LOTTO FARMHOUSE- The historic dwelling for sale in the hills of Pisa is set in a well-kept plot of approximately 16700 sqm, partly terraced, surrounded by well-maintained historic walls. 
The property for sale in Tuscany is immersed in an olive grove and consists of a farmhouse dating back to the 14th century, an annex derived from the old stables, and an agricultural annex. 
The residence traces its origins back to the 14th century and was part of a larger property compendium, which for many centuries was owned by various Pisan noble families, who have always maintained its original characteristics.From the driveway access, through the beautiful driveway that crosses the well-kept one-hectare olive grove, we enter a parking area, where we are greeted by the imposing façade of the large farmhouse, which maintains intact the predominant colours of the area and the typological characteristics of the buildings of the period, as well as the heraldic coat of arms of one of the noble families who stayed there.The farmhouse rises on two main levels above ground, as well as a third floor located inside the historic tower, and is divided into two independents but internally connected housing units.
Entering the ground floor of the first housing unit, we are greeted by a comfortable entrance overlooked by the original stone staircase that connects the two levels of the house. On this floor there are a large room connected to the dining room and the functional kitchen, as well as a further second open room with an antique fireplace, and a bathroom.
The first floor is entirely dedicated to the sleeping area and consists of three spacious double bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite bathroom, plus a further bathroom. 
The second unit, on the ground floor, consists of an entrance to a large living room where the second stone staircase is located, a large study/library, which could be used as a further comfortable living area, the kitchen, the pantry or storage room and a bathroom.The sleeping area, located on the first floor, houses two large double bedrooms, two bathrooms, a wardrobe room, and a large terrace. From the terrace you have access to the historic tower where there is a particular and characteristic room, which could be used as a studio/atelier.
The entire ground floor has vaulted ceilings and terracotta floors, and each room has large arched French windows that offer unique views of the garden and surrounding hills; the first floor has parquet flooring laid in a herringbone pattern.
A short distance from the farmhouse is the outbuilding created from the old stables. The building rises on two above-ground floors for a total of approximately xxx square meters and has an independent garden.
This building has undergone a very recent renovation and on the ground floor there are some rooms used as storage and shelter for garden equipment, while the first floor has been transformed into two small independent living units, perfect spaces for guests or service staff.
The first unit is a flat of approximately 86 square meters, consisting of a large living room divided by furniture into a cooking and living area, two double bedrooms, a bathroom, and a storage room. 
The second, a flat of approximately 56 square meters, is a very comfortable open space studio, equipped with a kitchenette, with storage room and bathroom.Both flats were completely renovated in 2022, the floors are wood-effect porcelain stoneware.  The heating systems are pellet, the kitchens are induction, and the windows and doors are PVC with thermal break double glazing.
The property is completed by a third characteristic stone building, originally an oil mill, of approximately 168 square meters on two levels. The building is currently registered at the land registry as a warehouse but could be converted into a civil dwelling. Recently the structure has been renovated and the systems have been redone.
On the first floor we find a large open space with original brick flooring, large double-glazed windows and new fixtures with a wonderful view of the Pisan hills. On the ground floor with an independent entrance is another large room, with very high ceilings, whose flooring reveals its history as an oil mill and where the old press is still present. 
Adjacent to the oil mill there are various terraces in the garden where a wonderful swimming pool could be built and therefore this edifice could eventually become a pool house and spa area.
This characterful Tuscan property, for sale in the hills of Pisa, reveals the charm of the past that encompasses both the peculiarities of the agricultural dwellings of the Tuscan countryside and those of the nobility; it is easily accessible and convenient for reaching the main Tuscan cities of art and the coast.
