8 bedrooms villa, 627 m²

Terranuova Bracciolini, Arezzo (province)

In the heart of the rolling Tuscan hills, on the slopes of Pratomagno and overlooking the striking landscape of the famous Valdarno Balze (earth pyramids), we offer for sale an extraordinary 577 sqm historic villa. Built at the end of the 19th century in an elegant Renaissance style, it was masterfully restored between 1995 and 1997 with a meticulous recovery of every original architectural element. The residence keeps the charm of the era intact thanks to details of rare refinement: precious decorative fireplaces, original chandeliers and sconces, splendid marble and marble-grit floors, and a dramatic main staircase in pietra serena stone that harmoniously connects the four floors of the residence. The ground floor welcomes grand reception rooms, ideal for entertaining guests and hosting private events, as well as a guest bathroom and utility rooms. The upper floors accommodate a total of eight bedrooms and three bathrooms, offering ample space for family life or an exclusive hospitality business. The top level houses the attics, whilst the crowning glory of the property is a charming panoramic tower of approximately 30 sqm. Enhanced by a refined glazed structure invisible from the outside, it offers 360-degree views embracing the surrounding hamlet, the renowned Il Borro estate, the Pratomagno mountains and the Chianti hills. Outside, the villa is surrounded by a splendid Italianate garden, an authentic landscaping masterpiece characterised by elegant geometries of boxwood hedges, mature trees of botanical prestige, romantic shaded pathways and a striking circular stone basin decorated with water lilies, giving the environment an atmosphere of absolute harmony. The property also includes approximately 3,000 sqm of land, partly planted with vineyards and enriched by numerous varieties of fruit trees. Within the grounds there is an independent building of about 50 sqm used as a storeroom, benefiting from both direct access from the villa's garden and an independent vehicle entrance from the road. Furthermore, the land offers the possibility to build a panoramic swimming pool and a tennis court, further enhancing a unique property, perfect as a private grand estate or an exclusive charming residence in the heart of Tuscany.
