Farmhouse Arezzo

In the hills between Valdambra and Valdichiana, in a very panoramic position on top of a hill, farm with renovated farmhouse for sale. The property has recently been renovated for use as an agritourism with 8 guest bedrooms and a beautiful panoramic swimming pool. The 12.0 hectares of land surrounding the building include vineyard and olive grove.

The property for its peculiar characteristics is an excellent solution for those who want a property simply for residential purposes, living or as a holiday home, being the extent of the land contained but sufficient to fully enjoy the property. At the same time, the presence of agricultural land accompanying the buildings would allow those who wish to do so to maintain the setting of a farm with attached Agriturismo activity with the resulting tax benefits and income opportunities.

EXTERIOR

In a single body all around the buildings, the land slopes gently from the top of the hill where the buildings are located towards the valley. In fact, the property with its extension of about 12.0 hectares (of which 5.0 ha fenced) includes the hill in its entirety, in a landscape that goes from the flowery park around the villa to the olive groves and vineyards typical of the area.

Agriculturally, the property can count on a small vineyard (3,000 m²), an olivegrove (1.3 ha), lavender fields (7,200 m²), fruit trees (about 2,000 m²) and extensions of arable land where vegetables (also in greenhouses) and hazelnuts (2,000 m²) are grown. The rest of the property is devoted to woods that provide privacy and places for walking and hiking.

On the hills between Tuscany and Umbria, just 3 km from Cortona, rustic farmhouse with garden. The building (215 m²) has been partially renovated and houses on the first floor a lovely rural dwelling with typical elements. There are currently 2 bedrooms in the building, but by renovating the second unit on the first floor there could be a total of 4. Around the farmhouse lies the 15,700-sqm garden on which a swimming pool could also be built.

The services are all available in the medieval town of Cortona (10’ drive) but the location of the property is very convenient for reaching most of the art cities of Tuscany (including Arezzo, Montepulciano, Pienza, Montalcino, Siena and Florence). Perugia airport in Umbria is less than an hour's drive from the farmhouse.

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.
