This interesting property was built at the beginning of the 1900s for the production of silk which was an important business in the area at the time.
The property is currently divided into 5 loft apartments of c. 200 sq.m each; 3 on the ground floor and 2 on the first floor.
The large light open spaces have been used for regular art events with exhibitions and installations from up-and-coming and well-known artists from Italy and around the world.
The swimming pool is set in an open field behind the building. The interesting architectural features remain including the chimney and an ice-deposit of ca. 60 sqm with a conical slate roof. The windows are large throughout.
A stream runs below the building and the surrounding flat fields would be ideal for horses or other sports activities such as tennis.
There is a 700 mt x 40 mt grass landing strip for small planes.There is a part of the original building which does not form part of this sale but could be negotiated separately. It was originally the oil press.
Just below the pretty village of Pieve a Presciano which has several restaurants, a shop and bar.
The area is conveniently placed for access to the major cities.
