Splendid old hamlet of about 5700 sq. m. total with ancient Abbey to be restored and 54 hectares of land nestled in the hills overlooking the entire Mugello valley.
Description
Rich in history and charm, the main body for 3200 square meters total consists of the important Medici Abbey of 3206 square meters rich in history, art and charm where there is the ancient church of 571 square meters, the monks' quarters in addition to the rooms for practices and daily monastic life and the remains of the ancient cloisters supported by beautiful fifteenth-century columns and capitals. There are still ancient barrels and tools used by the monks for the production and storage of wine and oil. Adjacent are the various outbuildings totaling 2,500 square meters and there is also a historic and evocative underground passage connecting the abbey with one of the outbuildings. The abbey dates back to the year 1084, built by Count Hugh of Tuscany, who, lost in those woods, would have vowed to erect it if he had been saved. Belonging for many centuries and generations to the Medici family, in the early 1700s the monastery was completely restored by Grand Duke Cosimo III, who entrusted it to a community of Trappists, and in Buonsollazzo or "Buonsolatio" the first "Trappa" in Italy was founded, to reach the latest times, when in the Abbey the Camaldolese established a college there, in which several generations of monks received their first training. The name "Buonsollazzo" comes from the Latin bonum solacium or "Buonsolatio," which expresses good exposure to the sun.
Outdoor Spaces
The complex is immersed in its own private land of no less than 54 hectares of woodland and arable arable land and enjoys a beautiful view of the Mugello valley.
Condition and finishes
Most of the property is built with traditional materials and finishes such as brick and stone, generally terracotta floors and wooden fixtures. The monastery is in need of careful restoration and conservative rehabilitation work, and the other parts alternate between needing functional upgrades and renovations or building renovations.
Potential uses
The enchanting property lends itself well, through major and careful restoration, both to a sumptuous private residence and to an impressive and impressive luxury accommodation facility. Given the possibility of obtaining EU funding, given the peculiarity of the complex, given the pre-existence of a tourist-venatorial activity even if amateur, given the likelihood of expanding said activity by merging neighboring lands, a club-house with accommodations could be built in the Church and Monastery, in the annexes other and numerous accommodations, a restaurant and a hunting lodge.
Location
Strategic location along the Via degli Dei, a renowned road that joins Bologna and Florence, in the heart of the Florentine countryside, a few minutes from the town of Borgo San Lorenzo and a short distance from the renowned cities of Florence and Siena as well as from the fascinating resorts of Chianti Classico.
