Historic Tuscan country house with pool and olive grove, 20 km from Castelfalfi Golf
Set on a gentle rise in the heart of Tuscany, overlooking the Valdera landscape, this historic farmhouse for sale, where the passage of time has left visible and fascinating traces, is immersed in olive groves and open countryside.
The building has been carefully restored with respect of its original character while introducing high-quality finishes and modern comfort. Its origins can be traced back to around the 10th century, with later transformations that include former defensive elements and a tower incorporated during the 16th century, all still clearly legible in the stone structures and architectural details.
The house is arranged over two main floors and is completed by a panoramic turret with far-reaching views across the Tuscan hills. On the ground floor, the layout includes a kitchen, a living room, a bedroom and a bathroom, complemented by a spacious covered terrace and a traditional bread oven. The first floor, reachable both via the original external staircase and a refined internal staircase, opens onto a living room with fireplace, two bedrooms and a bathroom. The upper level within the turret hosts an additional bedroom with en-suite bathroom, enjoying exceptional light and scenery.
A separate barn stands nearby and requires renovation, offering further possibilities consistent with the style of the property.
A well-maintained Mediterranean garden surrounds the house and features a swimming pool with sunbathing area, barbecue facilities, a large pergola and a restored wood-fired oven, creating an inviting setting for outdoor dining. The land extends to roughly 7 ha, predominantly planted with mature olive trees that ensure privacy and an authentic rural atmosphere.
