Nestled in the tranquil Tuscan countryside, just a short distance from Montepulciano, this charming historic villa dating back to 1790 is a rare example of a ”Casa Leopoldina” instantly recognizable by its distinctive central rooftop turret. A true architectural gem, it is registered in the Leopoldine Cadastre of Florence, which includes only 120 original examples, of which very few have preserved the original brick vaulted ceilings in perfect condition. Surrounded by 1.5 hectares of land, the property enjoys a meticulously maintained garden, a fruit orchard, and an outdoor entertaining area complete with a gazebo offering an ideal setting for living in harmony with nature. Once used for tobacco cultivation, the estate still retains the original drying structures, which remained in use until the 1970s. The main building, approximately 724 sqm, is spread over three levels and showcases a contemporary interior style, harmoniously blended with the authentic charm of its historic architecture. Exposed arches, original vaulted ceilings, and high-end finishes merge beautifully with refined modern design. The restoration was carried out in line with eco-architecture principles, using natural and sustainable materials, and features an electrical system installed by a world-leading brand. A swimming pool can also be built. Upon entering, the ground floor opens into a spacious open-plan area, filled with light and elegance thanks to continuous white resin flooring. A 24 sqm Italian designer kitchen, a dining room in the same style, and a vast 147 sqm living room come together as one impressive space, enhanced by a grand fireplace and dramatic arches that define the areas while preserving visual flow. This level also features a guest bathroom, laundry room, and a multipurpose room with independent access and plumbing in place for a bathroom, easily convertible into staff accommodation. An original stone staircase leads to the first floor, where an elegant lounge with a fireplace and ceilings over four meters high gives access to four en-suite bedrooms. The master suite, measuring 45 sqm, includes a double walk-in wardrobe, a 5 sqm dressing area, and a sumptuous 24 sqm bathroom. From here, one enters the enchanting colombaia tower (56 sqm), bathed in light and offering sweeping views of Montepulciano and Cortona, an ideal space for a study or creative retreat. The property also includes two annexes totaling 194 sqm, partially to be restored but already in good structural condition. One of the annexes houses the pellet boiler, connected to a centralized heating system that can be customized for each area of the villa, along with water management systems. An exceptional residence that beautifully blends the authentic soul of Tuscany with contemporary comfort and elegance, set in one of Italy’s most captivating and historically rich regions.
