Surrounded on every side by rolling hills, oak woods, gullies, cultivated fields, and picturesque hilltop villages, Podere Collelungo offers a secluded yet accessible retreat of rare natural beauty. The property benefits from a generous fenced park of approximately one hectare, providing ample outdoor space for relaxation and exploration.
