Farmhouse to be restored

On the hills of Tuscany, in the heart of the Brunello di Montalcino production area, small winery for sale. The property consists of two estates that include buildings (farmhouse and cellars) and vineyards (about 3.5 ha), respectively. The location of the property is very convenient, close to Montalcino and the best-known centers of the Val d’Orcia, and has no other houses nearby, which ensures privacy and confidentiality even in case you want to start a receptive activity.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS

The farmhouse (686 m² – 7,381 ft², 8 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms) is a rustic building in typical Tuscan style with well-preserved original finishes. In one corner of the ground floor are the old rustic cellars, easily usable for production in conjunction with the newer cellar, while the rest of the building houses two apartments:

• Apt. A (384 m²): entrance hall, living room, dining room, kitchen, six bedrooms and six bathrooms;
• Apt. B (82 m²): living room with kitchen, two bedrooms and bathroom.

The building is in excellent structural condition and needs only some interior modernization and finishing work.

Adjacent to the farmhouse, built partially underground and thus naturally climate-controlled, is the aging cellar (320 m² – 3,443 ft²) consisting of two separate rooms and a convenient shed for sheltering equipment.

The winemaking cellar (311 m² – 3,346 ft², 1 bathroom) is a large L-shaped building, very suitable for processing grapes due to spacious rooms with no structural elements in between. The building needs modernization and renovation but is in excellent structural condition.

On the hills of Pontassieve, less than an hour from Florence and in a panoramic position, agriculturalestate with three farm complexes for sale. The property is in need of major renovation and enhancement works but offers great development possibilities, especially from a tourist-receptive point of view thanks to the presence of several buildings with various independent housing units.

PODERE “BELLAVISTA”

The manor house (1,100 m² – 11,836 ft², 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms) is a large, stately building, structured on three floors and entirely in need of renovation:

• Ground floor: wine cellar, various halls and reception rooms, kitchen and service bathroom;
• First floor: entrance hall, two kitchens, dining room, four bedrooms and two bathrooms;
• Second floor: practicable and partially habitable attics.

Next to the villa is a farmhouse (255 m² – 2,744 ft², 4 bedrooms and 1 bathroom), the old farmer’s dwelling, which also needs to be entirely renovated:

• Ground floor: farm storehouses, kitchen and sitting room;
• First floor: four bedrooms and bathroom.

The last building is a second farmhouse (263 m² – 2,830 ft², 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms), former gardener's residence, to be renovated. On the ground floor are some storage rooms, while the rest of the building is divided into two apartments:

• Apt. A: large living room with kitchen, three bedrooms and bathroom;
• Apt. B: living room with kitchen, bedroom and bathroom.

The buildings are surrounded by a garden of about 2,800 m², dotted with ancient trees (holm oaks), to be restored and enhanced.

In a very panoramic and quiet location in the Casentino mountains, not far from Talla, rural hamlet to be restored with 112.2 hectares of land for sale. The buildings are located on a rocky outcrop at the confluence of two streams, and the original nucleus of the settlement most likely dates back to the 7th century, when the small church was built: the area was part of the Byzantine possessions, a last offshoot of the so-called “Byzantine corridor” that connected Ravenna to Rome, and the Greek influence on the church is evident. The road leading up to the property is part of that connecting artery that once united the Cassia Vetus (nowadays the Setteponti Road) and the Flaminia Minor (then called Via Romea once it enters Emilia-Romagna). From the property, Mount Penna, on which stands the Franciscan hermitage of La Verna, can be seen in the distance.

The buildings (more than 2,200 m² in total) were later added over the centuries and eventually encompassed what was most likely a small castle placed to defend the road between Casentino and Valdarno. The structure of the hamlet is oriented east-to-west so as to shelter the buildings from the cold winds from the north and denotes great attention to detail.

Importantly, the hamlet was inhabited until relatively recently: sixty people still lived there in the 1970s. One of the features that make the property very interesting is the presence of a virtually endless supply of water thanks to a very rich natural spring that has always bubbled up in the upper part of the estate.

