Description

An attractive three bedroom village house with an attached older part, courtyard, garden area, two external purpose built B-B-Q’s, garaging for three cars and a fully decorated and finished annex.  Although not fully detached (which is typical of the local and Italian houses), it is still very private and offers a deceptively large and roomy house.  The newer part of the house currently contains three large bedrooms, a comfortable kitchen, large living room (with built-in open-plan fireplace) and a fully fitted and modern bathroom.  Also part of the newer section is the annex, which connects to the main house via a separate door and which is fully finished, allowing for an extra independent apartment if wanted.  Most rooms are double-glazed and this part of the property merely require cleaning and minor decoration in order to make it fully habitable.    However, the older part, which currently is reached via a separate entrance, does require significant input, but when completed will provide an extra (minimum) of two large rooms. 

 Externally, there is detached garaging for three cars, while at the front there is a large sweeping courtyard, stone steps, private iron gates and, to the side, a small garden area.  Although the property generally is untidy and messy (at the sale, the vendor has agreed to clear the miscellaneous debris away on sale, it is in a wonderful location and offers extensive panoramic views of the broad valley and mountains. 

 Fully enclosed and private, the house is located in the small (but very exclusive and up-market) village of Villaprara, which in turn is only around 3kms from the main town of Carpineti.  The property fronts a minor, but excellent quality road, which to the left will take you to the local administrative township of Carpineti, while the other way will take you to Felina and Castelnovo ne’ Monti (9km), the capital town of the Apennines.  This makes the property very convenient for schools, shops, supermarkets, banks, theatres etc) and offers tremendous possibilities, both as a family home and/or as a property to convert and use as a B&B or guesthouse or for renting out.  Realistically priced, early viewing is strongly recommended.
