Main unit on the first floor - the owner's private home - made up of: portico, large open living area with brick arches comprising kitchen, dining area and sitting room, plus bathroom, 1 bedroom and storeroom. Staits lead down to the ground floor where there is a large laundry room and a storage area.

First floor apartment (42 sqm) comprising: portico, living room with kitchenette, 1 bedroom and bathroom; this unit could be connected with the main unit next door.

Ground floor apartment (70 sqm) with kitchen, living room with fire place and bedroom with 3 brick arches (it is an open space) and bathroom, opening onto the garden in front of the pool.

Next to to the ground floor apartment there is a spacious room which is currently used as a big workshop, but which offers potential as a further apartment of 40 sqm, or to increase the size of the ground floor apartment.

The house has been renovated preserving the antique original Tuscan features and character in a wonderful location.

The house is equiped with energy-saving systems; there are two hot-air fireplaces for heating, hot water is produced by electric boilers, and there is a 6kWp photovoltaic system on the roof of the house with a 7.5 Kwh photovoltaic storage system; the electricity line is 10 kWh; WiFi internet system and satellite TV.

There is also a 1000 l LPG gas cylinder for cooking.

A spring supplies 3000 litres of water per day with a 5000 liters collection tank and pump for distribution and water softening.

Outside the gardens include a barbeque area and a bowling alley, plus a swimming pool (18 sqm). An annex (30 sqm) services the pool with a technical room and bathroom; in the annex it is possible to install a sauna (this was originally in the owner's project).

The property is immersed in the green of the woodlands: 28 h (69 acres) surround the property including orchard, cork oak grove, meadow and woodland. Walking down the hill, 400 m away from the house, you can reach the river Cornia. On very clear days it is possible to see in the distance the line of the sea. Cecina and Follonica, 2 of the most beautiful beaches on the Etruscan coast are just 50 and 40 km from the property. It's a perfect location to enjoy the beauty of nature, the silence, the sun, the views, the varied species of fauna and flora, and the area.

The property is currently used in part as a family home and the other two apartments are rented during the season (April to October).

Canneto (8 km) has an almost circular layout and is still surrounded by its fortified walls. In fact, the village of Canneto in ancient times was a castle used as a defensive stronghold between the Cecina Valley, the Cornia Valley and the Metalliferous Hills. The historic centre (inside which is the Pieve di S.Lorenzo with a 13th-century crucifix) is built on a small but striking rocky outcrop surrounded by cultivated terraces. A half-hour drive from Canneto you can visit the Biancane Geothermal Park in Monterotondo Marittimo and the MUBIA, the Biancane Geomuseum, a very special place that will take you to another planet. In the area there is a popular and unique brewery: the craft beers of Vapori di Birra, the first Craft Brewery in Italy that uses geothermal steam as the primary source of energy for the industrial process. The plant has been designed and modified to take advantage of the potential offered by geothermal energy, and allows maximum energy savings in heat production and minimal environmental impact.

Canneto is also well known for the winery of "Tenuta di Canneto", with gentle hills overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, lush vineyards, centuries-old woodlands and thousand-year-old olive trees. The Canneto Estate tells a story of beauty and authenticity, with wines born from a generous land and passionate work, the reflection of a unique and fascinating territory.

Distances: Massa Marimttima (30 km), Monteverdi Marittimo (11 km), Canneto (8 km), Pomarance (24 km), Volterra (50 km), Pisa (98 km), Siena (80 km).
