Subbiano, Tuscany 52010

We are in Basso Casentino, where this old water mill dating back to 1600 is located, completely and finely renovated in 2011, with luxury finishes.The property, made of stone, reflects the perfect Tuscan style, is spread over 3 levels and consists of a ground floor with a large living room that preserves the original stone wheels with the millstone lifting system, all in solid oak. Under the hall we find the cave where, in the past, the water powered the wooden blade for grinding grain, as the mill has an internal hydraulic mechanism; the cave, with ample outdoor space, can be used as a spa, next to a room that can be used as a wine cellar.On the ground floor is the main entrance with a sitting room and antique fireplace; next, an entrance to another sitting room with a very original wooden staircase for access to the ground floor/semi-basement, where there is a hall with millstones. Going up three steps we find a large kitchen with a dining room and access to the garden. Furnished with custom-made furniture, it is equipped with a gas stove with thermo-ventilated oven, dishwasher, refrigerator and additional wood-burning thermo-kitchen that can also be used for cooking and has a double-elevation oven.The upper floor houses a beautiful master bedroom with a custom-built walk-in closet, all in solid chestnut with handmade decorations. The access to it is through a study with a bookcase, custom-made, with a small oak loft. On the same floor are: hallway, utility room, single bedroom, large bathroom with travertine shower, travertine sink and custom-made solid chestnut closet with drawers. The house has excellent finishes with antique terracotta floors, solid oak parquet, restored original doors, Wi-Fi 4g, shatterproof doors, windows with wrought iron grilles. Internally we find most of the walls in original stone. On the ground floor we find a beautiful bathroom with shower, laundry room and technical room, where there is the entire heating system with a gas boiler. The property is also equipped with three individually operable pellet stoves that allow it to heat the whole house. Access to the property is via a private paved road with space for parking, all bordered by wrought iron gate fully automated and equipped with video intercom. The property also has a large garage and a large woodshed that can accommodate up to 80 quintals of wood. The property is surrounded by a fully fenced garden with chestnut poles and electro welded mesh of about 1500 sqm, the remaining 4500 sqm of woodland is fenced with hedges. In the garden it is possible to build a large swimming pool. The Talla stream runs entirely through the property, along its path we find three natural pools of water where it is possible to bathe and practice fishing for trout Fario. It is possible, with special project and feasibility study, to transform the mill into a hydroelectric power unit. The farmhouse is also equipped with an outdoor lighting system with wrought-iron street lamps and irrigation system throughout the grounds with permission for the installation of the submersible pump.The property is in a very private and quiet location, but well served by public transportation connecting the village to the train station of Subbiano, about 2.5 km away. Close to the property is the beautiful Eremo di Camaldoli only 30 minutes away by car and the Sanctuary of Chiusi della Verna only 20 minutes away.This property can be used either as a main residence or as a guesthouse.
