Description
In the heart of the centre of Volterra, a historical mansion of great value. On the ground floor, there is a large entrance, a room once used as a granary and some rooms to prepare the wine, as well as an internal courtyard with a well; on the lower floor there are also cellars. On the main floor there are two large frescoed halls, a frescoed bedroom with alcove, two bathrooms and a sitting room which houses part of the library; on the rear there is a living room which overlooks a large inner courtyard under the hanging garden of about 500 square metres, embellished with green plants, the studio and the dining room, also overlooking the same courtyard; in addition there is a kitchen with its own courtyard equipped with a well and a large storage room. On the second floor, there are five bedrooms, two of which are frescoed, a large, frescoed hall, three bathrooms, a wardrobe room and various hallways. The long-arched gallery houses another part of the library. The different floors are joined by a series of black marble staircases. The third and last floor has a small bedroom, a bathroom and another library, six attic rooms and a small service.
Condition and finishes
The historic building is rich in frescoes that decorate most rooms, antique fireplaces and rare ceramics perfectly preserved have been laid on the floor creating games of colour and shapes. The atmosphere that you breathe is refined, time having stopped; it welcomes guests in elegant environments. The facilities are all in good shape and no major ordinary or extraordinary maintenance work is required.
Outdoor spaces
The garden, partly structured with Italian-style flower beds and decorated with many fruit trees, is not visible from the outside. It offers silence and quiet, giving absolutely no impression of being in the centre of town. Spacious and cozy, it may also accommodate a small pool to spend moments in absolute relaxation and total privacy. Many rooms in the building have direct access to the garden and the liveable terrace set up with tables and armchairs.
Potential uses
The mansion is perfect for a large family who want to live in an elegant and refined environment without sacrificing cozy outdoor spaces and close to all primary services, as well as convenient to reach the main Tuscan cities.
Perfect investment also for an entrepreneur who wants to transform the building into a boutique hotel of charm and value.
