Historical Property for Sale in Tuscany near Poggibonsi and San Gimignano
This historical property for sale in Tuscany is a country estate comprising a villa, farmhouse, and agricultural building, set on 10.4 hectares of land near Poggibonsi, in the Val d’Elsa area of the Province of Siena. The estate is set in a hilly panoramic position with good sun exposure, around 1 km from local services and within easy reach of San Gimignano, Siena, Chianti and Florence.
The buildings total approximately 1,225 square metres (13,182 square feet) and require restoration. They are recognised as having historic and architectural value, so any renovation should be carried out as a conservative recovery project that respects the original rural Tuscan character. Existing details include stone and brick walls, terracotta and graniglia floors, wooden beams, fireplaces, a porch and a panoramic terrace.
The main villa measures approximately 460 square metres, or 4,950 square feet, and is arranged over two floors. It currently includes a large ground-floor storage area and two apartments. One apartment has an entrance, a living room with a kitchen, two bedrooms, and one bathroom. The second apartment has a kitchen with an external loggia, a dining room, a living room with a terrace, four bedrooms, and two bathrooms.
The farmhouse measures approximately 676 square metres, or 7,274 square feet, and is a large stone-and-brick rural building over three floors. It needs full renovation and is partly in ruin. The ground floor includes large former storage and stable areas that may offer scope for further residential or hospitality use, subject to permissions. The upper areas are divided into three large apartments, with a total of nine bedrooms and five bathrooms.
An agricultural warehouse of approximately 89 square metres (958 square feet) completes the buildings and could be used as a storage area or a garage for several cars. In total, the property currently has 48 rooms, 15 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms across the main buildings.
The land measures approximately 10.4 hectares, or 25.7 acres. Around the buildings is a garden area of approximately 7,645 square metres that needs recovery. A swimming pool may be possible, subject to planning approval. Most of the remaining land is arable, approximately 9.5 hectares, and may be suitable for vines, olive trees or other traditional Tuscan crops.
This Tuscan country estate may suit a buyer looking for a substantial private residence, a multi-unit family estate, a restoration project, or a hospitality property such as a relais, a boutique accommodation business, or a high-end agriturismo. The size, location and layout offer several possible uses, subject to planning, technical checks and restoration costs.
