Two Apartments in Characterful 1300s Property with Incredible Views

ITALY, TUSCANY, SIENA, SAN GIMIGNANO

Positioned within the heart of the UNESCO-protected historic centre of San Gimignano, the property occupies the primary upper floors of an authentic noble palazzo, witness to the city’s storied merchant past.

To step through its threshold is to retreat into a world of understated grandeur, where the rigorous geometry of the Middle Ages meets the warmth of Tuscan heritage.

The interiors are a masterclass in historical preservation, completed by approximately 120 sqm of extraordinary outdoor living spaces across a series of terraces, balconies, and two loggias. The principal terrace provides an intimate, front-row seat to San Gimignano’s iconic stone towers, and the top loggia offers a shaded sanctuary to survey the rolling tapestry of the Tuscan countryside beyond.

The residence is defined by its soaring proportions and a collection of meticulously maintained period features, including hand-carved stone fireplaces, terracotta floors, and intricate timber-beamed ceilings.

Bathed in a soft, ethereal light that filters through high windows, the living spaces flow with an easy elegance. Currently configured as two internally connected apartments, the layout offers an exceptional versatility, perfectly suited for a single private residence or as a sophisticated boutique hospitality venture.
