DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS

The property is made up of many rural and residential buildings, split among four poderi of variable size.

The farmhouse A (422 sqm – 4,541 sqft) is laid out onto two floors. On the ground floor is located a room with stables for the animals and a cellar to store wine and oil. On the first floor is located the apartment N°1 (205 sqm – 2,206 sqft).

Right next to the farmhouse, a shed (104 sqm – 1,120 sqft) laid out onto to floors hosts a pigsty on the ground floor and a storage room on the first floor.

The farmhouse B (275 sqm – 2,959 sqft) includes on the ground floor several rooms used as storage rooms, stables and cellar. The two upper floors host the apartment N°2 (131 sqm – 1,409 sqft).

Right next to the farmhouse, an annex (75 sqm – 807 sqft) includes the old pigsty and a storage room.

The farmhouse C (340 sqm – 3,658 sqft) is laid out onto two floors and hosts several storage rooms, stables and a cellar on the ground floor. On the first floor is located the apartment N°3 (159 sqm – 1,711 sqft).

The farmhouse D (43 sqm – 463 sqft) is an independent residence on a single floor.

The operative headquarter (1,133 sqm – 12,191 sqft) hosts an ample room convertible into a wine cellar (710 sqm – 7,640 sqft) on the ground floor. Mounting onto the upper floors one can find the apartment N°4 (274 sqm – 2,948 sqft) and the apartment N°5 (149 sqm – 1,603 sqft).

A small farmhouse (244 sqm – 2,625 sqft) hosts the apartment N°6 (121 sqm – 1,302 sqft, split between ground and first floor) and a storage room.

This podere is completed by a barn (355 sqm – 3,820 sqft), a tool recovery (198 sqm – 2,130 sqft) and a pigsty (58 sqm – 624 sqft).

STATE AND FINISHES

The buildings, with the exception of part of the operative headquarter, need a full renovation before being usable, both as rural and residential units. The ample room on the ground floor of the headquarter is in good condition and is currently used as a storage house and vehicle recovery.

The mains water network only reaches the operative headquarter at the moment, while for the other poderi a linkage to the system is needed; otherwise one can resort to wells.

EXTERNAL AREA

The farmstead covers approximately 110 hectares of land, mainly (60 ha) used for cereals, sunflowers, corn and broad beans or covered in mixed woodland (32 ha).

The backbone of the farmstead is the specialized IGT vineyard (approx. 12 ha). The vineyard needs a few replanting and is currently made up of vines of Sangiovese (8.4 ha), Merlot (3.1 ha), Malvasia (0.3 ha) and Trebbiano (0.2 ha). Yearly production ranges around 1,400 quintals of grapes which are then sold to the Vecchia Cantina di Montepulciano.

Lastly, we have a 6-hectare olive grove, currently being replanted.

A lake (approx. 90,000 cu.m), located not far from the farmstead, allows irrigating the plantations thanks to a system of conduits and pipes reaching almost every corner of the property. There is also an irrigation system (a consortium instituted in the 1980s) which takes its water directly from the Trasimeno Lake.

USE AND POTENTIAL USES

The agricultural business is already started, with regular production of grapes (1,400 quintals a year), olives, cereals and sunflowers. A few portions of the vineyard are growing old and an eventual replanting would allow increasing total production.

As far as buildings are concerned, interiors are ample and would be perfect to start an Agriturismo and/or B&B, given also the presence of several interesting towns in the vicinity such as Cortona, Pienza and Montepulciano.
