Val d’Orcia Townhouse for Sale.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Val d’Orcia is known for its beautiful landscapes and enchanting hill top towns and villages, all of which are easily accessible from the property.

Rich in history and charm, the property was built in 1000 AD, became a nunnery in 1400 and was then converted into the courthouse. Today it offers 280 sqm of living space on 4 storeys with 5 bedrooms, a garage and a wonderful roof terrace in a small tower at the top of the house with superb views over the roof tops and the countryside.

The careful renovation has maintained and restored the ancient atmosphere of the house, uncovering an ancient well where they found decorated ceramic vessels, bronze coins and other artefacts. The cellar, with its original terracotta tiles, is still used for the storage of wines. In the living room there is a column used to support the holy pilgrim statue carved in 1000 AD.
