This stone-built village house, dates back to a couple of hundreds of years and has lots of potential, especially as it can be lived in while being renovated! The property consists of fully renovated spaces, including two bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen and living room, as well as a number of areas/rooms in need of renovation, with a prospect of creating more bedrooms or even separate guest accommodations.

A small courtyard separates the main house from an independent large room which is currently used as an art studio. This room used to be the main kitchen of the house as it housed the old oven. Although the room also needs some updating, it is in use and can be converted into either an additional bedroom, an office or anything else. At the west side of the ground floor, across the second courtyard, is a shower room detached from the main house, which also houses the washing machine.
