Un Charmant Village à Rénover En Toscane

Located a short distance from Arezzo, on the slopes of the Casentino valley, this real estate complex is offered for sale, distinguished by exceptional privacy and a commanding position. The property consists of a historic settlement whose origins date back to the 7th century, set within an unspoiled natural environment.

The hamlet stands on a rocky spur at the confluence of two streams, occupying a site of strategic importance for millennia. The original nucleus includes a church with Greek architectural influences, bearing witness to the ancient outpost of the Byzantine corridor between Ravenna and Rome.
The buildings, totaling over 2,200 sqm, have gradually incorporated an ancient castle that once guarded the connections between the Cassia Vetus and the Via Romea.
The structures are oriented along an east-west axis, a configuration designed to protect against northern winds and optimize solar exposure, also ideal for photovoltaic systems.
From the property, the view extends as far as Monte Penna, home to the La Verna Sanctuary, giving the site a unique atmosphere of peace and spirituality that makes it an ideal retreat for those seeking refuge from contemporary noise and distractions.
The estate extends over a contiguous surface of 112.2 hectares, a landholding that guarantees complete privacy and full control over the surrounding landscape. The land includes a productive chestnut grove and is divided between arable land and pasture, suitable for organic or regenerative farming projects.
The true added value of the property is an exceptional perennial natural spring located in the upper part of the estate, which, together with the two watercourses, ensures complete water self-sufficiency for any future development.

CONDITION AND FINISHES
The hamlet, inhabited until the 1970s, requires complete restoration.

SERVICES AND UTILITIES
Water supply is provided through a well and a natural spring. Water is abundant throughout the estate, which also includes a river and several streams.
Heating is powered by wood-burning stoves, and solar thermal panels are also installed. Electricity is available, although all systems require inspection and upgrading by qualified technicians.

USES AND POTENTIAL
The hamlet is ideally suited for a variety of prestigious developments, offering investors the opportunity to reinterpret the existing volumes into a luxury hospitality project, such as a high-end scattered hotel.
The abundance of water and the diversity of the soils also allow for the development of a contemporary agricultural estate, while the strategic location, within easy reach of Arezzo and Florence, combined with the timeless and secluded atmosphere of the property, makes it equally ideal as a prestigious private residence, exclusive retreat, or international cultural center.
