Description: Interesting property in a panoramic position with a Nobile vineyard in Montepulciano. The real estate complex consists of two dwellings: one dating from the mid-70s of about 310 sq m and the other formed by an old farm completely to be renovated of about 200 sq m. Completing the property are agricultural lands of about 3.5 hectares consisting of 1 hectare of Nobile di Montepulciano vineyard, an olive grove with about 400 olive trees, and arable land with some fruit trees and a small woodland. Location & Lifestyle The property is immersed in the beautiful countryside of Montepulciano, with its Etruscan origins in a dominant position on the hills of the Val di Chiana. It is globally renowned for the richness of its territory with its vineyards from which the famous Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG is produced. It is also particularly renowned for the annual celebration inside the historic center of Montepulciano, on the last Sunday of August, the traditional Bravio delle Botti, an event where 16 men called “spingitori” of the 8 districts including Cagnano, Collazzi, Gracciano, Le Coste, Poggiolo, San Donato, Talosa, Voltaia compete, along with a procession of figurants in the costumes of ancient noble families. From Montepulciano it is easy to reach the charming town of Pienza, Cortona and the unique and evocative Val d’Orcia. It also enjoys proximity to major roads: including the Val di Chiana motorway toll booth on A1 located just 16 km away, Chiusi station about 25 km away, and Perugia airport about an hour by car, while Florence airport is about 120 km away. Description The real estate complex comprises two buildings with a total area of about 500 sq m, in an open and panoramic position over Montepulciano. The newer unit, built in the mid-70s, is a rural dwelling with related accessories and appurtenances, with the living area on the first floor reachable by an external staircase and consisting of a kitchen-dining area, living room, hallway, bathroom and three bedrooms on the ground floor, which extends along the entire upper part where there is a storage area above the house and a cellar on the basement level; there is also an underground garage outside the house, positioned between the underground garage and the cellar is the boiler room. Maintenance conditions are fair but require a general modernization. The other unit of about 200 sq m is located a little further down the slope from the other dwelling; it is an old farm with outbuildings and appurtenances that develop the living area with a storage room and a bakery accessible from the outside. It comprises a living room, hallway, bathroom and three bedrooms on the ground floor, with a cellar on the basement level. Also on the basement level with independent access are three more rooms intended as warehouses and storage, and outside the main building there are stalls and small volumes for farm animals. At ground level, detached from the main building, there is a storage shed. The farm is completely to be renovated. Completing the property is a water-rich land of about 3.5 hectares with 1 hectare of Nobile vineyard, an olive grove with 400 olive trees in production and the remaining arable land with some fruit trees and a small woodland. Condition and finishes The newer dwelling is in fair condition, while the old farm is completely to be renovated. Both, however, require modernization and renovation works, albeit at different levels of importance. External spaces The external spaces definitely need revisiting although they are well maintained. The garden can be turned into a terraced garden with a stunning view over Montepulciano. Development potential The property is perfectly suited for agricultural development, residential, or tourism- hospitality use, or both.