The estate stretches for a total of 112.2 hectares (277.2 acres): of these, most are covered by the typical Casentino woods (80.0 ha that also include a chestnut grove) while the remaining area is devoted to arable land (19.8 ha) and pastures (11.7 ha). The presence of a large amount of water, both from the spring and from the two streams, opens the way for multiple possibilities of use of the farm.

In a panoramic position overlooking the sea and the Strait of Messina, in northern Sicily, villa to be renovated with outbuildings for sale. The main house (326 m² – 3,508 ft²) is a single-story building, as are the two outbuildings (total 64 m² – 689 ft²). All the buildings need major restoration and reconstruction work, but the private location and very close to services make this property very attractive. About 6.0 hectares of land surround the structures.

For daily needs, the nearby supermarket is also within easy walking distance (less than 5'), while other basic services (gas stations, hospital, schools, pharmacies...) require only a short drive from the house. The junction of the A20 highway (Messina-Palermo) is less than a fifteen-minute drive away.

This farmhouse to be restored with outbuildings is located not far from the medieval town of Citerna, in a convenient and panoramic position. The buildings (520 m² in total) are in need of a complete renovation and are ideal for those looking for a property to customize to their taste. The 9.2-hectare land surrounding the farmhouse is covered with forest and is suitable for the creation of a garden (with potential swimming pool).

Services are available in the immediate vicinity (5' drive) and many of the best-known centers of Tuscany and Umbria can be reached in less than an hour's drive (Anghiari, Città di Castello, Umbertide, Cortona, Perugia, Assisi...).

In the hills on the border between Umbria and Lazio, on the banks of the Tiber River, 150.8-hectare estate with Agriturismo for sale.

At the production level, the estate counts on an olive grove (1,000 trees) and 78 ha of arable land.

Basic services are available in the nearby village (3km; 5’), just past the Tiber River, where there is also a convenient train station that makes it possible to reach Rome in about an hour. The border location is very convenient as it ensures a quick connection also to many art centers of Central Italy (Montepulciano, Amelia, Città della Pieve, Bolsena, Todi...).

In a very panoramic and reserved position in the municipality of Monte Santa Maria Tiberina, rustic farmhouse for sale.

The buildings are surrounded by 2,100 m² of flat land that could be turned into a garden, with the possibility of building a swimming pool.

The buildings, the residential ones in particular, are in need of major renovation and modernization, as they have been out of use for several years and have old installations.

The large volumes available (for which a change of destination could be considered subject to the opinion of the competent bodies) are very suitable if one wanted to start a receptive activity in one of the most renowned areas of Tuscany.

The farm covers a total area of 120.0 hectares (296.5 acres) and more than two thirds of it consists of woods (83.6 ha). The remaining area includes large portions of arable land (32.3 ha very suitable for planting vineyards) and an olive grove (3.7 ha). Two natural ponds allow irrigation for crops.

Set in a very convenient and panoramic location in the historic center of Monte Santa Maria Tiberina, historic 13th-century house for sale. Originally the home of the duty collector, the building has been renovated and converted into a private residence and enjoys an enviable location due to its proximity to the public parking lot at the entrance to the town.

The dwelling has a total area of 225 m² and enjoys 370 m² of garden in full privacy that provides a pleasant outdoor space where dinners can be set up during the summer stay.

The entrance hall leads directly to the living area consisting of the kitchen and living room. From here one then proceeds to the bedroom and bathroom (recently renovated), a second room and the pantry with laundry. From the entrance a staircase leads to the upper floor, consisting of two large rooms.

For those who would instead like to use the property for income, the building can easily be divided into two independent apartments without the need for modifications but simply by making a wall at the entrance.

The small palace has been completely renovated maintaining, where possible, the ancient materials and original details, such as some of the old terracotta floors, the ceilings and in particular the entire lower ground floor where the stone arches and stone walls dating back to the 13th century are perfectly preserved.
