description
Immersed in the wonders of the Val D'Orcia, recognised as a Unesco World Heritage Site since 2004, this ancient Tuscan farmhouse for sale in Pienza consists of a farmhouse of approximately 1000 square metres with wellness centre, swimming pool, park and annexes with an already approved renovation project.
The property, set in a large garden of roses, fragrant lavender, olive trees and tall cypress trees, is striking for its simple and reassuring medieval beauty, the period to which the entire structure dates, typical of the houses in Bagno Vignoni, Rocca d'Orcia, San Quirico and Radicofani.
The main farmhouse, horseshoe-shaped with an external courtyard, is arranged on two floors, organised as follows.
Around the courtyard, on the ground floor, there are 4 bedrooms with bathrooms distributed in small flats, a main entrance, a kitchen, a cellar and a spacious covered veranda.
On the first floor there are 7 further bedrooms, which also have bathrooms and are distributed in various flats. One of the rooms has a cloakroom, while two are part of the same flat featuring a large living room with fireplace. The floor is completed by a further living room and two large panoramic terraces.
A few metres from the main building there is a former barn converted into a wellness centre with a swimming pool equipped with hydro-massage and counter-current swimming, various relaxation areas with loungers and water beds and a changing room, as well as a bathroom and showers.
In the basement of the building there is a large technical room.
Other outbuildings are a large warehouse of approximately 200 square metres and a former pigsty to be recovered.
The property will be sold with the green building redevelopment project, which also allows for the construction of a further 300 square metres from scratch.
A restaurant, underground garages, a new access road and an outdoor swimming pool are planned.
The farmhouse currently has a stone façade, terracotta floors, radiator heating powered by LPG, air conditioning in almost all the rooms and piped music in the wellness centre.
About 6.5 hectares of land divided between arable land and olive groves with about 200 trees surround the luxury complex, offering magnificent views of typical Mediterranean vegetation.
Situated in the countryside of the village of Pienza, in the middle of the Val d'Orcia, the farmhouse enjoys a quiet and dominant position and at the same time is well connected to the main road by a convenient unpaved road.
All the necessary services can be reached in 5 minutes by car.
The main cultural and tourist centres in the area such as Montepulciano, Monticchiello, Montalcino, San Quirico and Bagno Vignoni can be reached in a maximum of 40 minutes by car, while the cities of Siena, Perugia and Arezzo can be reached in 45 minutes.
The motorway connecting the property to Florence and Rome is 25 km away, while the nearest railway station is 30 km away.
