Description

Tuscan estate with restored villa, pool, restaurant and annexes for conversion, for sale east of Siena near the Umbrian border. Among the ancient routes that connect Montepulciano and Cortona, in the heart of the Tuscan countryside yet close to all amenities, this distinguished Leopoldine country estate embodies the timeless charm of the region’s noble villas. Dating back to the XVIII century, the villa crowns its 4.2-acre grounds with an air of elegance and quiet authority, while its sweeping views and ancient stone façades speak to centuries of heritage. The estate is enriched by several evocative agricultural buildings, awaiting transformation into refined guest quarters or stylish living spaces. Together, they present a rare opportunity for those seeking either a private retreat to enjoy with family and friends or a hospitality venture. Finely restored in 2009, the villa offers 445 square metres of elegant interiors, framed by brick arches, exposed beams, and a harmonious blend of tradition and comfort, with air conditioning throughout. Its landscaped gardens and a stone pool create an atmosphere designed for both leisure and entertaining. The villa’s layout has been thoughtfully preserved for convivial living, with spacious halls, a professional kitchen, and staff quarters on the ground floor, while the piano nobile hosts five ensuite bedrooms opening from a classic central hall. Crowning the residence, a turret double bedroom commands uninterrupted 360° views across the Tuscan countryside, a statement of prestige and romance in perfect harmony with its surroundings. Beyond the villa, the estate encompasses an additional 531 square metres within its historic agricultural buildings, each poised for conversion. Most remarkable among them is the former tobacco barn, with soaring interiors reaching eight metres in height, offering the potential to craft dramatic living spaces or an exclusive cluster of guest apartments. These annexes represent a unique development opportunity, enabling an expansion of the estate’s hospitality capacity to as many as 14–15 suites, a scale ideally suited to a luxury boutique retreat. The land offers a rare combination of lifestyle pleasure and agricultural opportunity, with an established olive grove of 100 trees already producing the region’s prized oil, while fertile arable land invites the creation of new vineyards. An estate where history, beauty, and opportunity converge, this villa stands as a rare jewel in Tuscany’s golden hills, a sanctuary of luxury and refinement in a location of timeless prestige.
