A short distance from the picturesque San Gimignano, overlooking the historic center of the town, renovated farmhouse for sale. The building (875 sqm) is currently used as a holiday home and has a total of seven apartments, all framed by a well-kept garden with swimming pool and private parking. It remains possible, however, to convert the building into an elegant private home.
The property, conveniently accessible via a mostly paved road (only the last stretch is gravel), is located not far from a village offering all necessary services (1km; 3') and less than 10 km from San Gimignano, whose towers are clearly visible. The location in the heart of Tuscany allows to reach most of the art cities of the region in less than an hour and a half (Siena, Florence, Monteriggioni, Volterra, Pienza, Montepulciano...).
DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY
The farmhouse (875 sqm – 9,415 sqft, 13 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms), which was originally part of a medieval monastery located along the Via Francigena, was renovated in 1995 and converted into a charming B&B with seven apartments (six for guests, one for the owners).
• Apt. A (90 sqm – 968 sqft): living room, kitchen, two bedrooms and bathroom;
• Apt. B (88 sqm – 947 sqft): living room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom;
• Apt. C (132 sqm – 1m420 sqft): living room, kitchen, two bedrooms and two bathrooms;
• Apt. D (80 sqm – 861 sqft): living room, kitchen, two bedrooms and bathroom;
• Apt. E (143 sqm – 1,539 sqft): living room, kitchen, two bedrooms and bathroom;
• Apt. F (55 sqm – 592 sqft): living room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom;
• Apt. G (212 sqm – 2,281 sqft): living room, kitchen, three bedrooms, walk-in closet and three bathrooms.
The renovation made it possible to preserve the original appearance of the building, maintaining the typical structural features of the Tuscan countryside such as stone walls, brick arches and wooden beams supporting the ceilings. Despite the historic nature of the building, the rooms are well lit and the softly colored walls help the diffusion of light throughout the rooms. In terms of amenities, modern equipment such as air conditioning and satellite TV have been installed to ensure maximum comfort for guests.
The farmhouse is surrounded by a well-maintained 4,650-sqm garden that includes a 14 × 6 m swimming pool with terracotta sunbathing area, a convenient gravel parking area with canopy, and large relaxation areas overlooking the medieval town of San Gimignano.
The property is fully fenced and has dual driveway/pedestrian access, reached via a picturesque road lined with vineyards and olive trees.
