Property Description:
Valente Italian Properties is proud to present a Renaissance estate of unparalleled prestige, secluded in the mountainous paradise of Northern Tuscany. Often referred to as the “Switzerland of Tuscany,” this ultra-private compound seamlessly blends centuries of rich history with elite luxury.
Architectural Heritage
Commissioned 500 years ago by a member of the legendary Medici family and built over ancient Roman foundations, the main villa is a masterpiece of light and shadow. The grand lobby features 14 monumental Pietra Serena stone columns and a spectacular architectural glass ceiling and floor system, designed to flood the multi-level spaces with natural sunlight throughout the day. The interiors are adorned with museum-quality antiques and centuries-old artwork.
The Estate & Development
Potential
Spanning 150 hectares of untouched private land, the estate features multiple structures:
Main Villa: 3 floors of timeless elegance and grand living spaces.
The Guest House: A meticulously restored 350-year-old building offering 6 independent luxury suites.
The Lemon House: An exclusive poolside annex with potential for an additional underground floor.
Expansion Opportunities: Two additional ancient buildings awaiting renovation, plus approved building permits for an extra 2,000 sqm of new construction in the lower gardens.
Nature and Wellness Sanctuary
The estate is a self-sustaining natural oasis, boasting a formal Italian garden with historic fountains, vast private forests, a natural waterfall, and an independent mountain water source. Nestled on its own private hilltop, the property features a separate, substantial building hosting a state-of-the-art gym and wellness center.
While offering absolute privacy and security, the estate is just a 2-minute drive from a stunning medieval town that provides all essential services, shops, and authentic restaurants.
Furthermore, the property remains within easy reach of Lucca, Florence, the Tuscan coast, and nearby ski resorts. Having successfully operated as an exclusive boutique hotel, this compound represents a turn-key investment or a magnificent private sanctuary.
