DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS, STATE AND FINISHES
The Agriturismo (320 sqm – 3,443 sqft, 10 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms) is a two-story building that houses four apartments on the lower floor, six rooms with bathrooms on the upper floor, and various warehouses and storerooms serving the business.

The restaurant (265 sqm – 2,851 sqft, 4 bathrooms) occupies the entire ground floor of the building and consists of three large guest rooms, complete with restrooms and equipped with a large outdoor gazebo for the summer. The entire eastern wing of the building is used as a professional kitchen with preparation area, washing area, pantry with cold storage, and changing room for staff.
Above the restaurant are additional guest quarters (235 sqm – 2,529 sqft, 7 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms), consisting of a large central hall that leads to seven bedrooms, all with their own private bathrooms.

Opposite the restaurant is the event area (165 sqm – 1,775 sqft, 3 bathrooms), a large space with multiple areas that include two large rooms and a professional kitchen, as well as toilets and changing rooms for employees.

Serving guests are several covered car ports, built adjacent to the farm buildings. The combined canopies include 20-kW photovoltaic panels.

The Agriturismo buildings are surrounded by 7,200 sqm of well-maintained garden on which are the 14 × 6 m swimming pool with terracotta sunbathing and a beach volleyball court.

South of the main building is the horse stables (240 sqm – 2,582 sqft) with 16 stalls, barn, tool storage, breeding area, and employee bathrooms. The roof of the building supports a 53.55-kW photovoltaic system.

Next to the stable is a small house for the janitor (70 sqm – 753 sqft, 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom), structured on one floor and consisting of living area with kitchen, office, bedroom and bathroom.

Halfway between the two main bodies is a rustic farmhouse (240 sqm – 2,582 sqft, 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms), structured on two floors: on the lower level remain the old stables with their storerooms, while on the upper level is the dwelling consisting of living room, dining room with kitchen, three bedrooms and three bathrooms. Immediately in front of the building is a shelter for animals (75 sqm – 807 sqft).

In the middle of the fields, in a strategic position to easily reach every point of the estate, there is a large agricultural shed (200 sqm) very suitable for sheltering vehicles and agricultural tools. A 20-kW photovoltaic system has been installed on the roof.

An additional building, currently unfinished and located not far from the agricultural shed, should house two guest apartments.

EXTERIOR
The estate stretches for about 414.0 hectares (1,023.0 acres), all on hills and largely covered by woods (353 ha). The farm falls largely within a hunting reserve (entirely fenced and split into four “sectors”) where typical animals of the area such as fallow deer, wild boar, pheasants, partridge, hares and deer can be hunted. The reserve has been continuously owned for over sixty years by the same people and can be renewed every five years by issuing a simple request.

Agriculturally, the farm has about 2,000 olive trees scattered around the estate on an area of almost 26.0 hectares. Large expanses of arable land and pasture (33.9 ha in total) could be used to plant new crops (including vines).
An artificial lake (located on the western side of the estate) is used for sport fishing while a second reservoir could be used to irrigate fields and crops.
