Description from owner

Description

Casa Poiana is set in just the perfect spot. It is in the countryside and totally private, with the most awesome view you can imagine: Oaks and olive groves interrupt rows of grape vines meandering down the hillside to the lake shore. The house is on a hillside above the medieval town of Bolsena, just where the regions of Tuscany, Umbria and Lazio meet. The area is known to locals as Tuscia, after the ancient Etruscans who populated the area before the Romans.

The house has a master bedroom with a dressing room and an en-suite bathroom, a large kitchen / living room, which opens out onto the terrace and garden, a bedroom with twin beds, a main bathroom with bathtub and a lounge with fireplace. The ceilings are made of terracotta with large chestnut beams. All the rooms have separate exits onto the terraces and the garden surrounding the house and the use of glass is maximised to take full advantage of the truly superb views.

The house is a 5 minute drive to Bolsena town, which is rich in history, pageantry and of course, food. There is pretty much everything you need in the town. The lake is also 5 minutes by car and you can windsurf, sail, waterski and swim. If you are more of a cultural bent, you can explore the literally hundreds of cultural sites, from Roman and Etruscan ruins to medieval hilltop towns and fortresses.

The house is also perfect for the winter months as we have installed under-floor heating and thermostats throughout (an extra cost for heating is levied when the system is in operation) and the lake views can be even more impressive in winter.

Further details indoors

The spacious live-in kitchen/dining room is fully equipped, with quality cooking utensils, a 5-ring gas stove, electric fan oven, electric kettle, food processor, toaster and a large walk-in pantry for food storage.
The dining area is open to the kitchen and has an antique pine dining table and a sofa.

The main terrace off the kitchen is the centre of the house in the summer and enjoys a cooling breeze off the lake for much of the day. It is an alternative outdoor dining and cooking area with the built-in stone grill forming the central feature.

The living room is a comfortable glassed area with a large fireplace, . This room contains a sofa bed, chairs and a wide-screen TV with Satellite programmes in English. The living room also gives on to an out door patio area covered by a pergola. Separate couches and armchairs furnish this outside area

Bedroom 1 with double bed is comfortably furnished and has a walk-in wardrobe and en-suite bathroom. A door gives onto a small covered terrace at the side of the house.
Bedroom 2 has 2 single beds and is across the hall from the main bathroom.


Bathroom 1 en-suite bathroom to bedroom 1 with shower, wc, bidet and washbasin.
Bathroom 2 is the main bathroom with bath, shower head, wc, bidet and washbasin.

Further details outdoors

The house is surrounded by three patios, all of which are covered by roofing or pergolas. The gardens and grounds are ample and include open grass areas, tree-shaded areas, olive grove and the property gives out onto extensive open woodland.

The main terrace is the centre of the house in the summer and enjoys a cooling breeze off the lake for much of the day. It is an alternative outdoor dining and cooking area with the built-in stone grill forming the central feature.
