Prestigious 3,000 sqm property with 58 Hectares of land (Woodlands, Olive Groves, Vineyards, Arable Land, Lavender and PDO Saffron Cultivation) overlooking San Gimignano

Situated on a scenic hill along an ancient branch of the Via Francigena, this enchanting hamlet overlooks the Val d’Elsa countryside, offering direct views of the towers of San Gimignano. A place of great charm, nestled among the most beautiful villages in Tuscany, it boasts a strategic location between Florence, Siena, and Volterra.

The origins of the hamlet date back to the medieval era, and in the 16th century it became a noble residence and a center for humanistic studies, frequented by notable figures of the Renaissance.
Today, the complex retains its historical charm, enhanced by a high-level restoration that makes it a unique opportunity for hospitality projects, boutique residences, or high-quality agricultural enterprises.

The estate is divided into several units, including renovated buildings, rural structures to be restored, and a deconsecrated church.

The renovated portion of 960 sqm, which represents a substantial part of the property, underwent a nine-year conservative restoration (1994–2002), using original materials and period details, and includes:

Hospitality structure (approx. 530 sqm, over three floors): 5 double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, air conditioning, fireplaces, exposed wooden beams, handcrafted terracotta floors, travertine staircase, stone arches, and a medieval tower housing the panoramic suite.

Outdoor spaces: Swimming pool, solarium, wood-fired oven, pergola, and flowering garden.

Manor House (430 sqm)
An ancient two-story tower house in excellent condition, arranged as follows:

Ground floor: Living room with fireplace, study, kitchen, laundry room, and guest bathroom.

First floor: three bedrooms, including a master bedroom with a fireplace and an external loggia.

Original features: floors recovered from a 15th-century church, stone walls, antique terracotta-paved courtyard (300mq), medieval wine cellar and access to historic underground spaces

Additional Buildings and Development Potential
Deconsecrated church with historical frescoes, now used as a private residence with its own garden.

Approx. 1,500 sqm of buildings to be restored (former pigsties, warehouses, rural outbuildings).

Independent agricultural building (registered in the 1830 Leopoldine Cadastre) with approved project for conversion into tourist accommodation, overlooking lavender fields and olive groves.

The urban and architectural layout of this valuable hamlet offers exceptional potential for cultural, agricultural, and tourism development projects.
