Italian Land for Sale in Tuscany – 112 Hectares with Fixer Upper Hamlet

Located in the Casentino mountains of Tuscany, this extensive estate offers 112.2 hectares (277.2 acres) of land in Italy for sale, along with a rural hamlet in need of complete restoration. The property is set in a quiet, panoramic location near Talla, with direct views toward Mount Penna and the La Verna sanctuary. The buildings, covering over 2,200 sqm, stand on a rocky outcrop between two streams and include the remains of a historic settlement with origins dating back to the 7th century. The oldest structure on site is a small church with apparent Byzantine architectural influence, once part of a key route connecting Ravenna and Rome.

Over the centuries, the site developed into a fortified hamlet likely intended to defend the road between Casentino and Valdarno. The layout of the buildings—sheltered from northern winds—shows practical consideration for the local climate. Although the hamlet is now uninhabited, it remained occupied into the 1970s, with a community of around sixty people. A reliable spring at the upper end of the property ensures a consistent supply of water year-round.

The land is composed of 80 hectares of forest (including chestnut groves), 19.8 hectares of arable land, and 11.7 hectares of pasture, providing a wide range of agricultural or eco-tourism development possibilities. The property is accessible via a paved road, with only the final section being unpaved and for private use. Arezzo and the A1 Valdarno highway exit are approximately 20 minutes away, and Florence and Siena can be reached in under an hour. This fixer upper presents a rare opportunity for buyers seeking Italian land for sale in Tuscany with historic value and development potential.
