Truly a stunning, well loved home, thank you for the tour! I even loved seeing the little crane(?) on the second floor balcony, I often wonder why we don't see them more often in these lovely, but multi story homes, such a perfect way to haul heavy groceries and supplies! I have fallen in love with many of the lovely homes you feature, but this one is truly special, it would be perfect for me. I'd happily live in the second floor apartment, love the kitchen, and the little library/office room with the divine view is a perfect place to hide away and dream. The first floor apartment would be perfect for the younger couple I'd need to help with the gardening and maintenance (I'm probably close in age to the current owners). This is another one that is a jewel waiting for the next generations that will love and appreciate all the love the current owners put into it over the years, can't help feeling rather sad for them, selling can't be easy.

That single bedroom would make a great office or study. Everyone needs a place to do the books, read, drink a little brandy or port. I love the way they haven’t cluttered up the house too much furniture. Very tasteful. A roof terrace would be a lot for a house with this much interior and exterior space. The price is very doable.

Yes, it's close to all kinds of hiking and climbing areas. Have a look at end of town tour in vid when he is up at the Balzolo trail. You can see much more of it if u go to streetview in Maps. You can climb up from the open terrace area where there is a bar/Cafe seen in vid, past the "Penna" stone and keep going up along the ridge to Rifugio Pomilio at 1940m asl, starting point for longer hikes up to Blockhaus, anfiteatro delle Murelle and up-to highest peak at Monte Amaro at just under 2800m asl. Property is in hamlet of "Capolegrotti", just off main road Ss263 on way up to Penna from Palombaro. Property is on left side of road towards mountain, just look for the olive trees. Large pasture area and the quadrangle roof over the outdoor area.
