Buy-to-let property

Situated in a hilly position between the Valdichiana and Valdambra, in a landscape of great value and with excellent exposure, estate of 15.5 ha with rustic farmhouse and Chianti DOCG vineyard. The property is currently in use as an Agriturismo (17 beds) for weekly stays of families or groups of friends who can count on a fenced park with a 12 × 6 m swimming pool.

The property represents an interesting opportunity for those who wish to combine a stay in a residence immersed in the heart of Tuscany with a passion for viticulture. For the buyer, it is possible to make use of wineries in the area for grape processing; however, the extent of the vineyard and the quality of the production also suggest the creation of an in-house wine cellar.

EXTERIOR

The crown jewel of the property is the scenic 12.1-hectare vineyard, which is in full production and at the beginning of the regime phase of the multi-year cycle.

Plantings were made between 2018 (6.00 ha) and 2022 (6.14 ha), according to the criteria of modern quality viticulture for obtaining fine wines.

The vineyard is located at an altitude of about 500 m above sea level. The soil has ideal texture for vines with abundant skeleton that ensures excellent drainage during rainy periods. The right amount of clay allows for capillary retention of water reserves, which the roots can draw on in dry periods. The excellent exposure, spring and summer breezes and low humidity, ultimately the optimal pedoclimatic characteristics, allow constant production of excellent quality.

The ampelographic base is broad and includes the varieties Sangiovese, Canaiolo Nero, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Alicante Bouschet, Cabernet Franc and Rebo.

The planting layout is 0.80 × 2.50 m, with a density of 5,000 vines per hectare to ensure a low production load per vine.

The entire vineyard area falls under the two appellations Chianti DOCG and Valdarno di Sopra DOC. The latter is a relatively recent appellation to which important wineries in the area have adhered, distinguishing themselves by choosing the organic method in the cultivation of vines.

On the hills surrounding Sansepolcro, in a very panoramic position, hamlet for sale. The property has been entirely renovated and has a hotel license: the structure has 14 guest bedrooms, distributed in the various buildings, and large rooms for events and conferences.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS

The manor house (1,060 m² – 11,405 ft², 10 bedrooms and 12 bathrooms) is a large historic stately building, dating back to the 18th century and originally intended as a noble country residence. In the mid-19th century the structure became a farm/ranch and as such remained until the 1990s when it was purchased by the current owners who oversaw its renovation.

• Ground floor: reception, living room with fireplace, event room, several back rooms (made out of the former stables and very charming), two service bathrooms, utility room for the kitchen and garage;
• First floor: two large common living rooms and four bedrooms with private bathrooms;
• Second floor: living room and six bedrooms with private bathrooms.

To the left of the villa, a few steps from the building, is the two-story guesthouse A (120 m² – 1,291 ft², 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms). Here are two large suites with private bathrooms for guests.

On the right, on the other hand, is the owners’ house (155 m² – 1,668 ft², 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms), structured on two floors:

• Ground floor: storage rooms, cellar and small bathroom;
• First floor: large living room with kitchen, two bedrooms and bathroom.

At the back of the villa is guesthouse B (100 m² - 1,076 ft², 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms), which, similar to the other, houses two beautiful suites with private bathrooms.

Completing the property is an outbuilding (70 m² – 753 ft², 1 bathroom) that houses the water storage room with autoclave and the changing room with bathroom for the pool.

The buildings are surrounded by a well-kept garden of 5,300 m², ideal as a location for outdoor events. This is where the 14 × 7 m swimming pool with terracotta solarium is located.

This historic winery is located in the heart of the Viterbo hills, an area of great agricultural and landscape value, characterized by volcanic soils and a long winemaking tradition. The property represents an authentic and established reality, capable of combining history, territorial identity and development potential.

The estate covers about 13.0 hectares in total, of which 9.2 ha are planted with vines, conducted organically, and enjoys an intact and evocative natural setting. The vineyards benefit from particularly favorable soil and climate conditions, which allow for consistent quality production and good varietal diversification. The vineyard includes both Italian varieties such as Sangiovese (12.1 percent), Malvasia (10.1 percent), Montepulciano (6.8 percent) and Trebbiano (5.6 percent), and international grapes such as Merlot (25.6 percent), Chardonnay (15.2 percent), Sauvignon Blanc (12.7 percent), Pinot Blanc (6.1 percent) and Cabernet Sauvignon (5.8 percent), offering a wide and flexible production range.

