Farmhouse with an old olive press near San Quirico d'Orcia

The eighteenth-century olive press is still on the ground floor, with its stone mill and timber press: it has become the heart of the house, a living room six metres high where long dinners are held. The 520 m² farmhouse has stone and exposed-brick walls, staircases with travertine steps, six bedrooms and five bathrooms.

Outside, 80,000 m² of olive trees that still yield an oil the owner is proud of, a vegetable garden, a small holm-oak wood and a pool ringed with lavender. A three-room cottage, the vaulted cellar and four parking spaces complete the property. Independent heating and solar panels.
