Country House in Magliano in Toscana, Tuscany, Italy

Tuscan villa with dependance & 18m pool

Traditional Tuscan Villa located in the Maremma countryside close to Magliano in Toscana, and 15 minutes from the stunning Argentario coastline, complemented by extensive grounds, olive grove, outhouses, bread oven and large 18 meter recently completed swimming pool.

The Villa has been restructured by current owners with full planning permission obtained, and preserves a traditional Tuscan Casale structure, retaining some original features and covering circa 260m2 over two floors, as well as characteristic corner terrace. The house is complemented by three dependence buildings, as well as a large garage used currently for a full-size snooker table and games room, a separate newly constructed 3-car covered garage and an original working bread oven.
A beautiful 18x4 meter swimming pool stretches between the house and the dependence, giving onto the Pineta below, and surrounded by a local stone perimeter as well as a second pergola and barbecue area.
The house is entirely independent but local neighbours are at easy access only a few hundred meters away, whilst the local town (Magliano in Toscana) is only 4 minutes away by car and home to various local shops, renowned local restaurants and regular culinary festivals.

The house benefits from easy flat road access and wonderful views over the Tuscan hillside on the rear of the property over the pool area. The ample grounds of circa 7,000 m2 are home to 35 large Olive trees (producing circa 70litres of oil per annum, several fruit trees including persimmon, lemons, plums, and apples, and circa 110 vines arranged giving onto the hills behind the house. A restructured and fully functioning well resides in the grounds, and currently serves all water gardening functions connected to an irrigation system and timer. One of the dependence has been converted professionally into a characteristic wine cellar at ground level, with full insulation and temperature / humidity infrastructure implemented. The large driveways and adjacent areas around the house provide enough room for over 10 cars.

On the ground floor a large open kitchen and dining room retains original flooring and provides access to the grounds via a large refurbished French window. On the ground floor we also find a very large double lounge area (opened up during recent restructuring works) with functioning fireplace, and a second kitchenette including laundry area. The significant walls retain warmth in the winter and keep the house cool in summer, but the house is also fitted with modern air-conditioning splitter units (serving hot and cold air) and complemented by two pellet heaters and two vintage wood burning stoves. A small entrance hall joins the main entrance to a downstairs bathroom, and the kitchen / lounge areas.

A wide staircase leads to a spacious landing with a door to an ample outside terrace overlooking the pineta and the pool. The terrace also adjoins to one of the four large double bedrooms we find on the first floor, one currently used as a study and bedroom, with a wall-mounted safe. Two of the bedrooms have large walk-in wardrobes. A second bathroom with shower completes the first floor.

The house is fully connected to water, gas and electricity and benefits from two electricity meters with enhanced powerage, as well as high speed ADSL.
