In the hills of Garfagnana, in a very panoramic and private position, 13th-century former monastery for sale.

A few kilometers from Lake Trasimeno, between the villages of Tuoro and Passignano, stands this 17th-century rural village formerly owned by the Marquis Ranieri di Sorbello.

The units range from 57 m² to 145 m² and all consist of a living room with kitchen/cooking area, one/two bedrooms, and a bathroom.

Connected to House Passignano is the former presbytery of the church (500 m² – 5,380 ft², 7 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms): the building, structured on three floors, requires significant restoration work but could easily be divided into apartments to expand the accommodation activity.

In the hills of Umbria, not far from Perugia and in an area of rare beauty, impressive estate with medieval abbey for sale. The numerous buildings on the estate largely need restoration work, but the property boasts incredible development potential with the possibility of creating a high-level accommodation business (over 150 potential bedrooms) combined with the agricultural activity already in place.

The heart of the property is the beautiful 10th-century Benedictine abbey (over 6,500 m²). The building rose on the remains of a pre-existing Roman temple and reached its peak around the 12th century. Over the years, various bequests and donations meant that the abbey came to exert its influence over more than thirty towns and twenty castles in the Perugia area. The cloister and church visible today were built in the 13th century, and during the same period the same buildings were embellished with fine art and furnishings. Crisis began to set in at the end of the 14th century, and the abbey slowly became depopulated, until in 1602 it became the focal point of a large farm.

A group of Cistercian monks came to the abbey in 1749 and remained there continuously until the Unification of Italy, when the property was expropriated and sold.

The interior of the abbey still features original elements of rare beauty: the chapter house houses beautiful religious-themed frescoes from the late 13th century, while the church (dating back to the 14th century) still has the original altars decorated with frescoes by Bartolomeo Caporali and Fiorenzo di Lorenzo. In the basement, however, is the crypt, which is, to date, the oldest part of the abbey.

In the grounds of the abbey there are also 50 rustic buildings including farmhouses and agricultural outbuildings (over 27,000 m²): some of these (around twenty) have been renovated over the years and are in excellent condition, while the remaining ones are in need of restoration, consolidation and renovation. At the same time, the Master Plan of the Municipality of Perugia would allow the construction of new volumes within some areas of the property (roughly equal to those already existing) intended for tourist and accommodation activities.

This resort is a breathtaking historical dwelling dating back to the year 1000, majestically located between Siena and Monteriggioni. This prestigious property represents an invaluable resource for the territory, offering the impression of being immersed in a natural park where human architecture and nature seamlessly blend. The estate encompasses a total of 51.7 hectares, featuring roughly 2.0 hectares of fenced grounds and 49 hectares of lush woodland. Access to the property is gained via an ancient road accredited as part of the complex network of the Via Francigena.

The complex underwent a meticulous renovation between 2007 and 2013 with the goal of creating a high-quality structure that fully integrates into its unique environmental context. The heart of the residence is a stunning internal courtyard that features a perfectly functional wood-burning oven and provides access to the primary living quarters. Accommodations consist of eight elegant suites that combine historical charm with modern comfort, featuring stone and brick walls, wooden beamed ceilings, and country-chic furnishings. These include four standard suites, two luxury suites equipped with fireplaces, and two expansive prestige suites that offer two bathrooms each. Additionally, a separate autonomous villa dominates the property, offering a large living room with a fireplace on the ground floor and two bedrooms on the upper level.

The estate is fully equipped for luxury hospitality and exclusive events, boasting a panoramic 10 × 6 m swimming pool and terrace that offer breathtaking views of Siena and the surrounding hills. Culinary excellence is found at the internal restaurant which serves traditional Tuscan dishes using seasonal ingredients from the property’s own organic garden. For wellness, the SPA has been masterfully carved into the historic dungeons, providing an indoor heated pool with hydromassage, a sauna, a Turkish bath, and emotional showers. Event capabilities are anchored by the eventhall, a structure capable of hosting 120 people, with approved plans already in place to replace it with a sophisticated glass and metal structure to further enhance the landscape.
