Lovely farmhouse consisting of a house, an adjoining barn, a beautiful bread-oven room and a little house with conversion to be completed. The present habitable space is approx. 130 m² but it could be extended to 220m². The land is over 7000m² and consists of a garden, a courtyard with paved terrace and meadow.
