Energy-self-sufficient estate with farmhouse, annexe and stables, for sale in the heart of the Valdarno, Florence – Tuscany
Ref. FIR203
Nestled in the scenic Florentine countryside, between Florence and Arezzo, this property is a rare find for those seeking a sustainable estate in Tuscany that is efficient and has low running costs. Approximately 450 square metres of living space in the main farmhouse, a 70-square-metre annexe/former barn, a separate annexe of 40 square metres and the Rinco stables of 160 square metres, all surrounded by 17 hectares of private land comprising meadows, a productive olive grove and a picturesque ‘romantic’ woodland. The estate is already set up for organic production: honey, pollen and extra virgin olive oil.
The main farmhouse (450 m²), in typical Tuscan style, is spread over two storeys.
On the ground floor: a spacious triple living room, a large kitchen with an antique fireplace, a dining room, two double bedrooms and a guest bathroom.
On the first floor, accessed via a stone staircase: a large living room with a fireplace and a kitchen-diner, 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The presence of a kitchen on the first floor as well makes it easy to divide the property into two independent units, perfect for an extended family or a guest accommodation business.
Just a short walk away is the former barn (70 m²): today, the ground floor is used as a workshop, whilst the upper level houses a large space ideal as a guest flat or suite. A detached outbuilding (40 m²) houses a laundry room, bathroom and utility room: here there is a latest-generation pellet boiler, self-sufficient, with a 7-tonne storage capacity.
The equestrian facilities are a real added bonus: Rinco stables (160 m²) with a feed store, hayloft, washing area, tack room and 4 stalls (with the option to double this number). The facilities are completed by two very large paddocks, both fenced: one with a Rinco shelter in the garden, the other in the adjacent valley near the stables. A perfect solution for a private riding centre or to complement equestrian tourism.
In terms of energy, the estate is designed for maximum self-sufficiency: a photovoltaic system, solar thermal for hot water and pellet heating. The energy rating is currently being upgraded to achieve Class A+. The private well ensures further independence and low running costs. Terracotta floors, exposed beams and high-quality finishes combine with modern technology, creating a perfect balance between rural charm and comfort.
The 17 hectares of organically farmed land (meadows, olive groves and woodland) make the property ideal for a farm, a charming agritourism business, a country house with horses or an exclusive private residence in the countryside. The location is strategic: close to Florence, Siena and Arezzo, well connected to local amenities, yet set in a secluded and peaceful setting.
A complete property, ready to move into: green energy, privacy, generous spaces and potential for accommodation. The right choice for those wishing to live in or invest in a estate in Tuscany with land and stables, which is sustainable and efficient.
Located in the heart of Florence, this luxurious property offers easy access to both historic charm and modern conveniences. Nearby, you’ll find the iconic Ponte Vecchio and Uffizi Gallery, as well as exceptional dining at Michelin-starred restaurants. Proximity to Florence Airport ensures quick international connections. Enjoy cultural experiences, luxury shopping, and the lush Tuscan countryside, perfect for a balanced lifestyle.
