The Broom’s scent, Asciano, Siena, Tuscany

Derelict Farmhouse in need of a total fixer-upper project with outbuildings, hilly position with open panoramic views for sale in Asciano, Siena. Set in an intact natural context, with olive groves, organic farming, woods, scrubland, and wildlife, at 300 meters above sea level and access via a wooded road. Its position offers a breathtaking open view as far as Chianti, Pratomagno and Amiata Mountain, and over the Crete Senesi with Asciano and Rapolano. The original building dates back to the 12th century, and seems to have been a watchtower of a nearby castle, and is set on 10,000 sq mt/2,4 acres private plot. Already mentioned in the Leopoldino Land Registry and part of a great farm estate, it presents the typical peasant house architecture, with spaces and volumes designed for living, storage and stables. It consists of a two-story main body made by local terracotta bricks and various minor irregular-shaped annexes for approximately 350 sq mt/3767 sq ft of floor space (1900 cubic meters). There is also a nearby stone barn, probably made with materials recovered from the ancient fortification, which spreads over two levels for approximately 65 sq mt/699 sq ft (200 cubic meters). It includes a collecting water cistern, used to supply domestic and irrigation water to the farmhouse, and 100-meter private gravel road. The main water supply and electricity connections are just a few meters away. The dilapidated state of the structure, once teeming with life and then left to the pitfalls of time due to the social changes of the 1950s, offers an opportunity for renovation and creation of personalized architectural projects, which may include the swimming pool, home automation, photovoltaic and everything you wish for a country villa. Furthermore, the fortunate position and the road with little traffic guarantee privacy, making this property ideal for those seeking tranquility and contact with nature.
