In a stunning panoramic position, on a hill with a 360 degree view, this beautiful stone property has been totally restored with care, attention and taste, and in traditional Tuscan farmhouse style, using very high standard materials.
The property was built in the 18th century as a rural hamlet on the ancient Via Francigena pilgrim route. It is said that in the 16th century, Michelangelo passed several nights here on a trip to Rome, fascinated by the beauty of the location.
The complex consists of:
– A main farmhouse divided into 6 stunning apartments, 2 of which remain for sale. This one, and another, at €495,000 (see link below)
– A detached barn, sold
– A detached former brick furnace, not for sale
Around the property there are about 1.5 hectares of gardens and the stunning shared swimming pool which enjoys spectacular views of the world famous medieval town of San Gimignano and the surrounding countryside.
This apartment consists of an entrance hall, a spacious living room, a kitchen, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a private garden
This apartment is the largest and most prestigious in the complex and has an independent ground floor entrance with stairs leading up to the first room, a study/bedroom on the mezzanine floor, followed by the large living room with skilfully restored old fireplace, then the kitchen, double bedroom, dressing room and bathroom and, via another vestibule, the second double bedroom with en suite bathroom and, finally, another bedroom which is reached via an internal staircase with gallery mezzanine. The total area is 220 sqm.
The apartment can be reached via the building’s walkway directly from the private garden (approx 200 sqm), located in front of the living area with its view over San Gimignano, from which a series of steps leads to the shared swimming pool in the lower outdoor level.
The apartment is fully furnished and renovated, retaining all the original details such as traditional exposed beam brick ceilings and antique terracotta brick floors.
The light coloured furniture and exposed wood make the interior warm and welcoming, a mix of shabby chic and rustic. The large, airy living room overlooks the garden, giving a sensation of peace and nature through its panoramic windows.
The price includes the furniture.
