Description
Perfectly restored ancient farmhouse from 1550, this property enjoys a splendid view of the surrounding landscape, has two outbuildings, a salt water swimming pool and a large park, shelter for horses and fenced fields dedicated to horse riding, just 10 minutes from Siena.
Immersed in the typical Sienese countryside this property is divided into 4 living spaces and consists of a main villa and two annexes. The villa is split into a self contained two bedroom apartment, a study and an open plan living and dining area. The other part of the villa, now dedicated to guests, has a restaurant/breakfast room, a professional kitchen as well as various utility rooms, two large halls, one of which with a billiard table and five bedrooms upstairs. . The first outbuilding, more recently built, is divided into two independent apartments each with its own external space and independent entrance. There is also a second outbuilding of about 95 m2 now used as a warehouse, with a large terrace with a splendid view over the valleys.
The renovation has preserved the ancient flavor and appearance of a typical Tuscan farmhouse: the vaulted loggia from the 1500s where you can relax, the exposed stone facades, the wooden beams and the large fireplaces present in many common areas and also in the private rooms. The restoration works have maintained the authenticity of the time by adding contemporary comfort thanks to the adoption of modern technologies used to reduce management costs and to be more efficient overall from an energy point of view.
The property is in fact equipped with photovoltaic panels, an automatic irrigation system that draws water from the nearby lake of the property, phytodepuration systems for the recovery of gray water and rainwater collection, a video surveillance system and a private satellite connection with total wifi coverage. The renovation works, in 2021, also included the consolidation of all the load-bearing walls and floors, thermal insulation and the renovation of the roof following the anti-seismic legislation.
The property is surrounded by a well-kept garden, a one hectare of vineyard with Valdarbia grapes and 2 hectares of land where we also find fenced areas dedicated to horse riding and a small olive grove. The property is currently a consolidated accommodation facility and has a total of 12 bedrooms and 14 bathrooms plus a bathroom that serves the swimming pool.