• Lazio IGT Bianco: Malvasia 100%
• Lazio IGT Brut Spumante: Sauvignon Blanc, Malvasia
• Lazio IGT Rosso: Sangiovese, Merlot
• Lazio IGT Orange Riserva: Malvasia 100%

Part of the farm is covered with arable land (about 3.6 ha) characterized by excellent exposure and soils very suitable for planting additional vines.

From a strategic point of view, the winery offers an interesting potential for growth, both in terms of commercial development of the brand and through the strengthening of reception, tasting and wine tourism activities, today increasingly central to the enhancement of quality wineries. The combination of history, structured agricultural assets, territorial identity and still manageable size makes this winery an ideal opportunity for an investor, an industry operator or a family interested in a project with concrete development prospects.

Set atop a hill in the Val d’Orcia, in an incredibly panoramic location, hamlet with medieval castle for sale. The property (over 4,100 sqm) boasts numerous buildings that allow one to actually dive in what is for all intents and purposes a virtually unaltered medieval village. The buildings are in need of renovation but one could easily convert the complex into a luxury hotel with 37+ bedrooms.

HISTORY OF THE CASTLE

The castle is already documented in the 12th century as a property of the Salimbeni family, until it was bought by the Republic of Siena between 1250 and 1258. The keep became a valuable defensive position for Siena until the mid-16th century when Florence conquered the whole Tuscany and all the fortresses in the Sienese region lost their relevance. The hamlet became a farming estate, owned by the Piccolomini-Clementini family.

Located in the unspoiled and sought-after Niccone Valley, on the border between Umbria and Tuscany and in close proximity to the famous Reschio Estate, this extraordinary panoramic property offers absolute privacy, refined luxury and an impeccable level of achievement. Set in over 18 ha of perfectly manicured grounds, a short distance from Cortona and Lake Trasimeno, the property represents a rare opportunity to purchase an Italian estate ready to live in one of the most exclusive areas of central Italy.

Originally consisting of the ruins of an old farmhouse, the property has undergone a careful and meticulous four-year renovation, desired and overseen by the current owner in collaboration with local craftsmen, stonemasons, artisans and artists.

Materials were carefully selected from salvaged warehouses, and nothing was left to chance in the creation of a timeless residence, where traditional Umbrian architecture blends with contemporary elegance of the highest standard. All buildings feature double-glazed windows and doors and underfloor heating, ensuring high levels of comfort and energy efficiency.

The estate is managed year-round by dedicated staff, ensuring impeccable maintenance in every season. The sale includes the farm machinery and most of the outdoor furniture, allowing for an easy and immediate transfer of ownership.

This restored hamlet is located in the Chianti hills, in an outstanding and very panoramic position in the heart of the Tuscan countryside. Finely restored by the current owners, the property is a real gem that embodies all the typical characteristics of Tuscan rustic buildings. Most of the buildings have already been restored and include, at the moment, 15 beautiful bedrooms and elegant living areas. By completing the renovation of the other farmhouses one could reach a grand total of 30 bedrooms (or even more if smaller in size). The property’s 10.2 hectares of land are home to a beautiful Italiangarden and olive grove.

A notable historical fact about the property is that the Italian astronomer and philosopher Galileo Galilei spent some time in the villa, and the bedroom where he stayed still bears his name as a homage. He was, in fact, a renowned wine enthusiast and Chianti lover, to the point that at the end of his life, when confined in his villa in Arcetri, he took over winemaking as a hobby.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS

The property is made up of an old villa and a dependance, which are connected by a corridor.

The villa, which was converted into a hotel at the beginning of the Sixties, hosted famous artists and personalities such as Gianni Agnelli, the poets Giuseppe Ungaretti and Pablo Neruda, as well as the actresses Audrey Hepburn and Ingrid Bergman. In the 1970’s the villa and the dependance were united and the number of bedrooms increased. 

The villa has eight bedrooms, while the dependance includes seven bedrooms. Moreover, the hotel has a comfortable bar area, a very bright reading room, a living area composed of a coffee bar and a relaxation room, and a meeting room.

Perched on the edge of a medieval town close to Gaiole, this majestic castle is a historical gem in the heart of the Chianti Classico region. The magnificent estate, constructed entirely of white stone in the early 11th century, is steeped in history and tradition. It is believed to have been owned by the noble Ricasoli family from around 1100 AD, who used it as a strategic fortification during the tumultuous wars of the late Middle Ages. Today, the hamlet stands as one of the most captivating and well-preserved examples of a fortified medieval village.

While it requires some modernization and improvement work, the castle’s historical charm and prime location make it an exceptional prospect for anyone seeking to own a piece of Italian history and offers a unique opportunity to savor the timeless beauty of the Chianti region, serving as an oasis of tranquility in a magical, ancient atmosphere.
