Historic Estate With A Farmstay And 6 Hectares In The Siena Region

Cetona – Historic Estate with Agritourism and 6 Hectares in the Siena Region

In the heart of the Siena region, nestled among the rolling hills of Tuscany, we are offering for sale this charming historic property, consisting of several buildings with a total floor area of approximately 950 square meters and surrounded by about 6 hectares of land, including fields and woodland.

The main house, dating back to the Leopoldine era, still retains the authentic character of traditional Tuscan country estates. Once owned by the noble Ottieri della Ciaia family and purchased in the early 20th century by the current owner’s grandfather, the estate was initially dedicated to the cultivation of hemp, wheat, barley, and corn. Since 1993, the property has effectively served as an agritourism operation, which has allowed the spaces and the estate’s unique character to be enhanced over time.

The interiors retain numerous original features, including distinctive vaults, arches, and refined travertine cladding. The ground floor features four spacious rooms, while a traditional outdoor stone staircase leads to the upper floor, where a characteristic loggia provides access to three independent apartments: two with two bedrooms and one with one bedroom. The property also features three kitchens, all fully functional and suitable for living, offering considerable autonomy in managing the various units and the lodging business.

Of particular interest is the large living room with twelve windows, once used as a natural drying room for crops. Opposite the main house are two distinctive farm buildings that complete the complex. The property also features a privately owned, legally permitted swimming pool, which currently requires restoration.

The approximately 6 hectares of land guarantee privacy, tranquility, and direct contact with unspoiled nature, home to pheasants, hares, roe deer, and squirrels. Guests at the agritourism property are happy to return to experience the tranquility of nature, the purity of the air, and the authentic beauty of the landscape.
The building, classified as D/10 in the land registry, is being sold unfurnished.

A property rich in history and character, ideal for those seeking to purchase an estate already established as an agritourism business, featuring ample space, multiple independent units, and significant potential for use in the heart of Tuscany.
