Casale Solis · Pnz229

Contemporary Class A farmhouse in the countryside around Pienza, Siena, Val d’Orcia – Tuscany
Ref. PNZ229
Set within the iconic landscape of the Pienza countryside – the ‘ideal city’ of the Renaissance commissioned by Pope Pius II – this property perfectly embodies the concept of contemporary luxury in Val d’Orcia: privacy, breathtaking views and state-of-the-art comfort, all in perfect harmony with the rural character of the area. The view is expansive and unobstructed, with vistas that change throughout the day and across the seasons, and a direct view of the silhouette of Monte Amiata.
Casale Solis retains its original character in the external walls of local stone and brick and in its two-storey layout, but was completely renovated in 2020 to meet the demands of modern living, with particular attention paid to energy efficiency and the use of natural materials, in harmony with the surrounding landscape.
Two buildings, maximum versatility: private residence and high-end hospitality
The 8,700–9,000 m² plot comprises two buildings:
1) Main farmhouse – 422 square metres, Energy Class A

Designed to comfortably accommodate family and guests, or for mixed residential/hospitality use.

Ground Floor

Spacious open-plan area with living room and open-plan kitchen
A truly distinctive feature: an elegant and unusual stage equipped for concerts, ideal for private events, live music and high-profile entertainment
Guest bathroom
Outdoor gazebo equipped for al fresco breakfasts and lunches, a natural extension of the living area
Wood-fired oven
Self-contained flat: living room, kitchen, two bedrooms, two bathrooms (perfect for guests, staff or separate management)

First Floor (accessible via an internal staircase or a spectacular external staircase with a landing/loggia)

Five bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms
Storage room and laundry room
Utility rooms

2) Annex – 81 m²
Two self-contained mini-flats, each with a kitchenette, a bedroom overlooking the garden and a bathroom: an ideal solution for private hospitality, friends, family or separate rental use.
Interiors: creative design and authentic materials
The rooms are furnished with taste and attention to detail, featuring a refined blend of original features and contemporary touches: exposed metal structures, terracotta vaults, wooden beams and terracotta tiles, parquet and terracotta flooring. The result is a warm yet contemporary atmosphere, designed for a discerning clientele.
Comfort and efficiency: a beautiful home that is also smart to manage
The property is equipped with a separate heating system and solutions designed to reduce running costs:

Heat pump for heating and cooling in the villa
Double-glazed windows
Solar panels

Outdoors: a fragrant garden with the potential for a natural pond or natural swimming pool
The grounds feature ample parking and a well-tended garden with lavender, roses, a green lawn and a well-fed irrigation system. Part of the land has been deliberately left more ‘open’, offering future buyers the opportunity to design additional spaces (orchard, vegetable garden, relaxation areas) and, subject to planning permission, to create a natural lake or natural swimming pool – the perfect choice for those seeking a pool in harmony with the environment.
The property is completed by a silo and a small storeroom, useful for management and services.
Thanks to its clever layout and the presence of multiple units, Casale Solis is ideal as a high-end private residence but also as a non-hotel accommodation business in an area sought after by an international clientele for its landscape, culture, spa facilities and food and wine.
