Tuscany - Arezzo - Civitella in Val di Chiana
Interiors: 1,624 sqm
Bedrooms: 20
Bathrooms: 20
Exteriors: 96.47 ha
Olive grove: 4.35 ha
In the heart of Val di Chiana, near the ancient village of Civitella in Val di Chiana, is this interesting organic farm that extends over a total area of more than 96 hectares. 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.
For characteristics and terrain conformation, the property could also lend itself to the development of an activity related to horse breeding and management, which should be evaluated in relation to the development of the Agriturismo activity.
The arable land and olive groves are managed according to organic farming methods, with the relevant certifications and recognition of the contributions provided by agri-environmental measures.
- The arable land, covering a total area of about 66.3 hectares, is intended for crop rotation, including cereals, legumes, and oilseeds, according to an agronomic management aimed at maintaining soil fertility and crop sustainability.
- The olive grove, partially terraced, extends over about 4.3 hectares where about 500 trees are present. The annual production is about 35 quintals of olives, corresponding to about 600 liters of extra virgin olive oil. The cultivated varieties are those of the Tuscan tradition, mainly Moraiolo and Frantoio.
- The woods (25.3 ha), easily manageable, represent an important component of the company’s heritage and contribute to biodiversity and the balance of the agricultural ecosystem.
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.

ORGANIC FARM WITH RENOVATION PROJECT FOR SALE IN TUSCANY
Tuscany - Arezzo - Subbiano
Interiors: 605 sqm
Bedrooms: 7
Bathrooms: 10
Exteriors: 14.39 ha
Vineyards: 1.68 ha
Olive grove: 1.03 ha
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.
