On the hills of Arezzo, in a very panoramic position overlooking the countryside and the historic center of the city, renovated farmhouse for sale.

The 7,000-m² park surrounding the house houses a tennis court and many nooks and crannies in which to relax outdoors.

The origin of the building could be traced, according to some sources, to a medieval refreshment for pilgrims who chose the Arezzo route to reach the Verna Sanctuary from Assisi, following in the footsteps of St. Francis.

Basic services are available in the nearby village (5km; 10') while the historic center of Arezzo is just a 15’ drive away. From Arezzo it is then easy to take the A1 highway to Florence in just over an hour.

The elevation where the main entrance is located has western exposure with a splendid view of the sunsets that set the valley ablaze. The building retains its charm as a Tuscan stone house, but recent renovation has given this villa a unique elegance.

The house then has two porches: the one on the north side, which allows you to enjoy the outdoor spaces even in the height of summer, and the one on the southeast side (where there is a wood-burning oven) that connects the house with the large garage (100 m² – 1,076 ft²) and the cellar, obtained in a portion of the garage itself.

The property has a varied configuration: the arable land is mainly in the plain, while olive groves and forests occupy the hilly areas, creating a harmonious and characteristic landscape of the Tuscan countryside.

The location is strategic, close to Arezzo and well connected to Siena and the main centers of Tuscany. The excellent accessibility, the large agricultural area, the presence of flat and hilly lands, and the building heritage to be recovered make the property particularly interesting for those wishing to develop a broad agricultural and agritourism project.

The property is also crossed by a stream, which runs through the valley before flowing into the Ambra stream, a tributary of the Arno river, an element that further contributes to the environmental and scenic richness of the estate.
