Castagna Country Villa with pool, Val d’Orcia - Toscana
Charming 16th-century stone farmhouse elegantly restored, currently operating as an agriturismo with 6 apartments and a pool, for sale in Val d’Orcia, Tuscany. Set in a splendid hillside position at 490 meters above sea level, overlooking the winding Orcia River below, the property lies just 15 minutes by car from Castiglion d’Orcia, Bagno Vignoni, and Montalcino. For mountain lovers, the summit of Mount Amiata is only 15 km away. Its strategic location between the Tyrrhenian Sea and Mount Amiata creates a unique microclimate, especially favorable for olive cultivation, resulting in one of Tuscany’s most renowned and flavorful olive oils. Once part of the Abbey of Sant’Antimo in Montalcino, this characteristic 16th-century estate has been masterfully restored and transformed into an elegant agriturismo, consisting of five residences, a separate guesthouse, and a south-facing infinity pool with breathtaking panoramic views. The residences are distinguished by traditional stone fireplaces, exposed wooden beam ceilings, and outdoor spaces such as terraces and loggias — perfect for al fresco dining and relaxing in the heart of nature. The guesthouse, slightly set apart from the main building, includes a ground-floor apartment with two bedrooms and a basement level featuring a garage, storage area, and laundry room. Easily accessible via a short stretch of unpaved road, the agriturismo offers a total of 12 bedrooms and accommodation for up to 24 guests. The beautifully maintained lawned garden is fully fenced. Ready to move into, Podere Castagna is an ideal investment either as a hospitality business for welcoming tourists exploring the Val d’Orcia, or as a private residence to enjoy year-round with family and friends.
