Some properties are purchased as an investment.
Others are bought as a place to spend holidays.
And then there are places we choose because, at a certain point in life, we feel the desire to slow down, breathe and live in a more authentic way.
This property belongs to that last category.
We are in Casteddu, near Biasì, in the municipality of Padru, in the heart of authentic Gallura. The final two kilometres are along an unpaved country road winding through cork oaks, Mediterranean vegetation and open countryside.
It is a journey that gradually leaves traffic and the hectic pace of everyday life behind.
Here, nature takes centre stage.
The property extends over approximately 10,000 sqm of land, fully fenced and well maintained. Part of the land is characterised by beautiful cork oaks, while the remaining area offers generous outdoor space to enjoy, cultivate or simply appreciate throughout the seasons.
The owners did not want to create just another country house.
Their project was born from the desire to create a place where they could live in harmony with nature while reducing dependence on traditional utility networks as much as possible.
For this reason, the property was designed to be largely self-sufficient.
Water is supplied by a private well connected to a water storage system serving the property, while electricity is generated by photovoltaic panels with battery storage.
Today, this represents not only a particular way of life, but also an interesting added value.
A project has been developed for the property which includes the construction of a residential home of approximately 100 sqm, together with an approximately 50 sqm agricultural/tool building, the latter of which has already been constructed.
The main residential house still needs to be built, but an important part of the work has already been completed: the concrete foundation slab for the future house has already been laid.
The tool/agricultural building has already been completed and can be used. Inside there is a central kitchen area with two separate accesses to the outside and two rooms, each with its own bathroom.
From a cadastral point of view, the buildings are currently in the process of being registered under Italian cadastral category F/3 – units under construction.
Before completion of the sale, the current owners will arrange for the renewal of the building authorisation required to continue the works, allowing the future owner to proceed with the construction of the main residence on the basis of the existing project and the works already carried out.
Another important aspect is that the entire technical procedure is already being handled by a local surveyor (geometra) from Padru, who is familiar with the project, the documentation and the property.
The future owner will therefore not be left to deal with the technical process alone, but will have the possibility of being assisted by a professional who already knows the project and its documentation.
Transparency is particularly important when purchasing a property as unique as this one.
For this reason, we would like to clearly point out a characteristic of the immediate surroundings that prospective buyers should be aware of before arranging a viewing.
An outdoor shooting range used for training and sporting activities is located in the immediate vicinity of the property.
The range is not used every day, but periodically, on certain days and at certain times. Activity tends to be more frequent during the period leading up to the hunting season.
When the range is in use, due to its proximity, the sound of shooting can be clearly heard from the property.
As this is a rural area, hunting activities may also take place in the surrounding countryside during the periods permitted by law.
We prefer to make this clear from the outset so that anyone interested in the property can make a fully informed assessment of the location before arranging a viewing.
For those who enjoy country life and are not disturbed by this type of activity, this remains a very special place surrounded by nature and far from an urban environment.
Anyone looking for absolute silence at all times of the year should, however, carefully consider the proximity of the shooting range.
The surrounding area retains the authentic character of the Gallura countryside. Several traditional agriturismi can also be found nearby, offering the opportunity to discover Sardinian cuisine and local traditions.
Although surrounded by nature, the property is within easy reach of the coast.
The beautiful beaches of north-eastern Sardinia are approximately 20 minutes away by car, while Olbia, with its port and Costa Smeralda International Airport, can be reached in approximately 30 minutes.
This is not a property that tries to appeal to everyone.
And that is precisely what makes it special.
It is intended for those who dream of a simpler, freer life, closer to nature. For those who would like to grow their own vegetables, produce their own energy, enjoy a large piece of land and live more closely according to the rhythm of the seasons.
Above all, this property is for someone who wants to continue a project that has already been started, completing it according to their own needs and gradually transforming it into their own home in Sardinia.
Here, you are not simply buying a finished house.
You are buying a project, a piece of land and the opportunity to complete your own vision of life in Sardinia.
If, while reading these words, you thought even for a moment, “This is exactly the place I have been looking for,” then I recommend seeing it in person.
Because some places cannot be fully explained in words.
They have to be experienced.
