2 Bedroom House For Sale
Only steps away from the tree lined square in the hilltop ‘centro storico’ of Monterchi, this unique, three-floor detached property has fabulous views from every room. From the paved pedestrian footway, the front door opens into the hallway with a sunny sitting room to the left. Stone stairs lead up to 2 bright, double bedrooms. On the right is the bathroom while French doors open from the hall onto a south facing balcony with access to a small, secluded office/study which shares the glorious view.
Custom-made steel and solid limed-oak stairs lead down from the hall to the open plan kitchen/dining/sitting room on the garden floor. This spacious room has a wood-burning stove and an arched grotto which is ideal for storage. A wide glass door leads out to the stone-paved dining terrace and garden. A tall, secure garden-gate to the property provides external access. Adjacent to the terrace is a compact utility room housing the gas central heating boiler and washing machine. Alongside is a compact wetroom with wc, washbasin, and shower.
The adorable, secluded walled garden with vines and olive tree is a rarity in any historic centre and especially one which opens out onto such an unparalleled view. The property is completely private.
The historic, hill-top centre has a restaurant and small shop as well as a museum which houses Piero Della Francesca's fresco 'La Madonna Del Parto'. At the foot of the hill are a further range of shops, bars, restaurants and bank straddling the road to Arezzo which is only 28kms away and on a good bus route. Arezzo, a small and lovely city, has a main line train station and access to the A1 motorway, providing excellent communication to the rest of Italy. Fast Frecciarossa trains reach Rome in 75 minutes and Florence in 40 minutes.
This recently renovated, easily maintained and secure property is an absolute gem, located in a Tuscan 'borgo' which is one of the prettiest in Italy.
