The structure recalls ancient country homes used for working life, from agriculture to livestock management and even olive processing, thanks to the presence of an ancient underground oil mill inside a natural cave.
The structure, which is almost entirely on the ground floor, has 13 rooms, each with a private bathroom. The older rooms are all vaulted, with fireplaces and generously sized, while the other rooms, more recently built, are more modest in size but are always comfortable and well-structured.
There are also two independent solutions detached from the main building, a three-room apartment, probably dating back to the early 1600s, which also has an ancient oven used for baking bread, and a studio apartment, both with attached bathrooms.
The pool area, immersed in the quiet of the countryside, is complemented by a series of buildings, including utility rooms and changing rooms. There is also an ancient pajara, offering an oasis of relaxation, ideal for regenerating moments.
The first floor is currently used as a private residence and features a living room, kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom.
Adjacent to the main building is the restaurant, which also has a completely independent entrance. In good structural condition, it can accommodate approximately 120 people indoors, with approximately 200 seats available outdoors. It consists of two separate but connected rooms, a fully equipped kitchen, a cold room, bathrooms, and employee changing rooms.
The kitchen area is already connected to the terrace above, allowing for dining not only on the open ground floor but also, and especially, on the first floor, taking advantage of the beautiful view, with the sea in the background.
The property requires modernization work, has several entrances, is completely fenced, all rooms are air conditioned and has a cistern for water supply and a septic tank for waste water.
