It spans three levels as follows: the noble part features a luxurious entrance and a spacious atrium. The ground floor also includes a very large kitchen, frescoed living areas that create a unique and grand atmosphere. Completing the floor are two rooms used as cellars/tavern, a service bathroom and a central heating plant. On the first and second floors, accessed by an elegant period staircase, lies the sleeping area with 10 large bedrooms, each carefully decorated and with a private bathroom featuring a jacuzzi. On the first floor there is a large terrace overlooking the garden and on the second floor a loggia with a view over the entrance of the villa. The farmhouse section is developed on two floors with: on the ground floor an entrance, a large living room with a brick arch, a kitchen, 3 bedrooms (two with private bathrooms), a service bathroom and a central heating system. On the first floor access is via an ancient stone staircase and offers 2 kitchens with a fireplace, 5 bedrooms (2 with private bathrooms), another bathroom and a storage room.

The properties feature high-quality materials, with various types of antique terracotta floors, exposed beams and other classic elements expertly renovated. The frescoes in the main villa are in excellent condition, creating a unique atmosphere.

Potential uses
The villa is ideal as a superb noble residence for those who appreciate luxury and tranquility. It is currently used as a hospitality facility, so it is perfectly suited to maintain its current use.
Location and lifestyle
The property remains within the unique context of southern Tuscany, on a flat portion of the Val di Chiana countryside with a commanding position. It benefits from close proximity to the village where all essential services can be found, and to the highway exit just 10 minutes away. Not far, there is also the main road linking Siena and Perugia, as well as the splendid medieval city of Arezzo, only 20 minutes away. Thus the villa is well integrated between the most tourist and cultural area of southern Tuscany, whose main centers such as Cortona, Montepulciano, Pienza, Monticchiello, and Lucignano are reachable in a maximum of 40 minutes, and the area with the best connections to easily reach major cities like Siena, Florence, Perugia and Rome.
