Casentino

In the heart of Casentino, on the slopes overlooking the villages of Marcena and Partina, 500-hectare estate for sale, particularly interesting due to its size and notable naturalistic value. The estate forms a single landholding with a predominantly mountainous and hilly character. The property extends from about 480 m of altitude, near the Archiano stream, up to 1,208 m at the highest point, offering a remarkable variety of environments, exposures, and landscapes.

About 470 hectares fall within the municipality of Bibbiena and about 30 hectares within Chiusi della Verna. A portion of about 190 hectares is included in the Casentinesi Forests, Monte Falterona and Campigna National Park, in a naturalistic context of incredible scenic interest.

The main component of the property consists of woods, with a prevalence of oak-type formations, particularly Turkey oak, and significant beech forest areas.

The woods are characterized by various forms of management and treatment, including coppice, high forest, and woods in transition to high forest, as well as areas of old hornbeam coppice. Forest management has been the subject of a previous ten-year plan aimed at sustainable management of the forest heritage.

Within the portion falling inside the National Park, beech woods prevail, present both as high forest and as coppices in conversion and hornbeam coppices, the latter being a historical form of forest management in the Tuscan Apennines.

In the heart of the Casentino, in a beautiful and largely unspoiled landscape between the hills and mountains of eastern Tuscany, vast agricultural estate of approximately 378 hectares with historic farmhouses, a former manorial villa, Agriturismo, livestock center, cheese dairy, artificial lake and extensive woodland for sale. The estate extends across the countryside around Castel Focognano, with a smaller portion near Pieve a Socana, and combines cultivated land, pasture, olive groves and extensive woodland with a substantial collection of rural buildings.

The property is particularly interesting for those looking for a large private estate, an agricultural investment or a hospitality project, thanks to the presence of an existing agritourism complex with swimming pool, numerous historic farmhouses to restore, and a modern livestock and dairy facility.

The property is currently organized around a mixed agricultural, forestry and livestock activity, with the livestock operation historically representing the main productive activity. The average livestock presence is approximately 800 breeding sheep, 200 breeding goats and 10 equines, with the production of sheep and goat milk, lambs and kids, as well as cheese and ricotta. The milk is processed directly within the estate's own dairy facility.

The animals, agricultural machinery and stock are not included in the sale.

On the hills of Casentino, at about 500 meters altitude and a very quiet and reserved position, 211-hectare estate with Agriturismo and livestock for sale. The activity is very successful in the tourist accommodation circuit (by 2025 there were 25 weeks occupied annually) with a clientele largely made up of European and American guests. The structure is also used for weddings and could be expanded to corporate meetings. There is still significant development potential with the renovation and reactivation of the horse stables and a ruin located in a panoramic position.

The Agriturismo (1,500 m² – 16,140 ft², 20 bedrooms and 23 bathrooms) is a large stone building with a typical Tuscan style, spread over three above-ground floors. The common areas include the reception, a restaurant with a professional kitchen, relaxation rooms for guests, and a wellness center (hot tub, Turkish bath, sauna, and fitness area). The accommodation part includes eleven bedrooms with private bathrooms and six independent apartments:

• Apt. N°1: living room with kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom;
• Apt. N°2: living room with kitchen, reading room, two bedrooms, and three bathrooms;
• Apt. N°3: living room with kitchenette, two bedrooms, and two bathrooms;
• Apt. N°4: living room with kitchenette, two bedrooms, and one bathroom;
• Apt. N°5: living room, bedroom, and bathroom;
• Apt. N°6: studio with bathroom.

The farmhouse is surrounded by 8,500 m² of well-kept garden organized into two main sections. At the top, there is a real garden with shady tall trees, a canopy serving as an outdoor extension for the restaurant, and a convenient parking area for guests. The lower terrace features a 15 × 8 m swimming pool and an outdoor playground for children.

The property also includes various agricultural buildings (about 2,700 m² – 29,052 ft²) which house a large cattle barn and a horse stable (currently not in use) and a ruined farmhouse (885 m² – 9,523 ft²). The livestock includes 10 lactating cows and 3 donkeys, very interesting from an educational point of view for guided tours with guests.

Water supply is ensured by the municipal aqueduct, but the property also has two internal springs and the possibility to draw water from a nearby stream. For electricity, there is a 65-kW photovoltaic system that covers most of the property’s energy needs, in addition to supplying current to the grid for profit. The possibility of exploiting the roofs of the farm buildings for the installation of additional panels is currently under consideration.

In the heart of Casentino, at the foot of the Casentino Forests that guard the ancient Hermitage of Camaldoli, this property preserves a history deeply linked to the secular presence of the Camaldolese Monks, who for centuries played a key role in the religious, economic, and agricultural life of this territory.

The history of the property is part of the broader network of lands, farms, and agricultural structures that, over the centuries, belonged to the monastic community founded by St. Romuald at the beginning of the 11th century. The Camaldolese system developed not only around the Hermitage and the Monastery but also included an extensive rural estate to support the community's life and organize the agricultural activities of the area.

The origin of the estate is intertwined with this ancient organization. The estate's locations were originally owned by the monks and served a significant function along the old route of Casentino: it was a postal station for horse changes, located along the carriage road that crossed the countryside following the course of the Archiano river.

A crossing and connection point, therefore, between the agricultural world of the valley and the monastic one of the mountains, where the productive vocation and hospitality were already deeply connected.

