CUTIGLIANO Already the arrival at the house is suggestive: a gravel road in MacAdam stone, the beech woods that open the house that appears, the view that opens onto the paved square with the ancient stones that were the floor of the house, the soft mountain grass...I forgot to tell you that here they are at an altitude of 1000m above sea level!
A beautiful 19th century mountain house: exposed stone, a storage room, a garage, a flat garden furnished and partly paved with stone, a "basin" with steps arranged in an amphitheater all full of grass with the cultivation of blue hydrangeas...Downstream the panorama of the Tuscan hills...think that when the sky is clear you can also see the Tyrrhenian Sea and the island of Elba!
We are just above the village of MELO, one of the many villages of our Apennines, about six kilometers from the medieval village of Cutigliano, 6 km from the Doganaccia ski slopes, 900 meters from the first shops.The Tuscan sea is only an hour away by car...
And like the many villages of our beautiful mountain, here everything is marvelous woods and mule tracks, old stone houses and rustic restored better than any chic city house.
When I first saw this house I thought it would be perfect for me.
I enter the house and there is tea which is ready.paterlenghe tea, one of my favorites...
Giovanni and Titty, the owners of this beautiful mountain farmhouse have done a splendid renovation work: they have made it beautiful, practical and functional and at the same time respected and valued its soul and taste for life and good living in the mountains.
Giovanni welcomes me and begins to describe his house to me: he has done the whole renovation...
"The house is in the mountains" he tells me "and has the classic 10x20 meter base structure typical of all mountain farmhouses in the municipality of Abetone and Cutigliano.The supporting structure is made with cyclopean stone walls exposed externally and internally plastered.
The rooms are the right size and arranged in the right way.The ceilings are made of beams, tiles and planks that make you feel sheltered and warm.And then the fireplaces, the stone of the walls, the polished wood of the ceilings and floors, the wrought iron: all this gives you a great feeling of "home".
All the floors I wanted them in wood, but be careful "he tells me" the wood is all laid by hand so it is deliberately irregular and when you walk on it creaks so it conveys that rustic feeling that a glued floor will never have! It is also easy to clean.
The roof with its original and wonderful 200 year old structure is made of exposed wood and finished with slate slabs.Obviously the boards are new and the roof has been insulated.
Here on the ground floor there are more level accesses from the garden.The whole floor is intended for the living area there is this beautiful with dining room, there is a fireplace lounge, a kitchen, a brandy lounge with a fireplace, two bathrooms plus other rooms used as technical compartments.
The first floor that we are going to see after "continue Giovanni" consists of three large attic bedrooms, two huge bathrooms and an all-white room that is my home cinema area.I brought the internet to 30 megs.Outside the cinema area there is a porch."
The tea is finished: we get up and go around to see the house: everything is just as Giovanni told me, everything is finished with great care both in the "bulk" and in the many details that have been enhanced to the maximum.Loved the double bookstore upon arrival...CONTINUE ON THE SITE.
