A bright farmhouse with a large olive grove, for sale in Calci, Tuscany

Often, the story of a farmhouse inevitably begins with its location, and here it could be no different….Calci, the magnificent village on the outskirts of Pisa, is the treasure chest that holds the 16th-century Certosa; it is a collection of hamlets with mills still recognizable, but even more so, it is dirt roads, incredible views, and magnificent olive groves, crisscrossed by streams and leafy valleys.

This ochre-yellow farmhouse, situated in a panoramic location, seems to strike the perfect balance between elegant living spaces and a rural setting, which constantly interacts with the interior thanks to the numerous large glass windows.

The property is reachable via an excellent unpaved road, well-maintained by the adjacent property owners: unlike other properties in similar locations, the land surrounding the farmhouse consists of terraces abd also wide areas,  supported by dry-stone walls, with well-tended, productive olive trees.

The farmhouse is spread over three levels, covering an area of approximately 270 square meters, well connected to one another by a  internal staircase and a lift: The ground floor features communal spaces such as the living room with  fireplace, the dining room, the kitchen, and the modern bathroom (as well as two rooms used for laundry and a utility room located just outside the house). From the ground floor, there is easy access to the outdoor living area: a covered space entirely enclosed by glass, extremely bright and offering panoramic views, which can be used according to the family’s needs or for a future hospitality business.

On the first floor is a first bedroom with en suite bathroom and a covered terrace, as well as a living room with access to the outdoors and a small, bright study. The upper floor offers more intimate spaces, including a second master bedroom with double windows, another large living room, and  bathroom. While the rooms on the ground floor and first floor feature terracotta tile floors and honey-colored beams, the top floor is made even brighter by cream-colored ceiling beams and hardwood floors.

The farmhouse is perfectly preserved and was designed to offer spacious, open areas that can be divided, if necessary, to create additional bedrooms.

It is sold with one hectare olive grove, with permits already obtained for the construction of an in-ground swimming pool. The property offers good privacy but is not isolated, given the presence of other nearby homes, occupied by people who share a common goal: to breathe new life into a part of Monte Pisano that would otherwise fall into disuse.

Along with the farmhouse, you can also purchase a small, adjacent rustic cottage suitable for residential use. It has been beautifully restored and is perfect for expanding a lodging business or as a space for staff or guests.
