Just a couple of minutes drive (1.5 kms) from the friendly little town of Mercatale, Catani is an old stone farmhouse that has been restored to a high standard sitting right in the middle of its 3.6 hectares of land. Not only is the property is accessed by a private drive and not overlooked by anyone, it also benefits from lovely southerly views down into the valley.

Constructed of local stone under the traditional pantiled roof, the house is on 2 floors. On the ground floor is a farmhouse kitchen/diner, bathroom and study/bedroom 3. Also on the ground floor, but only accessed from outside is a large store and technical room, housing the plumbing and heating system. Stairs from the kitchen lead to the first floor where there are 2 double bedrooms and a large sitting room with a super efficient enclosed wood fire.

The house has 3-phase mains electricty, gas central heating, abundant soft water from a recently drilled deep borehole and telephone.

There is an ancient bread oven adjacent to the house and a very useful detached barn presently used as a garage and for further storage.

On the land there are 120 beautiful mature olive trees.
