Luxury home and estate in Tuscany

Located in the Sienese countryside, this 45.9-hectare estate is close to the famous Abbey of San Galgano, known for the legendary sword in the stone. The property includes a restored 18th-century country home (former hunting lodge) with 350 square metres of living space, featuring 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. A 10 × 3-metre swimming pool adds to the estate’s amenities.

Access is easy via a well-maintained 2.5 km unpaved road, offering privacy while remaining convenient for visiting popular destinations such as Siena, Follonica, Montalcino, San Gimignano, Pienza, Florence, and Montepulciano. Notable landmarks in the area include Belagaio Castle (10 km), the prehistoric La Pietra grotto (20 km), the Abbey of San Galgano (21 km), and the Petriolo thermal springs (37 km).

Originally built as a hunting lodge, the country home blends traditional Tuscan character with modern comforts, including an alarm system, video surveillance, heating, LED lighting, and a built-in stereo system. Dark wood shutters conceal fixtures, while handcrafted Tuscan terracotta flooring covers the ground level, and natural oak planks are used on the upper floor.

The house is arranged over two floors:

  • Ground floor: Garage/technical room (housing the boiler, pool equipment, water pump, and control panels), a fully equipped kitchen with an outdoor oven, wine cellar, large bathroom with shower, laundry room, pool room with a bar corner, and a library/painting room with a piano and double bed.
  • First floor: A spacious living room with an original fireplace (with potential for a second kitchen), two double bedrooms, a master bedroom (with space for an en-suite bathroom), and two bathrooms with showers.

Behind the main house, the 250 sqm ruin has been carefully preserved, forming a courtyard-like area with a converted well that serves as a campfire. The volume of this former structure can be utilised to build another farmhouse on the property.

The estate includes approximately 4,500 sqm of landscaped garden, along with 45.4 hectares of land divided into 28.4 hectares of arable land and 17 hectares of woodland. The property also features a natural truffle ground, two natural springs, and over 100 fruit tree species recognized by the province of Siena.

A stream borders the estate, which is situated near the Canaloni del Farma. The surrounding area remains largely untouched and is positioned between two protected nature reserves (Val di Farma and Val di Merse). The land is home to abundant wildlife, including wild boar, roe deer, fallow deer, badger, porcupine, pheasant, and hare.

This country home in Tuscany offers a unique combination of history, privacy, and natural beauty, with the potential for further development.
