Description

Close to the medieval village of Castiglion Fiorentino, nestled in a small hamlet among olive trees and hills, stands an ancient 17th-century monastery, now transformed into a unique residence that has changed its appearance over the centuries while retaining its charm intact. Where a portico once stood, the walls have incorporated the original columns, which remain visible as silent presences that today, after the latest restoration, seem to re-emerge from the stone. The complex covers a total area of 847 square meters, of which 532 square meters are habitable and 315 square meters are used for attics, technical rooms, outdoor storage, and even an ancient cave. The entire property underwent a complete renovation carried out between 2008 and 2020; which brought to light evocative rooms and traces of ancient decorations, restoring the building to its vocation as a noble and authentic residence. Now divided into four independent apartments, the farmhouse retains a different atmosphere in each room. The master apartment, measuring 381 square meters, welcomes guests with a spacious entrance hall covered by a barrel vault and 17th-century stone floors. The main floor leads to a large and bright living area with an original fireplace and high ceilings with beams and tiles. The main floor is completed by a large master bedroom with a wardrobe and a large bathroom. Fragments of ancient frescoes still adorn the walls. The second apartment, measuring 141 square meters, has three bedrooms and stands out for its restored ceiling decorations and a private garden enclosed by an ancient stone wall. In the old cellars, the third apartment, measuring 100 square meters, reveals splendid cross vaults that give the rooms a unique character and has two bedrooms. The last unit, converted from the former drying room, is an intimate 70 m² retreat on two levels, with a bedroom and en-suite bathroom on the ground floor and a bright living room with kitchen on the first floor, overlooking the rear garden. Outside, the property opens onto almost four hectares of land with olive trees, woods, and well-kept gardens. The 5x12-meter panoramic swimming pool, framed by the landscape, offers unforgettable views of the village and the surrounding hills. In the courtyard, between the farmhouse, the barn, and the swimming pool, a large 70-square-meter canopy with an outdoor kitchen and living area is the heart of the property and invites you to enjoy outdoor living to the fullest. This historic residence is an ideal property for those seeking a prestigious private home, but also perfect for developing a high-end tourist hospitality business. A 17th-century residence that tells its own story and, thanks to its recent restoration, is ready to open new chapters.
