Description
Wonderful stone farmhouse of 550 square meters with swimming pool, immersed in its private garden of about one hectare set in one of the greenest and most fascinating postcard valleys of the Tuscan countryside. The magical atmosphere that envelops is characterized in autumn by warm splashes of colour, in spring, space for a luxuriant nature with intense perfumes. The farm is located on a small promontory that allows a particularly fascinating and beautiful 360 degree view.
Location
The property is a few kilometres from the historic city of Volterra, whose origins, first Etruscan and then Roman, are still visible in a beautiful archaeological site and in the collections of the Guarnacci museum. Another easily reachable center is the city of San Gimignano known above all for the two towers, symbols of a still tangible history in the unchanged medieval center, also famous for its cuisine and wine, the typical Vernaccia di San Gimignano. About an hour drive away there are the cities of Siena, Florence and Pisa, priceless cradles of Italian art and culture. Always in a short time it is possible to reach the seaside resorts of the Tyrrhenian coast, among the most important are Livorno and Viareggio, the pearl of Versilia.
Description
You reach the old farmhouse of 550 sqm expertly restored along a secondary road of about 4 kilometres well beaten and maintained that offers scenarios of indescribable beauty. The gaze is lost in the rolling hills, olive trees, cypresses, we are immersed in the most typical Tuscan countryside. The two independent entrances, both driveways, open the doors to the lovingly preserved and completely fenced property. The entire structure has been redesigned to accommodate seven comfortable apartments each with its own private entrance and outdoor space.
On the ground floor there are five apartments, two of which are arranged on two levels consisting of two or one double bedroom, the living area with kitchenette or the semi-habitable kitchen. On the first floor connected to the top attic there are two apartments, one with a double bedroom and the other with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The internal distribution can easily be varied, combining several apartments to create larger and more spacious ones.
State and finishes
The reconstruction was done in a careful and conservative way; all the stones used are native and the visual as well as structural result is truly surprisingly beautiful. The windows are embellished with iron inserts which, in addition to giving greater security, create plays of depth that give harmony to the entire farmhouse. The terracotta ceilings interspersed with warm wooden beams, the floors with a classic reddish colour make the rooms very welcoming and comfortable.
Outdoor spaces
The farmhouse is immersed in one hectare of completely fenced land where fruit trees and flowers with an intense colour and aroma have been widely planted. Each apartment has its own private and exclusive space furnished with an illuminated terrace, an oven and a cozy table and chairs. Large panoramic swimming pool and large outdoor chilling area for use by the whole farmhouse. Ample parking in the large covered space for cars.
Potential use
The farm is already well underway and inserted in the main international tourist circuits but it can also be thought of as a private residence for a family who wants to enjoy holiday periods immersed in the peace of the wonderful and unique Tuscan countryside.
