Geographic position
Its location is convenient and well connected to the historic cities of Arezzo (18 km away), which can be reached in about 20 minutes by car, Siena (48 km) and Florence (57 km), both about three quarters of an hour away.
The nearest airports are those of Florence, 75 km away, and Perugia, 118 km away, which can be reached in an hour and an hour and a half by car, respectively.
State and finishing
The construction of the palace in its present form dates back to the early 19th century, but the oldest core dates back to the 17th century, with a one-storey extension in the early 20th century.
Completely renovated, the palazzo is in excellent condition.
Inside are precious materials such as marble of various types and hues, pietra serena and handmade terracotta.
The palazzo retains many of its fascinating historical features, including the salon and rooms on the piano nobile with frescoed ceilings, and a drain/well from the Roman era, located in the basement cellars and protected by glass.
In the garden is a well dating back to the 17th century.
The indoor pool is lined with material from 'Sassi di Assisi' (they post a picture of it on their website), with travertine on the edges, stone on the walls, handmade terracotta on the floor and mosaics in the bathroom.
External areas
One of the greatest strengths of this charming historic residence is undoubtedly its private outdoor spaces, a true rarity in historic centres.
In fact, the property includes about 450 sqm of private land, divided into a large courtyard paved with handmade terracotta tiles, which creates a pleasant panoramic terrace, and an area destined for a garden.
The courtyard, adorned by a 17th-century well and enriched by luxuriant flowerbeds and scented flowers (roses, jasmine hedges, lavender, geraniums, etc.), is perfect for al fresco dining. From here it is possible to access the swimming pool area and the garden, which offers an enchanting view of the Tuscan hills, manicured in English lawn, with high hedges delimiting its sides.
Use and potential uses
Its potential uses are multiple: it can be ideal as a private representative residence, allowing you to host relatives or friends in one of the independent flats, while still retaining your privacy. Moreover, it can also be thought of as a small business to be put to income, renting it out weekly in part or in its entirety during periods of non-use.
