Sarteano, Tuscany

Reference: KPMQ-T2550. Dimora Buonriposo is an ancient stone farmhouse arranged over two levels with a total cadastral surface area of approximately 600 mq. The property can accommodate up to 16 people, both for private use and for hospitality purposes, and is particularly suited for hosting events and receptions. On the ground floor, the heart of the home is the master masonry kitchen with pantry, alongside an elegant dining room divided by a striking full brick arch. Two adjoining living rooms, connected by refined wood paneling and enhanced by a beautiful fireplace, offer spaces of absolute comfort. Also on this level are four bedrooms, each with its own en suite bathroom. The first floor, accessible via an internal staircase as well as two external staircases, one with a loggia and one with a terrace, features a second kitchen and a charming library lounge with fireplace. On the same level there are four additional bedrooms, four bathrooms, and an elegant vestiaire. The outdoor areas are designed for a lifestyle devoted to conviviality: a porticoed courtyard adjacent to the kitchen, complete with an outdoor fireplace and antique wood-fired oven, provides the perfect setting for open-air lunches and dinners; the magnificent pool area, with two pergolas shading an elegant 12 x 6 mt. biodynamic infinity pool, heated and finished in travertine/concrete; a 3 x 3 mt. travertine hot tub with panoramic views over the entire valley. The farmhouse is set within a 15,000 mq park, harmoniously planted with fruit trees, olive trees, vineyards and lavender, groves and rows of oak, holm oak, pine and cypress trees, as well as a splendid 6,000 mq English lawn with irrigation system, a 100 mq vegetable garden enclosed by a dry-stone wall (hortus conclusus), a small cypress grove, and a large external parking area accommodating up to 60 cars. The property also includes a spacious underground covered garage with w.c. of 210 mq., an ancient agricultural silo converted into an industrial laundry, and a further 12 ha. of arable agricultural land located in front of the estate. The property underwent an initial refined conservative restoration in the mid-1990s and today presents in excellent condition, having been lovingly and meticulously maintained over time. The architectural layout, distinguished by an elegant rectangular structure in exposed stone and brick - sourced from the historic Fabbrica di Santa Maria della Scala in Siena - opens onto two charming internal courtyards, harmoniously arranged and connected by striking round arches, which lead to the main entrance of the estate. The roof, clad with characteristic Roman-style terracotta tiles, was expertly restored in 1995. The interiors retain the authentic character of the Tuscan farmhouse, enhanced by original high-quality materials and finishes: traditional terracotta floor tiles, ceilings with exposed wooden beams and handmade terracotta mezzane tiles, wooden window frames and doors with double glazing, and a masonry-built kitchen. The most recent improvement works, carried out in 2012, included the complete replacement of doors and windows, renovation of the swimming pool and hot tub, replacement of the boilers, and the installation of an alarm system, outdoor lighting system, and irrigation system. The property is equipped with all utilities: 30 kWh electricity connection, water supply guaranteed by the public aqueduct + water drawing rights from an external pond for irrigation use, LPG heating system, telephone line / ADSL - WIFI with satellite dish, automatic gate with video intercom, LPG-heated swimming pool, concealed automatic irrigation system divided into 9 zones, perimeter alarm system + internal sensors. The property features an electric perimeter fence to deter wildlife.
