Tobacco Warehouse
property details
for a Hub House co-operative coliving project

Area ✧ very pleasant but lacking variety
✦ main roof already renovated but otherwise a barren shall with all fitout required
✦ gorgeous internal arches although possibly difficult to plan around
✦ can rebuild the ruined 'winter garden' (needs a new roof, could be a terrace) for extra 160m2 (maybe double if two floors is allowed)
✦ owner/neigbour will sell half their adjoining garden for around 1300m2 as there is almost none adjoining the property, however there is a 990m2 vegetable plot on opposite side of road
✦ ground floor of 480m2 for common spaces, plus dorm; giving only a 0.7 common space ratio to bedrooms
✦ 1st floor of 340m2 for 7 bedrooms (3 ensuite, 4 shared) and attic of 220m2 for 7 bedrooms (3 ensuite, 4 shared) although potentially tricky to fit in
✦ share price may be reasonable around €2.2k/mo
✦ attic rooms would all have one small window, but 2 large rooms would need skylights
✦ FFTC, so should get min 50Mbps down, not implausible a commercial fibre run would be possible from the cabinet; plus WiMAX coverage for extra upstream http://www.retewifi.it
✦ natural lake means mosquitoes are apparently an issue, but is some distance away
✦ there are only two notable towns, one small and close bus or bike, the other Perugia is a bit far
✦ last bus back from Perugia 7pmom Castiglion 5pm
✦ Perugia airport has added year round flights to Stansted, Malta and Catania, others seasonal, however Rome and Florence are reasonable by train
✦ station is Chiusi-chianciano, with twice daily direct high-speed train (8am from north/to south, 9pm from south/to north)
✦ slightly better sunshine than Montecastelli; winter months are unappealing and fairly overcast but rainfall is low under 50mm, and whilst the climate appears to drop a bit low, shoulder season highs are over 20°
