Grounds and services

The main feature of the garden is the pool which measures 3,6 x 12 metres, with generously proportioned gravelled areas around it. The garden is planted with cypresses, roses, lavender, rosemary and other flowering plants which create a pleasing and restful effect. Outbuildings provide storage for garden furniture and equipment as well as housing a pizza oven and barbecue. An underground storage tank provides a 10,000 litre reserve of water (fed by the roof downpipes) which guarantees ample water for the garden throughout the summer months. The house is connected to all mains services: water, electricity, gas and drainage.

Shops and other amenities are within walking distance in the attractive village of Tuoro. The superstrada connecting Perugia to Siena is 5 minutes drive away. This is a perfect “lock up and leave” property for those wanting a hassle-free holiday home.
