Authentic estate with chapel, cellars, centuries-old park, olive grove, Merlot vineyards for sale with views of Siena and the Tower of Mangia. On the gentle outskirts of Siena, commanding sweeping views across the undulating Tuscan hills, lies Villa Casin de’ Nobili, an aristocratic estate steeped in history and elegance. Originally erected in the 17th century as the hunting lodge of a noble Sienese family, the villa is today enveloped by approximately 36 hectares (90 acres) of private land, encompassing a manicured park, centuries-old oak woods, an olive grove of some 400 trees, and a 2.3-hectare Merlot vineyard within the prestigious IGT Toscana appellation. A cypress-lined driveway leads gracefully away from the main road to the villa’s south-facing entrance, opening onto a grand courtyard with a classical belvedere. The residence itself, rising across four stately storeys and spanning over 1,700 sq m (18,300 sq ft), is built in stone with traditional terracotta roof tiles, a timeless testament to Tuscan architecture. The ground floor is introduced by a distinguished entrance hall, where a colonnade frames a majestic staircase of stone and wrought iron, illuminated by a vast skylight and rising elegantly through the heart of the villa. The piano nobile offers four impressive reception rooms with soaring ceilings adorned with early 20th-century decorative motifs, each flowing directly into the gardens. Beyond lies a long gallery leading to the traditional kitchen with its open fireplace and to the atmospheric underground cellars – vaulted chambers hewn in stone, ideal for private tastings or intimate gatherings. Above, a mezzanine level accommodates six bedrooms, a study and ancillary rooms, awaiting sympathetic restoration. The second floor, bathed in natural light and with direct access to the rear gardens, has already been refurbished to create a refined apartment with four bedrooms and three salons, each framing captivating vistas over Siena and its countryside. The attic floor, with generous ceiling heights and exposed beams, offers remarkable potential for conversion into further suites. A guardian’s house with adjoining greenhouse enjoys glorious sunsets over the hills, while the ancient granary, an imposing two-storey structure with soaring five-metre ceilings, lends itself to a multitude of future uses. The estate is complemented by a private chapel, still consecrated and in use for weddings, baptisms and family ceremonies. Ideally situated just a few miles from Siena’s historic centre, it combines tranquillity and convenience, seclusion yet accessibility. Whether preserved as a magnificent private residence or envisioned as a boutique hotel or exclusive hospitality retreat, with potential for more than 20 suites, the estate offers a rare opportunity to own a property that embodies the very soul of Tuscany: history, prestige and enduring beauty.
