Description
An ancient farmhouse from the 1800s
The farmhouse with its surrounding land is one of the oldest properties in the municipality of Duino Aurisina. The earliest maps, dating back to the first half of the 19th century, depict this charming farmhouse with an extensive courtyard, enclosed by a wall of Karst stone.
Surrounded by open and sunny spaces, it is located just a few hundred meters from Duino Mare, easily reachable on foot, and near the panoramic Rilke Path overlooking the gulf which runs between Duino and Sistiana.
The farm is peaceful and secluded yet immersed in a pleasant residential area that extends beyond the road to the typical harbor of the village. It is conveniently located close to both the main road and the highway, and within walking distance of a well-stocked supermarket.
Also part of the property is a 30,000 square meter oak forest on Monte Hermada, and approximately 38,000 square meters of pasture land, both available for negotiation in case of interest in purchasing.
The farmhouse is spread over two floors, with a residential area on the ground floor comprising a dining area with kitchen, pantry, and living room with direct access to the cellar. On the first floor, there are three bedrooms with a bathroom and anteroom, totaling 232 square meters. Outside, there is a balcony, typical of Karst houses, connecting the living area to what were once the barns and attics. Through the balcony, there is an external staircase leading to the courtyard where the second cellar, shower and external toilet facilities, a storage room, the stable, a small stable, several tool sheds, and a brick chicken coop are located, totaling 662 square meters. From one of the tool sheds, where there is also an ancient oven, there is access to a large meadow suitable for cultivation or pasture and a sinkhole, totaling approximately 4,000 square meters, all within the property.
The possibility of internal vertical and horizontal connections suggests a renovation that would create either a single building or multiple separate units. The charm and historical significance of the place and the farmhouse, reminiscent of the early 1800s, would allow the transformation of the property into a unique structure with both hospitality and private use.
