Podere San Sisto

Pomarance - Tuscany

Situated in a panoramic and secluded location, between the imposing Rocca Sillana and the scenic natural area of Masso delle Fanciulle, stands Podere San Sisto, a private estate immersed in unspoiled nature that combines traditional architecture, absolute privacy, and breathtaking views.
Surrounded by a landscape of woods, trails, and gentle hills typical of the Upper Val di Cecina, the estate offers a rare opportunity to live or invest in an untouched and beautiful setting.
The elevated, private position away from main roads guarantees total privacy and is ideal for developing a high-end hospitality facility, where silence, nature, and a 360° panoramic view become distinctive and essential elements.
The main villa likely dates back to the late 19th century, with subsequent modifications and expansions respecting the original Tuscan style.
The apartments on the first floor of the villa are habitable, equipped with functioning systems and basic finishes.
The remaining spaces – particularly the ground floor rooms, attic, and secondary buildings – require renovation but have ideal features to be transformed into charming independent suites, perfect for hosting guests in an exclusive setting immersed in tranquility and nature.
