Exclusive Historical Hamlet With 140 Ha Of Grounds In Tuscany

Situated on the iconic hills of the Val Di Chiana, one of the most enchanting areas of Tuscany, this magnificent property for sale is an entire historical hamlet, composed of a 17th-century villa, several farmhouses and a park with a swimming pool. The hamlet is immersed in 140 hectares of land with olive groves, vineyards, woods and cultivated fields. A short distance from the town centre of Arezzo, the estate offers a perfect balance between serene tranquillity and convenient accessibility to services, ideal as a location for a farm or a charming accommodation business.

The Val di Chiana area is famous for its picturesque views and its strategic location close to art cities such as Florence, Siena and Perugia. On top of a hill at an altitude of 400 metres, the hamlet is strategically positioned to enjoy the natural and historical beauty of the region, with easy access to tourist attractions and modern amenities, while maintaining an unspoilt tranquillity that is increasingly sought after.

The hamlet has Etruscan roots and is today a small village with a church, square, mill and several houses. It has seen its structure evolve over the centuries, with the presence of mediaeval elements such as the village walls and a stretch of road dating back to ancient Roman times. The main villa, built in the 17th century, is distinguished by its refined interior that enhances its traditional historical charm. In the mid-20th century, the hamlet was converted into a farm, where families worked in the various buildings around the main house.

The property for sale offers 4,530 sqm of interior space, distributed among 9 buildings. The 17th-century villa overlooks terraces from which to admire the surrounding 360-degree panorama, from the peaks of the Tuscan Apennines to the Casentino and Valdarno. The villa is beautifully restored and offers a perfect combination of modern comforts and traditional aesthetics, thanks for example to its big stone fireplaces, terracotta floors, brick vaults and exposed wooden beamed ceilings. Inside are the dining room, kitchen and bedrooms with bathrooms. Large living areas with big windows overlook the valley and the private garden, equipped for outdoor dining, where a sunbathing area surrounds a swimming pool.

The village's central square is overlooked by the cellars, the church and the old mill that still houses the big stone wheel that, pulled by the donkey, was used to crush olives for oil production.

Immersed in the natural surroundings are eight other farmhouses and several rustic outbuildings such as stables and porches. Until the middle of the last century, the village was inhabited by families who cultivated the land and produced oil and wine of exceptional quality. Each building has been cared for to maintain its historical authenticity, adapted to modern conveniences. Some of them are in excellent condition today, others could return to their original splendour through further renovation.

Externally, the estate covers 140 hectares of land, including 12 hectares of certified Chianti vineyards, 15 hectares of olive groves, 108 hectares of woodland and 5 hectares of arable land. The diversity of the landscape offers an exceptional opportunity for farming and relaxation: from the private garden adjacent to the houses with the large swimming pool, to the outdoor recreational areas, to the nature trails that lead inland for walks or mountain bike tours.

This property for sale is a true oasis of peace and natural beauty, immersed in the wonderful setting of the Tuscan countryside. The village is the guardian of a heritage that continues to tell stories of the past, while offering the opportunity for development for a hospitality and agricultural business. Here you find the best that life has to offer: culture, history, comfort and nature, all enclosed in one of the most beautiful landscapes in Italy.
