The building N°2 (35 sqm – 377 sqft) is a two-storey structure which could be used for an apartment on the upper floor (18 sqm) with cellar (17 sqm). The loft is not habitable but could be used as a storage room. Outside, the building is equipped with a basin easily converted into a swimming pool.

STATE AND FINISHES
The cellar, heart of the property, is in excellent structural and aesthetic conditions and is currently used at full-regime to produce wines. The roof of the building houses a photovoltaic system providing energy to a part of the property (4 kW), well-blended with the roof tiles and then almost invisible.
The other buildings, some of which currently used as storage rooms, need several works but many of them could be easily converted into small residential units for an accommodation business. Two of the cisterns on the cliffs could be converted into swimming pools for the accommodation business.

EXTERIORS
The estate, built along a cliff overlooking the sea, covers a total surface of 22.0 hectares (54.2 acres), masterfully terraced so to fully exploit lands placed on steep slope, and falls inside the Parco regionale dei Monti Lattari. Cultivated following a totally organic management we have a vineyard (6.1 ha), an olive grove (2.4 ha) and a lemon grove (2.6 ha). The remaining surface (10.9 ha) is covered in woodland and Mediterranean scrub. Among other things we have figs and prickly pears which (together with grapes and lemons) are used in the production of organic marmalades and jams.

The vineyard (real heart of the business) is made up of varieties typical of the area and allows producing three types of wines (white, red, rosé).

The olive grove is the result of a careful work of recovery operated on old trees, together with the replanting of new specimens, and allows nowadays the production of Colline Salernitane DOP extra-virgin olive oil.

The wild fennel growing inside the estate is used to produce another liquor named Finocchietto. The production of the two liquors currently ranges around a few thousands bottles, but could be further increased.

The property is currently run as an organic farm with production of wines, oil, jams, lemons and liquors.

The agricultural activities could also act as learning activities for visitors, a way to shows the peculiar cultivation systems needed in the area and the productive processes involved in the production of wine, oil, jams and liquors.
