Heritage mansion with church and farmhouses, 50% restoration completed, to be tailored, for sale with olive grove and vineyard in Chianti, Arezzo. Framed by castles and wine cellars of the Chianti region south of Florence, near Monte San Savino, conveniently located just 6 km from the A1 motorway, from a hill top Villa Serarmonio overlooks over an open landscape of country villages, olive groves, woods and vineyards as far as the Val di Chiana and Umbria regions. The first buildings, a church with a bell tower and farmhouses, were built in the early 1600s on the ruins of a 14th-century fortress, and later, in the early 1800s, it was transformed into a manor estate with mansion, underground cellars, park, belvedere, lemon house, stables for horses and carriages, and staff quarters.
The 17-acre (7-hectare) plot of land surrounding the buildings is partly cultivated with olive groves, with 650 plants and a production of a fragrant Tuscan evo oil, together with woods and a small Sangiovese vineyard. Following a long period of neglect, since 2013 all the buildings have been included in a restoration project, and to date 50 % of the works have been carried out including the consolidation or complete reconstruction of the architectural structures, from the roofs to the internal floors. Considering the long technical-administrative-bureaucratic timeframes for the approval of similar property development projects, both in terms of size and characteristics, being able to immediately begin customizing the project is an added factor of the highest value in Tuscany, allowing the completion, and opening of its doors, in a timeframe of a few months compared to years. Completion works will include plant engineering with modern and ultimate technologies, the interior design and finishes, the upgrade of the existing swimming pool, the outdoor landscaping with park areas, and the addition of a tennis court. The church, with its seventeenth-century character and decorations, is a distinctive element for hosting weddings, ceremonies, and spiritual retreats. Villa Serarmonio is a superb country mansion to be lived all year round with family and friends, a perfect place for holidays, meetings, parties, and events with the permit option to be converted into a boutique hotel/luxury accommodation with up to 25 bedrooms.
