Description
A captivating property of noble origin, built by the Counts della Gherardesca and once part of a vast estate including the Romanesque church of San Piero, farmland, and farmhouses. Today, the complex retains the charm of its history intact and represents a unique opportunity for those wishing to enhance a residence of great architectural value.
The property comprises the main villa, an ancient building in a state of ruin adorned with an important noble coat of arms, a historic Italian garden with a central well and extensive surrounding lawned areas.
The villa, spread over three levels, offers generous spaces and a layout typical of the stately residences of the era. The ground floor comprises the entrance hall, dining room, a eat-in kitchen with pantry, two large reception rooms, living rooms, further service rooms, storage areas and a garage. The main floor, accessible via a scenic double-ramp external staircase as well as two internal staircases, houses a large room with an antique stone fireplace, an additional room, five bedrooms and three bathrooms. The second floor consists of eleven rooms currently used as an attic, with significant potential for conversion.
The property is in good general condition, with no apparent structural issues, although the technological systems require updating.
Of particular interest is the ancient building, contemporary to the villa and requiring restoration, which still bears clear evidence of its prestigious past. Between the two structures lies the evocative historic Italian garden, characterised by an elegant central well and original pathways awaiting restoration. To the rear of the villa, further meadowland extends, ideal for expanding the green areas or for the creation of a large private park.
The entire complex is subject to a constraint by the Superintendence for Archaeology, Fine Arts and Landscape, an element that certifies its significant historical and cultural value.
A residence of rare availability, ideal as a prestigious private dwelling, a charming accommodation facility, or a historic-architectural enhancement project.
