Authentic hunting lodge, historic features, guest house, air conditioning, electric car station, white truffle reserve, for sale south of Siena. Prime setting, just ten minutes south of Siena, in the heart of the Val d’Arbia and within easy reach of the Crete Senesi, Montalcino and the Val d’Orcia, this distinguished mid-18th-century country residence stands in a private yet convenient position, moments from local shops and amenities. Formerly the hunting lodge of a noble Sienese family, the estate enjoys views across the Tuscan countryside, framed by cypress avenues and Mediterranean planting.

In addition, ancillary living areas and a traditional bread oven. The estate holds an agriturismo licence for 20 guests and benefits from an established international clientele with a weekly renting rate of 12.000 USD. The property is equipped with a 20 kW photovoltaic system providing sustainable energy and hot water production, alongside air conditioning, and an electric vehicle charging station. A panoramic heated swimming pool with jacuzzi, sun terraces and a volleyball court complete the leisure amenities. Of particular distinction is the private white truffle reserve within the woodland. The landscaped grounds extend to 4 hectares (10 acres), comprising formal gardens, pasture, woodland, and organically cultivated arable land.
