3间卧室别墅, 130 m²

皮斯蒂奇, Matera (省)

Located in the countryside of Pisticci with one of the most spectacular views of Pisticci (those words are from life-long locals here), is Villa Girasole which sits on 3,600 square meters of fenced in land, just 5 km outside of the charming city of Pisticci.  The Villa was constructed throughout 2022 and completed in 2023.

The living space consists of the main house which includes a kitchen (with refrigerator/freezer, Bertazzoni range with gas stove and electric oven, pot-filler faucet above range, and dishwasher), bar (with Dometic wine refrigerator, Brema commercial ice maker, storage cabinets and open shelving), open concept living room/dining room with wood-burning fireplace, 2 full bathrooms with upgraded high-end fixtures (purchased from Centro Ceramiche Quinto)  and 2 bedrooms. Steps (3) leading up the hallway (with outdoor access) to the bedrooms are illuminated with LED lights.  There are whitewashed wood ceilings throughout, 4 Samsung air conditioning units (main living space and each bedroom), ceiling fans with LED lighting in each bedroom and gas-heated thermostat-controlled floors throughout the main house.  A technical room with an outside entrance from the front patio houses the laundry, hot water heater, pump for the 1500-liter reserve water tank, fuse box and the equipment for the security cameras.  The detached 3rd bedroom is on the pool deck, and we use it as our sports memorabilia/exercise room, but is can easily be converted into an income-producing short-term rental space.  Both the main house and detached bedroom are decorated with modern features and beautiful Italian tile flooring throughout as well as roller blinds on the French doors and custom draperies in the two main bedrooms.  Louvered shutter doors are installed on the main bedroom door and hallway door as well as the detached 3rd bedroom door and window.  Both the main bedroom and guest bedroom have terraces with glass doors.

Also on the property is a large freeform swimming pool with blue Italian mosaic tile, cave area consisting of a bench and table, a cascading waterfall feature and a separate hot tub on a large stone 82 square meter patio deck.  A stone circular outdoor shower sits on the side of the 3rd bedroom building and has a hose attachment for the convenience of watering the plants or cleaning the patio.  This is the perfect space for entertaining or just relaxing poolside on a quiet afternoon. 

More features on the property consist of a tiki bar with bamboo and plexiglass roof which sits at the top of the backyard along with a swing set to enjoy the amazing view of the city of Pisticci and surrounding valley below.  There is a small, covered steel structure with cement floor, measuring 1.7 x 2.6 meters, which is perfect for housing an Ape, motorcycles, scooters and/or bicycles.  The manual-gated entrance opens on to a large gravel driveway.

The property has 30 ancient olive trees that produce delicious olive oil as well as several fruit trees such as oranges, mandarins, lemons, figs, peaches, pomegranates, polar berries, nespole, corbezzolo and quince apples.  Some newly planted trees as well will produce limes, almonds and peaches in the future. Newly planted jasmine lines one side of the property as well as along the gravel area between the pool deck and back patio. Lining the front 63 square meter stone patio is a 24 square meter container garden with various species of cacti and a 3 square meter kitchen herb garden.  The back 70 square meter patio has an outdoor kitchen with a Palazzetti gas grill and wood burning Palazzetti pizza oven, as well as three built-in Tufo benches measuring 200 x 30 x 5 cm each. 

The villa is equipped with 6 HD full color 5 mega-pixel security cameras with video recorder and 2 terabytes of storage which provides a full outside view of the property on all sides and can be accessed through a smartphone while away from home.  The cameras also have LED lights which light the property from dusk until dawn.
