This exceptional property for sale, located in the historic heart of Volterra, is a rare gem with a fascinating past. Originally a chapel and later transformed into an alabaster workshop, the building has been carefully restored to create a unique, multifunctional space.
The centrepiece of the property is the spectacular main room, with its 7-meter-high ceiling, offering an open and airy ambiance that is truly one-of-a-kind. The floor has been upgraded with colourful cement and equipped with underfloor heating, making it a comfortable, multi-purpose space suitable for a variety of uses. The roof has also undergone significant work as part of the restoration, bringing the property to a renewed state. The property includes a bathroom with a shower, a mini-kitchen, an all-purpose room, and a small mezzanine, all contributing to its charm and usability.
There are two entrances: one directly off the street and one via a gated entrance leading to a private inner courtyard, shared with a neighbouring property, offering a peaceful outdoor space. Despite being located in Volterra’s historic centre, the property includes the rare feature of a private parking space situated directly in front of the building.
While the property is currently registered as a workshop, it can be converted into residential living space. Thanks to the impressive height of the main room, there is great potential to add a gallery level, further expanding the property’s possibilities.
