Tuscany, Siena, Montepulciano, Italy

17th-century villa to be updated and tailored, two levels plus rustic basement cellar, with Italian-style garden, for sale in Montepulciano, Siena. A very short distance from the historical centre of Montepulciano, on a hilltop and surrounded by a park with Aleppo pines, holm oaks, cypresses, chestnuts and hedges creating an Italian-style garden. In the lawn areas, to the side and rear of the building, there are some olive trees, fruit trees and a romantic wood of centuries-old holm oaks. A project for the construction of an underground swimming pool, spa with sauna and jacuzzi has recently been approved. The villa was built in 1600 as the country residence of a noble Polizian family, features a rectangular shape, a pavilion roof covered in terracotta tiles, and façades plastered in a soft ochre colour. The two residential floors consist of a main residence with stunning reception rooms and a staff/guest house with separate access from the rear of the building. Renovated in the 1990s by the current owners, it retains valuable features and each room, elegant and full of charm, leads back to the old noble times. The ceilings boast exposed wooden beams, in particular six large beams carved with sober wavy lines and simple floral motifs that create a delicate decorative effect. The original basement cellars conserve important brick vaulted ceilings, terracotta flooring and tuff rooms. Perfect as a private villa, ideal as a historical holiday home to host travelers with great potential thanks to Montepulciano year-round tourism.
