Prestigious former cooking school in an ancient farmhouse

In the heart of the prestigious countryside of Poggibonsi lies “Podere a Cinciano”, not just a farmhouse, but a piece of history waiting to be restored to its former glory. Imagine stepping through the doorway of what was once the renowned cooking school of a famous chef from the second half of the 20th century, a place where passion for the culinary arts has deepened every stone. Today, this historic gem, documented and classified as being of significant historical and architectural value, appears as a black canvas, ready for an ambitious full renovation that can unveil its incredible potential. The core of the property is the main villa measuring approximately 494 sqm and spread over two floors plus a tower. Its generous interiors, with four bedrooms, two sitting rooms, a living room, a kitchen, an attic and seven bathrooms, tell stories of conviviality and await a vision capable of transforming them into spaces of pure charm. Next to the main villa stands a small outbuilding that once served as a boiler room and storage area. But it is the former professional cooking school, measuring about 204 sqm on the ground floor, that truly sparks the imagination: its ample kitchen spaces, the oven and the dining room are ready to once again echo with creativity and flavour, perhaps as the heart of an exclusive hospitality project or as a residence for true connoisseurs. To complete the property, an additional building of about 45 sqm perfect for hosting guests or staff. The entire estate is surrounded by a private courtyard with paved areas and green corners, which guarantee privacy and create a peaceful atmosphere. In addition, the property includes approximately 2.9 hectares of land, ideal for cultivating the scents and flavours of Tuscany. Located just a few kilometers from Poggibonsi and within easy reach of both Siena and Florence, "Podere a Cinciano" enjoys a privileged position of privacy while remaining well connected to the main hubs of the region. Its vocation for excellence is clear, offering the potential to be transformed into either a luxurious private residence or a prestigious agritourism. This is not simply a property, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to invest in a piece of Tuscan history, to revive a culinary legacy, and to shape a future grounded in prestige, beauty, and Tuscan excellence. A project that calls out to visionaries ready to embrace the challenge and transform “Podere a Cinciano” into the next icon of Tuscan hospitality and lifestyle. Let yourself be captivated by its charm and imagine the limitless potential waiting to be revealed.
