An extraordinary estate dating back to the 1500s, with views over the castle, luxury finishes, a private garden and land for sale in Sarteano. A 16th-century property in Sarteano, set in an exclusive and panoramic position that seamlessly blends history with modern comfort. The residence boasts a total covered area of 544 sq m/5,855 sq ft and comprises an imposing main building of 353 sq m/3,799 sq ft flanked by architecturally captivating outbuildings, arranged across three floors. The interior layout is currently configured as three separate residential units totalling 21 rooms, offering exceptional versatility for hosting guests in complete privacy. The elegant pastel-toned rendered façades are enriched by majestic exposed brick arches and substantial corner stonework, framing double-glazed timber windows. Inside, the spaces celebrate the finest local architectural tradition: the grand reception rooms feature prized antique terracotta floors and stone and masonry fireplaces, crowned by ceilings with exposed solid timber beams and terracotta mezzane tiles. A restoration of the highest standard has skilfully integrated contemporary luxury details, most notably a minimalist-design kitchen with a central island that harmonises beautifully with the interior brick archways. The sleeping quarters unfold across six refined bedrooms, some finished with warm parquet flooring, served by six luxurious modern bathrooms. These generously appointed bathrooms are fitted with glass-enclosed showers, elegant herringbone-patterned majolica tiles in soft aqua tones, and contemporary designer basins set upon natural wood shelving. Surrounding the villa, an estate of 21,197 sq m/228,186 sq ft ensures an inviolable haven of tranquillity. The grounds include a beautifully maintained private garden of 1,900 sq m/20,451 sq ft with shaded relaxation areas beneath elegant pergolas, from which one enjoys an unrivalled and commanding view over the ancient medieval Castle of Sarteano and the rooftops of the village below. Completing the picture are open green spaces, the whole estate introduced by a classic and distinguished wrought-iron gate.
