Ancient and historic building in the centre of Seggiano. The building dates back to the 16th century and has maintained its completely original interiors. The building enjoys plenty of light thanks to the large windows overlooking the valley of Seggiano. The large terrace of about 65 sq.m also allows you to further enjoy the open space and the view. The building is on the edge of the village, in the area facing the San Rocco oratory.
The living area is accessed by two possible entrances, one central with a large peperino stone portal, and the other adjacent. The ground floor area consists of a large hall with a fireplace dating back to the 17th century, the kitchen, dining room, pantries, a toilet and a bedroom with its own bathroom. On the ground floor there is also a recently renovated independent flat, which can also be accessed from the street, with a kitchen andfireplace, a living room with a fireplace, a study, a bedroom and a bathroom. From this floor there is access to the terrace from which there is a magnificent view. On the first floor there are a further 4 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and a large hall, again with windows overlooking the view. On this floor, somewhat detached, there is a large room now used as a painting studio. The old wooden beams and the terracotta floor make this room, which is somewhat separate from the others, very evocative and suitable for artists who need quiet for their creations. 
Not far away, a circular staircase, also in terracotta, leads to the attics which are in need of renovation, but are completely habitable and very charming. They make up a further 222 sq.m that can be restored.
The underground spaces are also very interesting consisting of various cellars and rooms that take us back to ancient times when wine, oil and cheese were stored here. Most of the cellars have large peperino vaults and could be used for various purposes. Many of the large doors have independent access onto the street below. One of these cellars gives access to a small private courtyard, now shared with the neighbour. It is a small protected space, with an old well inside that is now disused.
Slightly detached, with entry through a beautiful stone door, there is access to the private garden of about 300 sq.m.
The building has all utilities and autonomous heating. It is in good condition and is used regularly by the current owners as a holiday place for them and their friends.
It is very suitable to be transformed into a charming B&B.
The streets of Seggiano are narrow, but with a car you can get to the front of the house for loading and unloading. 
The building is historic and therefore listed under the Conservation Act.
