counter worktop separates the kitchen which is extremely well equipped, including a dishwasher, microwave, gas hob, oven, kettle, toaster, hot drinks machine.

From the kitchen a door opens to a large covered terrace of 50 sq m with pitched roof and big beams and a teak dining setting - ideal for al fresco dining on hot days. A lawn with mature olive and pine trees meanders down to the pool.

A half flight of steps from the entrance go up to a twin bedded room with plenty of hanging space and a big window overlooking the garden, pool and pine forest. Another door leads to a small corridor with two hand washbasins to one side and a stylish, fully tiled shower room with shower, WC and hand washbasin to the other. A door at the end of the corridor opens to a landing with a spiral staircase going up to a loft room with enormous beams with two single beds and one pull-out bed, ideal for children. NB: the ceiling height makes this room suitable for children only.

Off the landing is a further bedroom with king size bed and a pitched, beamed ceiling. Two big windows look out over the view. There's also a bathroom with bath, hand held shower, WC, hand washbasin. A full flight of stairs leads down to the huge master bedroom suite with a double bed, sitting area with TV and French doors opening to a lovely covered terrace and stone-walled courtyard private to the suite.

A small corridor leads to a beautifully tiled shower room with shower, WC, hand washbasin and utilities room with washing machine, laundry tub, iron, ironing board.

Also off the corridor is a twin bedded room with French doors opening to the garden and pool and a door opening to a flight of steps going back up to the entrance hall.

All bedrooms have fans.

For your entertainment there’s a Satellite TV with free to air UK channels, DVD & CD player/radio, BBQ, table tennis table a pétanque area (boules court) and a ‘phone for incoming calls.
