A historic estate with a medieval castle-style villa and equestrian complex in TuscanyIn the heart of the picturesque south-eastern part of the province of Siena, among the majestic landscapes of the Crete Senesi, Val d’Orcia and Valdichiana, this exceptional historic estate of 98 hectares is offered for sale - a rare property where natural beauty, architectural heritage and rich development potential form a harmonious ensemble. Situated on a hilltop, the estate occupies a commanding position, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the vast Tuscan landscape. A winding road through the woods leads to this secluded residence, where absolute peace, privacy, and the atmosphere of the authentic Tuscan countryside reign supreme. The complex’s crowning glory is a striking 223-square-meter villa, designed in the romantic style of a medieval castle. Its distinctive silhouette, complete with a crenellated tower and clad in traditional hand-made terracotta bricks, blends seamlessly into the surrounding landscape and imbues the residence with a unique historical character. The villa occupies four levels. The ground floor features a spacious salon with a fireplace, filled with warmth and comfort, while the upper floors combine living spaces with access to two panoramic terraces. The building is crowned by a tower with Guelph battlements and a viewing terrace, offering spectacular views of the Tuscan hills, sweeping to the horizon. Adjacent to the villa is a meticulously restored 237 m² stone farmhouse, whose historic core dates back to the late 19th century. Today, it is divided into three independent apartments with one and three bedrooms, making it ideal for accommodating guests, a large family, or hosting a high-end agritourism project. The estate is surrounded by dense forests, spacious pastures, and fenced horse paddocks. The grounds include numerous outbuildings totaling 1,357 square meters, including stables for 30 horses, hay storage facilities, wine cellars, warehouses, and utility rooms, fully equipped for agricultural or equestrian activities. Historically, the estate was a renowned racehorse breeding center. Of the total land area, approximately 70 hectares were used as pasture, while the remaining land was used for oat cultivation and hay harvesting. Although horse breeding is no longer carried out, the complex’s infrastructure offers ample potential for the creation of a prestigious equestrian club, riding school, international-class private stable, or an exclusive country estate with its own equestrian facilities. The extensive estate encompasses woodlands, pastures, arable land, and manicured garden areas, creating a perfect balance between agricultural potential and natural beauty. This place will become a true haven for lovers of nature, equestrian pursuits, and secluded living amidst the renowned Tuscan landscape. Despite its absolute privacy, the estate enjoys an exceptionally convenient location. Trequanda is just a few minutes’ drive away, and the renowned towns of Pienza and Montepulciano are just 15 minutes’ drive away. The nearby A1 motorway provides quick access to the major cities of Central Italy, as well as Umbria and the picturesque Lake Trasimeno. This property represents a rare opportunity to acquire a historic Tuscan estate, where the grandeur of nature, architectural originality and rich heritage create the ideal conditions for the creation of both a prestigious private residence and an exclusive agritourism or equestrian project of international standing.
Located in Sinalunga, Tuscany, this property offers tranquil countryside living with easy access to nearby cities. It is about 50 minutes from Florence Airport and under 30 minutes to Siena city center. The area combines scenic landscapes with rich cultural heritage, featuring nearby vineyards, historic towns, and quality dining options, while maintaining good road connections and proximity to international schools in the region.
