The Country House
In the very heart of the Tuscan countryside, behold this 590 sq.m. property in all its magic. First impressions are breathtaking – and the enchantment is just beginning. A gated entrance and the gravel driveway present this charming home through layers of lush landscapes and majestic views.
Located on a private, gated hillside, it is composed by the main 330 sq.m. two-story building and its adjacent guest house.
Ground Floor:
The arrival garden pathway welcomes you to the property. Step inside and be greeted by a large entrance, which leads you into the heart of the house. On the right, you enter the elegant lounge area with its white beamed ceiling and cozy fireplace. Walk through a stunning arch and take in the beauty of the formal dining room, with double outdoor access and plenty of natural light flooding in.
Next to it, you find the chef’s kitchen and its pantry, showcasing a timeless Tuscan style with more white beams and cotto floors, as well as an informal dining area. From there you then access the laundry room, and a second lounge area. On this floor you also find an office room, a service bathroom, and an elegant bedroom with ensuite bathroom.
First Floor:
Walk upstairs and enter the main nighttime area of the house. Here you will spot four bedrooms, all with their ensuite bathrooms. One of them also has a private terrace overlooking the property. The style exudes classic Tuscan luxury, with more white beams and abundance of natural light flooding the interiors.
The Guest House
A few steps from the main home you find the 260 sq.m. guest house, which provides plenty of space for friends and family to come over and enjoy the beauty of Tuscany. Part of it is employed as a separate apartment, featuring a kitchen/lounge area, a bedroom with adjacent bathroom and a storage room.
The remaining part of the building is used as a storage unit, great for storing tools and organic products from the garden.
The Land
This property was conceived to seamlessly bind indoor and outdoor living. It sits on 42 ha of panoramic grounds, some of which is covered in over 4000 olive trees already producing organic olive oil. Around 10 ha of it is woodland, and the remaining land is arable.
The home is also surrounded by around 7500 sq.m. of fenced garden, which harbors a majestic rose garden with 450 lush roses, a vegetable patch, and an orchard. All around the property you also find countless relaxation corners that allow you to unwind and take in the beauty of the Tuscan countryside. Here you can also enjoy a 6×14 pool completed by sundeck, great for tanning.
Sit under the magical pergolas and enjoy a fresh drink, take a walk among the rose bushes, or savor the amazing taste of home-grown products! This property also presents the epitome of outdoor living: an amazing full size outdoor kitchen, completed with fridge and grill area, which you can enjoy in summertime and keep enclosed during the colder months.
The Location
This property is located in the Manciano municipality, not far from the Saturnia thermal baths. You can reach the town center in about 15 minutes driving, and the seaside is less than an hour away. This area is great if you’re looking for a quieter location, which is still close to all the main attractions of Tuscany.
Start your new life in Tuscany, with plenty of relaxing activities such as enjoying the Saturnia thermal baths, playing golf in the countryside or treating yourself to a day at a luxury spa. This area is dotted by endless, stunning hilltop hamlets – make sure you visit Sorano, Sovana or Pitigliano, you won’t be disappointed!
If you’re in the mood for more touristy activities, all the key towns of Tuscany are extra close for your comfort!

Why Buy It
This move-in ready estate is a great investment for two reasons. First of all, its prime location allows you and your guests to fully enjoy the beauty of Tuscany, without having to deal with the stress and chaos of its touristy areas. However, it is still very close to the main attractions of the region and the main airports, as well as the neighboring regions of Lazio and Umbria.
Secondly, it’s an estate with a lot of potential. It can become your new home for a slower, more relaxing life in the Tuscan countryside, but it can also be a vacation house. You can use it for your Tuscan holidays and rent it out the rest of the time with a permanent guardian staying in the guest home. It can also be used as an organic olive oil production business, and you can host tastings or production demonstrations for your clients.
