Historic Home for Sale in Sansepolcro Tuscany | Restored 16th-Century Palazzo

This historic home for sale is located in the medieval town centre of Sansepolcro, in the province of Arezzo, Tuscany. The property is a fully restored 16th-century palazzo, positioned along one of the side streets off Via XX Settembre, the town’s main thoroughfare. Its central location makes daily services, shops, restaurants, and cafés easily accessible on foot, making it suitable both as a private residence and as a long-term investment property in Tuscany.

The palazzo offers approximately 245 square metres (2,636 sq ft) of internal space arranged over multiple floors, with 10 rooms, 3 bedrooms, and 3 bathrooms. The restoration respected the original Renaissance structure, uncovering and preserving previously concealed historic architectural elements. The interiors include original terracotta floors, exposed wooden beams, vaulted and coffered ceilings, stone and brick walls, arched openings, and period stone fireplaces.

The main entrance opens into a large atrium characterised by columns and arched ceilings, typical of Renaissance town residences. This space functions as both an entrance hall and a semi-open internal courtyard, partly open to the upper levels, and suitable for use as a covered outdoor area, study, or additional living space. From here, a staircase leads down to the basement level, where the original cellars are located.

A stone staircase connects the upper floors. The main living level includes a spacious reception room with a large fireplace and coffered ceiling, currently used as a living area. Adjacent rooms include a bright kitchen overlooking the internal courtyard, an additional sitting room with a wood-burning stove, and a service bathroom.

The sleeping accommodation is arranged across the upper floors. The main bedroom level includes two bedrooms and a large bathroom with a shower, bathtub, and fireplace. The top floor provides a third bedroom, an additional bathroom, and a dedicated laundry area.

The property is connected to mains electricity, mains water, natural gas, telephone line, and internet. Heating is provided by radiators, and the energy rating is F (EPgl nren 339.23 kWh/m²/year). There is no garden or swimming pool, but the property benefits from a private internal courtyard of approximately 14 square metres (151 sq ft).

Sansepolcro is a well-established historic town offering full infrastructure, including schools from kindergarten to high school, supermarkets, banks, pharmacies, and healthcare facilities. The hospital is located just outside the town and can be reached in under five minutes by car. The location also provides convenient access to Anghiari, Arezzo, Cortona, Perugia, Assisi, Siena, Florence, and Rome, as well as international airports in Perugia, Florence, Bologna, Pisa, and Rome.
