Portoferraio: Seaside country farmhouse

This property, located in one of the most beautiful corners of the Island of Elba, enjoys a splendid sea view and a position which, although close to the white beaches of Portoferraio and to all the services the municipality offers, is sheltered and secluded, ensuring privacy and tranquility. The property consists of three buildings: the main farmhouse, renovated in keeping with the original spaces and with a careful, well-considered selection of materials; a small annex intended specifically as an ancillary room to the farmhouse, from which there is the best sea view; and a large cellar, once used for wine production. The refurbished farmhouse, enhanced with style and taste, is arranged over two levels connected by an external staircase; internally, the ground floor is divided into adjoining rooms connected to one another. The main entrance opens into the living room, from which one can access both the kitchen and the sleeping area. The kitchen, designed in keeping with its ancient function as the domestic hearth, has been upgraded using materials such as marble and stone. The sleeping area consists of two bedrooms/studies with bathroom. On the first floor, with independent access, there is a bedroom with private bathroom. The furnishings and materials used make the rooms harmonious, conceived to be lived in with the lifestyle intrinsic to the farmhouse. Added value of the main building are the ancient threshing floor and the well-usable outdoor spaces which, on warm summer days, are a refuge where one can enjoy the passing of time in total harmony with the surrounding nature. The annex was designed and built as an accessory to the main villa and consists of a single multifunctional room opening onto the front portico. The property is completed by over 12,000.00 sq m of terraced land, formerly cultivated, which, with minimal investment, can be planted again with olive trees, fruit trees, and the production of grapes reactivated. The location close to the sea, the splendid view of the northern coast and the white beaches of Portoferraio, the large plot of land, and the care given to every corner and space are just some of the merits of this property.