Today, this ancient vocation lives on through the farm and agritourism activities, in a landscape of extraordinary authenticity where nature, agriculture, hospitality, and history still coexist harmoniously.

Nicht weit von Pratovecchio, im Herzen des Casentino, steht ein renoviertes Bauernhaus zum Verkauf. Das Gebäude (380 m², 4 Schlafzimmer und 3 Bäder) ist ein rustikales Haus auf drei versetzten Etagen mit zwei Zugängen:

• Kellergeschoss: Weinkeller, Lagerräume, zwei Schlafzimmer, Veranda und Bad;
• Erdgeschoss: Eingangsbereich, Esszimmer mit Küche, zwei Wohnzimmer, ein Schlafzimmer und ein Bad;
• Erste Etage: Schlafzimmer mit Bad und Ankleideraum.

Das Nebengebäude (48 m², 1 Schlafzimmer und 1 Bad) ist ein charmantes Gebäude neben dem Bauernhaus , ideal für Gäste, bestehend aus Wohn-/Esszimmer mit Küche, Schlafzimmer und Bad.

Das Haus ist von einem 7.800 m² großen Garten umgeben, durchsetzt mit Obstbäumen und einem praktischen Gemüsegarten für den Eigenanbau.

Country house of ancient origin, with agricultural outbuildings to be renovated, about 2.6 hectares of agricultural land and an area with building potential for residential use for sale. An interesting combination that offers multiple and diversified development possibilities.

This property is located in an area immediately close to the historic center of Bibbiena, in Casentino, where all necessary services are available. Of particular interest also from a historical-landscape perspective, the toponym has been documented in the ancient cartography of Tuscany since 1710, where it appears with the name “Podere del Apparita”. 

The name itself recalls one of the most distinctive features of the place: the elevated and strategic position, from which a wide view of the surrounding territory and the valley can be enjoyed. In the Tuscan tradition, the term “apparita” indeed identifies a place from which, traversing the territory, a sudden wide view of the landscape opens up.

The estate is distinguished for its panoramic position, direct relationship with the historic center of Bibbiena, the presence of historic agricultural terraces, and building potential.

In den ersten Hügeln des Casentino, unweit von Bibbiena, steht ein renoviertes rustikales Bauernhaus mit natürlicher Quelle und Zugang zu einem Bach zum Verkauf. Dieses Bauernhaus genießt eine abgeschiedene Lage in der Nähe eines kleinen Weilers, eingebettet in eine Landschaft aus Wäldern, Wiesen und Wasserläufen. Die Nähe zum Bach verleiht dem Anwesen eine Atmosphäre seltener Ruhe, untermalt vom Rauschen des Wassers und den Düften der Ufervegetation. Die Umgebung bietet eine perfekte Balance zwischen Natur, Geschichte und Spiritualität: Der Nationalpark „Foreste Casentinesi“, der Wallfahrtsort La Verna, die Einsiedelei von Camaldoli und die malerischen mittelalterlichen Dörfer des Casentino machen diese Gegend zu einer der authentischsten und faszinierendsten der Toskana.

Das Anwesen wird von einem Bach mit klarem Wasser umspült – ein natürliches Element, das im Sommer für Erfrischung sorgt und eine angenehme Geräuschkulisse schafft, wodurch die Umgebung besonders entspannend und stimmungsvoll wirkt.

At the gates of Casentino, between Subbiano and Bibbiena in a very quiet position, organic estate with a farmhouse to be renovated for sale. The property covers about 14.4 hectares on a hilly position with excellent south exposure that ensures perfect land for various crops. 

The farm operates with certified organic methods and is dedicated to cultivating various products. First, we find a vineyard (1.7 ha) of Cabernet Sauvignon, Grechetto, Sangiovese, and Malvasia varieties: the grapes produced are then sold to local producers for winemaking. Next are an olive grove (about 1.0 ha in total distributed in various points of the company), a hazelnut grove (2,800 m²), and a bamboo grove (4,900 m²) used for the production of solid combustible. The arable land (about 3.4 ha) is cultivated with saffron, iris, and forage for animals. The property’s borders are marked by a strip of mixed woodland (about 6.9 ha).

A stream flows through the property, not far from the house, and is freely and easily accessible.

The company is currently operational in terms of agricultural production but is not employed in a hospitality function: the renovation of the farmhouse would offer several rooms (all of generous size and potentially with private bathroom), making the property very suitable for tourist-hospitality development, not to mention the variety of crops carried out in the company that would offer a wide selection of dishes using organic products truly zero kilometers.

On the foothills of Casentino, not far from Arezzo and Subbiano, a 17th-century farmhouse with guesthouse and outbuildings for sale. The property (468 m²), tastefully and carefully restored by the current owner, retains all original features and currently houses a total of 5 bedrooms with large and elegant living areas. The 40.5 hectares surrounding the buildings are covered with woods and olive trees (7.3 ha).

The property, as a whole, lends itself very well to multiple uses.

A large family that was looking for a home in which to live in full contact with nature but at the same time not far from services would find the ideal place here. Alternatively, the country house could be converted into a B&B and/or vacation home with potential conversion of the old stables into a small wellness center for the guests. Finally, the estate could be managed in the form of an Agriturismo if the new owners wanted to try their hand at agricultural activities, which could include olive production alone, new organic crops and even animal breeding.
