This old farm house on the edge of Volterra is accessed via a private lane.
Accommodation comprises: Ground floor private entrance, beautiful fitted kitchen with authentic stone sink, breakfast bar and dining area, small storeroom, and a large bedroom. Stone stairs lead to the first floor comprising: hallway, spacious living room with fireplace, new bathroom with shower, and second bedroom. The rooms are bright, with views of the hills all around. There is an abundance of well-preserved character, including cotto floors, beamed ceilings, exposed stone work, brick arches, stone features and fireplaces.
Outside is a pretty courtyard where one can sit in the cool of the evening. A garden to the side of the house has a lovely pergola to sit outside, and there is also a cellar opening onto this space. The property includes 20,000 sqm of land (about five acres) with an amazing view over the hills, and many spots from which to enjoy an aperitivo at sunset. Two further, large cellars with vaulted ceilings, provide storage and potential for other uses.
Rising gracefully from Tuscany’s gentle hills, Volterra commands sweeping views across a landscape of rolling countryside and dramatic erosional formations known as the balze. Founded 3,000 years ago as one of the twelve sacred cities of the Etruscan League, Volterra remains Tuscany’s oldest continuously inhabited settlement, wrapped in medieval walls that stretch for three miles around the historic core.
From the tower of the 13th-century Palazzo dei Priori—Tuscany’s oldest town hall—panoramic views sweep across the Val di Cecina toward distant coastlines. Just 44 miles from Florence and 31 miles from the Tuscan coast, yet feeling wonderfully isolated, Volterra offers the medieval experience without the crowds, where cheese, white truffles, and exceptional local wines create a culinary tradition rooted in centuries of Tuscan terroir.
