Description

Originally restored in the early 1990s, the main structural work of this stone farmhouse has been completed, but further development was paused, leaving a blank canvas for a new owner to shape the interiors and landscaping to their own vision. Some damage has occurred over time?specifically to the portico, which has suffered subsidence, and to the garage end wall, which has partially collapsed?offering the opportunity to renovate with modern standards while retaining authentic character.
With a total area of 478 sq.m., the current layout allows for the creation of a generous five-bedroom country home. Alternatively, the property could be divided to include an independent guest apartment or holiday rental unit, enhancing its versatility and income potential.

Area:
Set in a commanding hilltop position with sweeping views eastward to Città della Pieve, glowing as the setting sun illuminates the medieval buildings poised on the brow of the hillside and westward across the lush valley to Monte Cetona. This traditional farmhouse is a rare opportunity to create a bespoke country residence. Located on the Tuscany?Umbria border, near Ponticelli, the property offers privacy, beauty, and excellent accessibility to both Rome and Florence, via the A1 Autostrada at Fabro or Chiusi/Chianciano.

Plans & Potential
An approved project exists to construct a swimming pool, pool house, and a new outbuilding, using the volume from the existing annex. It was planned in order to make use of the then existing grants but was never initiated. A revised plan has also been drawn up to include the swimming pool and to move the main access avenue to the east side, enhancing the arrival experience with ample parking and a grand entrance next to the external staircase and loggia. Concrete under flooring is already in place and all the beamed ceilings have been restored and sandblasted. All windows, shutters and exterior doors were installed but will need either restoring or replacing.

Main House:
The structural work is more or less completed. Internally there is concrete under flooring already laid, beamed ceilings restored and external fixtures mounted though some have suffered damage
The current layout is planned as follows:

Ground Floor:
Spacious living room with French doors opening onto a covered terrace
Cloakroom
Traditional farmhouse kitchen with doors to the covered terrace
Walk-in wardrobe
Dining room with French doors to the terrace
Laundry room
Self-contained bedroom suite with en-suite bathroom and dressing room

First Floor:
Accessible via internal stairs or the external loggia staircase
Central living room
Large master suite with lobby, bedroom, and bathroom enjoying windows on three sides
Corridor leading to three additional bedrooms
Large family bathroom
Attic Floor:
There is a spacious attic space that can be accessed from the living room

Location Highlights:
Typical countryside setting with uninterrupted panoramic views
Near Ponticelli, equidistant between Rome and Florence
Close to Città della Pieve, Montepulciano, San Casciano dei Bagni, and Chiusi
Ideal for a family home, holiday retreat, or rental investment
