A historical journey across four levels, courtyard garden, residences with terraces, shop, cellar, garage, for sale in the borgo of Asciano, Siena. In the heart of the historic centre of Asciano, a charming village in the Crete Senesi just 25 minutes south of Siena, overlooking the basilica and fountain in the main square, stands one of the oldest medieval palaces in the town, built in the 1300s as the residence of an influential Sienese aristocratic family. An authentic period residence covering a total of 792 square metres/8,525 sq ft spread over four floors, retaining all its the travertine architecture of the main façade, the late Gothic windows with pointed arches, the cross vaults on the ground floor and the exposed chestnut beams and terracotta tiles on the ceilings of the upper floors. The property stands out for the extraordinary versatility of its spaces and its four independent entrances, a feature that makes it ideal both as a prestigious private residence, to be customised according to a high-end contemporary design, and as a charming boutique hotel in the heart of authentic Tuscany. The current layout of four apartments, combined with retail and ancillary spaces, allows for a high-profile project. In overall good condition, with renovations carried out in 1980 and 2014 for the shop area and one apartment, it offers large windows, high ceilings and bright rooms perfect for a flexible and functional reconfiguration, enhancing each floor with tailor-made solutions. The ground floor houses a retail space currently used as an ice cream shop with a valid licence, consisting of a 78 sq m/840 sq ft open-plan area with brick vaulted ceilings, along with a pantry, a hallway, two bathrooms and a utility room. The floor is completed by a garage with striking cross vaults, and a single-entrance storage room connected to two cellar rooms in the basement. The entrance to the apartments is also independent, featuring a solid wood door and internal stone staircase. On the first floor, two multipurpose rooms open directly onto the access to a privately-owned courtyard with garden, a delightful space in the historic centre, ideal for relaxing or al fresco dining. The main floor houses a 180 sq m/1,938 sq ft apartment consisting of a living room with veranda, kitchen with access to a 37 sq m/398 sq ft terrace with pergola, three bedrooms, and two bathrooms, flanked by a second 64 sq m/689 sq ft two-bedroom apartment with living room, small terrace, kitchen, and bathroom.
