Ancient castle with a swimming pool for sale between Chianti and Val d'Orcia, about 30 minutes from the cities of Arezzo and Siena. The property of about 1,000 sqm, with 10 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms, dates back to the first half of the 12th century and is located in a small hamlet, part of a chain of castles defending the borders between the Republic of Siena and Florence. Theater of numerous battles, the property was expropriated many times, partly damaged, and then rebuilt, preserving signs of every historic family that lived there. The singular facade, with its arched openings, coats of arms, and high crenelated walls, represents a true symbol of power. Despite its fortified exterior, the interiors of the beautiful residence are refined and expertly furnished with remarkable pieces of art.

Part of the garden with lawn includes a swimming pool area with a terraced solarium, changing rooms complete with bathrooms and showers, a small gazebo, and a large veranda with a gym. Part of the property's land includes 157 olive trees, from which it is possible to extract your own oil, and an enclosed parking area for over 5 cars.
