Just ten kilometres from the charming town of Volterra, we offer beautifully restored apartments inside an authentic medieval borgo. This small hamlet dates back to the Middle Ages, when it was likely a manor house or fortified residence. It has been expertly renovated and transformed into eighteen apartments, a boutique hotel, a restaurant, a swimming pool and a historic chapel.
The hotel and restaurant are currently closed, and the owners are seeking new buyers or managers interested in reopening them, which adds investment potential to the estate.
Location
The borgo is reached through a two and a half kilometre unpaved country road. It sits in a panoramic and unspoiled area of Tuscany, surrounded by rolling hills and historic towns. Distances San Gimignano twenty two kilometres Florence seventy four kilometres Siena fifty one kilometres Lucca one hundred three kilometres Pisa International Airport seventy four kilometres Coastline about one hour by car
Estate Features
Each apartment includes a private garden, a parking space and access to an infinity pool with breathtaking views over the Volterra countryside. The renovation, completed in 2008, followed strict preservation standards. Original materials were carefully maintained, including terracotta floors, exposed stone and brickwork, cross-vaulted ceilings and traditional wooden beams. Windows feature double glazing and chestnut frames. Bathrooms are finished with handcrafted ceramic tiles by Francesco di Maio. All rooms are wide, bright and rich in Tuscan character. Twelve apartments have already been sold and are used as holiday homes by their current owners.
The combination of panoramic scenery, tranquillity and a central position between Volterra and San Gimignano makes these apartments ideal both as vacation homes and as high-potential rental investments.
