Tucked away in the serene rhythm of the Tuscan countryside, just minutes from the village of Castiglion d'Orcia, Borgo Le Piagge offers a rare opportunity to inhabit a piece of living history. This timeless hamlet, dating back to the 1700s and home to ten year-round residents, exudes a quiet authenticity, lovingly preserved through the centuries.

The nearby ski slopes promise seasonal adventure, while the surrounding landscape offers stillness and seclusion—without isolation. The hamlet is easily accessible, with no unpaved roads, and everyday amenities just two kilometres away. At the heart of the estate lies a 352 square meters historic stone building, currently arranged as two independent residences. Each space features generous living areas, one or two bedrooms, and thoughtful details drawn from local tradition—terracotta floors handmade by artisans, exposed wooden beams, open fireplaces, and wooden-framed windows with double glazing and insect screens. Adjacent to the main house is a open-plan cottage, fully serviced and ready to be shaped into a guest house, creative studio, or peaceful retreat. Two garages offer practical storage or parking. Completing the property is a three-storey, 193 square meters building awaiting restoration—its layout and size brimming with potential for those looking to expand into hospitality or further family accommodation. The estate is embraced by 9,238 square meters of land, including a well-tended 5,556 square meters olive grove, natural woodland, and a private landscaped garden of over 1,800 square meters Whether as a refined country home or a characterful base for a boutique hospitality project, this property brings together timeless architecture, natural beauty, and everyday convenience in a way few places can.
