This distinguished property has a rich history, originally belonging to a prominent Montepulciano family and consisting of the manor house along with several farm buildings that now form the Agriturismo. The villa, constructed in 1760, stands as a timeless example of Leopoldina architecture, meticulously crafted from local stone and brick during the era of the grand land reclamation directive issued by Grand Duke Leopold II of Tuscany.
In 2000, the current owners acquired the entire property, which, at the time, was little more than ruins, lacking roofs and plagued by evident structural issues. Over the course of five years, starting in 2004, a comprehensive restoration effort was undertaken, preserving the original charm of the structures while employing reclaimed stones, bricks, and tiles. Terracotta tiles, handcrafted by artisans from Orvieto, were chosen for the flooring, meticulously restoring the property to its former glory.
The property, encompassing 18 hectares (44.5 acres) in the enchanting Valdichiana hills spanning the provinces of Arezzo and Siena, is enveloped by a lush 10,000-square-metre park, bordered by hedges, stone walls, and paved driveways. Two inviting swimming pools grace the property, with a 12 × 6 metre pool exclusively designated for the villa, while a larger 24 × 6 metre pool is shared by the guests residing in the Agriturismo apartments, conveniently positioned on a stone-paved terrace adjacent to the building.
The remaining property area comprises 8.4 hectares of arable land, suitable for diverse agricultural endeavours, along with 8 hectares of woods, and a small olive grove spanning just over 6,000 square metres, featuring 50 olive trees, yielding oil for private use.
