Unique Country Property for Sale in Riparbella

Exceptional property for sale in Riparbella, nestled along the Cecina River with vast land and great commercial and residential potential. General Description: This unique property, located just 10 km from the sea in Cecina, offers an exceptional opportunity. It extends over approximately 67,000 sqm, appearing even larger as it borders the riverbanks of the Cecina River, featuring exclusive access to the river. The river Cecina, running alongside the property, boasts two beautiful river beaches and eco-friendly trees. Access to the property is via a seldom-used railway crossing. On the property, there are three buildings, legally registered but in need of restoration as they have been abandoned for many years. The largest structure is a two-story stone and brick house, spanning approximately 400 sqm. Constructed in stages, starting from the first half of the 19th century, it comprises storage rooms on the ground floor and two residential units on the first floor. Adjacent to this main building is a small annex with a room and a bathroom, covering approximately 25 sqm, as well as an old wood-fired oven. Additionally, there is an 85 sqm commercial building located about 300 meters from these two buildings, designed for use as a bar and restaurant. It is constructed with reinforced concrete and complies with current building regulations. Near the house, there is an ancient Roman well with an adjacent historic brick washhouse, providing a charming atmosphere. Between the house and the commercial building, there is a reinforced concrete tank, categorized as a swimming pool, measuring 50m x 45m, covering a total area of 2,250 sqm. The pool has a depth of approximately 160 cm and is divided into two equal sections by a central wall. This structure, labeled as "pools," is yet to be lined and completed. These pools could potentially be used for running water, given the abundant potable water resources on the property. There are two artesian wells, both duly declared, one of which is sourced from the spring from which the locality takes its name. The spring water is classified as hypothermal ferrous mineral water, known for its hydrotherapeutic properties. Considering the ample water resources, the land is suitable for various agricultural, horticultural, and floral uses. In the eastern part of the property, relatively close to the house, there is a 550 sqm vineyard of D.O.C. Montescudaio, featuring Sangiovese and Trebbiano vines. There are also around forty olive trees in production. The area around the house boasts fruit trees such as cherry, plum, pear, pomegranate, and lemon trees, along with beautiful trees including a centuries-old oak, palm trees, rose bushes, oleanders, and more. Near the commercial building, there is also a small lake. The property is designated as "tourist-recreational area, aimed at developing the river park of the Cecina River" in accordance with urban planning.
