Description complète
Dated back to the X century, renovated into a charming 5-bedroom country home, guest quarter, annex to be converted for sale near Poppi, Arezzo. Casentino is the name of the upper Arno valley with the Arno origin, a closed valley south east of Florence, on the ancient route to Arezzo. It is one of the most beautiful Tuscan valleys, rich in history, natural beauty and vast forests. The Borgo of the former Strumi Abbey in the Casentino, steeped in history, rises on the right bank of the Arno. Strumi is an ancient Benedictine abbey founded at the end of the 10th century by Count Teugrimo dei Guidi. It was the target of Frederick Barbarossa, who appointed the abbot of Strumi as counter-pope and gave him the name Callisto III. In the plain called Campaldino, not far from the abbey, the historic battle between the Guelfs of Florence and the Ghibellines of Arezzo took place in 1289, in which Dante Alighieri participated as a young knight. The former abbey building spreads over three floors and preserves its natural stones, terracotta floors and walls, stone colonnade and porticoes, wooden beam ceilings, and stunning views from all windows. The ground floor consists of cellars and storage rooms. The first floor is accessible via two curved external staircases and is divided into a large living room with a kitchen and fireplace, two bedrooms and a bathroom. The second floor has a ground-level entrance on the northern side of the building and indoor stairs lead up to an anteroom, a double-size living room with kitchen and fireplace, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. A separate 1-bedroom guest flat is also included together with a two-story utility building (approx. 200 sq m/2152 sq ft), which can be converted into further living space. The garden and courtyard are approx.. 3800 sqm, yet further adjoining arable land can be purchased, up to 23.3 acres, with separate negotiation, as well as 6 further apartments within the borgo. Further details are available on request.
