Situated in a setting of complete privacy, Tenuta Il Novello represents a perfect blend of the beauty of the Tuscan countryside and the convenience of being a short distance from the town center and all amenities. This charming estate includes a main stone farmhouse dating back to 1840, accompanied by three dependences and exclusive land of approximately 2.3 hectares.
The main farmhouse, approximately 350 sqm, extends over three levels: on the ground floor are two arcaded porches, the entrance, two living rooms adorned with large brick arches and featuring a large double-sided fireplace, a kitchen with pantry, two bedrooms, and a bathroom. On the first floor, accessible both by an internal staircase and the original external staircase, there are four bedrooms and three bathrooms, plus a sitting area with a fireplace opening onto the loggia. The second and top floor attic space includes a spacious room with access to a panoramic terrace, perfect for moments of relaxation, offering enchanting views over the Cetona countryside.
The first dependence, located opposite the main farmhouse, is arranged on a single level and includes a living area, a kitchen, a bedroom, and a bathroom, providing ideal space for guests or recreational activities.
The second dependence comprises a porch, entrance, kitchen-dining room, two bedrooms, and a bathroom on the ground floor. The basement houses two cellars and adjacent access to a grotto.
The third dependence, in fair maintenance condition and with great potential despite not being used for several years, includes an entrance, kitchen, lounge, two bedrooms, and two bathrooms, one of which is en-suite with one of the bedrooms.
The entire estate is surrounded by exclusive land of approximately 2.3 hectares, which also includes a small building in need of renovation, as well as an olive grove with around 170 trees and a small vineyard cultivated with Sangiovese and Merlot grapes.
Tenuta Il Novello represents a unique opportunity for those wishing to live immersed in nature, enjoying maximum privacy without sacrificing the convenience of being close to the town and services. STATE OF REPAIR The entire property has been completely renovated with high-quality finishes in the 1970’s, and has since been carefully and meticulously maintained over the years. The external facades of all the buildings are made of exposed stone, giving the property a rustic yet prestigious appearance, typical of Tuscan farmhouses in the area. Inside, one can appreciate ceilings characterized by wooden beams and terracotta tiles, creating a warm and traditional atmosphere, while the floors—also in terracotta—and the wooden fixtures elegantly complete the space, offering a perfect blend of historical charm and quality.
UTILITIES All the main utilities are present and functioning: electricity; water system ensured through connection to the public aqueduct, in addition to the presence of a private pond with a pumping system for irrigation; heating system powered by GPL, but works are currently underway for connection to the city’s natural gas. Additionally, there is a volumetric alarm system installed on all the buildings.
USE AND POTENTIAL USES Tenuta Il Novello represents the ideal choice as a prestigious second home in one of the most charming and picturesque areas of Southern Tuscany. At the same time, it has all the features to be an investment suitable for inclusion in high-end tourist rental markets.
