A typical white gravel road, leads to a 1600s farmstead on a 12-acre plot consisting of three stone buildings expertly renovated into a luxury boutique hotel with a swimming pool and restaurant. All original elements have been preserved and each room evokes ancient times with stone facades and walls, handmade terracotta floors, brick arches, and high ceilings with exposed wooden beams, some left natural and others whitened. Very impressive are the views from all windows and the natural light in every room. The guest farmhouse features characteristic stone stairs with porches, a south-facing loggia with lovely views, and eight bedrooms all with bathrooms in classic retro style and double sinks. The inner courtyard opens onto the banqueting farmhouse boasting elegant living areas with a fireplace and a dining room overlooking a panoramic terrace, ideal for al fresco dining. Within the Mediterranean-style garden, an infinity pool finds its perfect location with breathtaking 360-degree views, equipped with a dressing room with shower and toilet. Slightly detached from the two central farmhouses is a stone residence for private use, on two levels with two bedrooms, a large terrace, and a garage. A small vineyard planted with Merlot can be used for the production of an excellent Super Tuscan IGT. An enchanting location, a dream residence, perfect to host tourists with a loyal international clientele or for private use to enjoy with family and friends.
