Stone farmhouse with swimming pool in a dominant position

This type of stone farmhouse, in particular, belongs to an increasingly rare category.
An authentic early 20th-century structure, fully restored through the recovery of original materials, complemented by handcrafted and period elements. In essence, a continuity of habitation has been preserved — its character retained without alteration.

The restoration has consolidated the entire structural system, including the complete reconstruction of the roof, while preserving the original spatial logic. The large central fireplace remains, fully functional, as the gravitational core of the house.

The property
The main building is arranged over two levels for approximately 260 sqm, distributed with a clarity that derives from the original layout rather than later modifications. The interiors are generous, conceived to be lived in rather than reinterpreted.

Ground floor: two multipurpose rooms, double living area with fireplace, eat-in kitchen with pantry, two bathrooms.
First floor: three bedrooms, a study, three bathrooms, storage room and two walk-in wardrobes.

In addition, a 25 sqm cellar.

A 26 sqm portico opens the house towards the surrounding garden.

Adjacent to the main house, an independent 42 sqm guest house introduces a defining element: living room with fireplace, kitchenette, bedroom and bathroom. A separate, autonomous space, ideal for guests or for a more private dimension of the property.

Overall:
5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, 3 living areas with fireplaces.

The setting
The location is one of the most difficult features to replicate.

The estate is fully fenced, accessed through an automated gate, and positioned on a hillside that is private yet not isolated, with straightforward and direct access — an increasingly rare condition for this type of property.

Within short distance:
the medieval village of Scarlino (800 metres), the sea and the marina (7 km), achieving a precise balance between accessibility and privacy.

Outdoor space
Approximately 6,000 sqm of garden surround the farmhouse, integrating with the olive grove that defines the property, where centuries-old trees are still productive, alongside a small orchard.

The swimming pool, of contemporary design, integrates naturally into the setting.

The outdoor space is usable, continuous and coherent with the house.

Summary
This property is not defined by the sum of its features, but by their coherence.
An authentic farmhouse, restored with genuine respect for its original materiality, a privileged setting, and a guest house that extends its potential without interfering with the main residence.

A property for those who recognise when a place has preserved its identity.
