This property is in the classic style of old traditional farmhouse dwellings. It requires renovation though when finished will provide ample accommodation for a large family. It has the potential for a secluded retreat for either private or commercial use, being suitable for agriturismo (eco-lodge)

Externally and internally the villa is well cared for, and its arrangement is accommodating as either a family dwelling, or as a seaside retreat for retired or business professionals wishing to enjoy the beauty and tranquility of the Cilento coast.

It is easily reached from Castellabate a few kilometres away, a village itself directly on the shores of the Mediterranean, providing all of the necessary local amenities, shops and services.

Local Delights: The sea, olive trees, olive oil, wine, fresh air, pristine landscapes, longevity and philosophical contemplation.

The Cilento region has become famous for its inhabitants' long-lived lives, probably due to a combination of high oxygen (you can definitely sniff it early morning), olive oil (believe us, its the best), chili peppers and, if the locals are to be believed, having many children. However, for men, you are advised to bring your own women -at least to start - and women, you are advised to keep an eye on your men.

Moreover, this part of cilento is littered with signs of early "philosophical activity", dating back to the 6th Century BC. Indeed, the whole of the Cilento Coast was inhabited by some of the greatest philosophers of all time, among them Parmenides -he who asked "Why, prey tell, is there something rather than nothing?" He was of course referring to the universe, why it existed in the first place, and for that, he set off an enquiry that remains unresolved till today. You are invited to try your hand at finding an answer, especially if you also come to live in this most splendid part of the world. If you don't quite find the answer though, you can console yourself with excellent wine and delicious cuisine, among other delights.

Over all comments: A stunning property, elegantly traditional to the highest standards. Enjoy sophistication and simplicity, nature and quality yet not be far away from centres of activity and interest. Perfect for families, couples, retired, writers, musicians artist and probably almost anyone except philosophers, for they are sadly usually rather poor (unless you are the exception).
