Only ten kilometres from the picturesque town of Volterra, we offer beautifully renovated apartments inside an authentic medieval borgo. The hamlet dates back to the Middle Ages, when it was likely a manor house or a small castle. It has been carefully restored and transformed into eighteen apartments, a boutique hotel, a restaurant, a swimming pool and a historic chapel.
The hotel and restaurant are currently not operating, and the owners are seeking interested buyers or managers for future development.
Location
The estate is reached by a two and a half kilometre unpaved country road. 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 The coast is about one hour away
Features of the Borgo
Each apartment includes a private garden, a parking space and access to a stunning infinity swimming pool with panoramic views over the Volterra hills. The renovation, completed in 2008, preserved the original beauty of the structures with terracotta floors, exposed stone and brick facades, cross vaulted ceilings and traditional wooden beams. Windows are double glazed with chestnut frames. Bathrooms feature handmade ceramic tiles by the craftsman Francesco di Maio. All interiors are bright, spacious and full of character. Twelve apartments have already been sold and are used as holiday homes by their current owners.
Thanks to its central position between Volterra and San Gimignano, the borgo is ideal for relaxing holidays and also represents an excellent rental investment.
