Montepulciano, Tuscany 53045

Historic 18th-century villa with an ex-church deconsecrated, farmhouse, swimming pool, and private park among the vineyards of Nobile di Montepulciano. Ref. Mtp239. There are properties that belong to history even before the real estate market. Villa La Pieve is one of them. Immersed in Montepulciano's legendary terroir one of Italy's most celebrated agricultural landscapes, where rows of Vino Nobile stretch to the horizon across hills shaped by centuries of skilled viticulture this ancient rural parish from the 18th century stands at the end of a Tuscan white road that winds through vineyards and olive groves, as only the most authentic Tuscany can offer. The property, partially restored in the nineties and today awaiting a renewal that will enhance its exceptional potential, centers around the most extraordinary element of the area: the ex-deconsecrated church, non-use for over thirty years, with its two-story nave, white columns, terracotta arcades, and original herringbone brick floor. A unique volume about 500 sq m in total between villa and church naturally suited to a reception and private events hall as well as to a cultural space, a music hall, or the heart of a truly high-end country resort. The Villa: The villa itself spans multiple levels: on the ground floor, the main entrance leads to three salons suitable for meetings or reception rooms, a reception office, three additional offices, six toilets and storage rooms; on the first floor, two independent kitchens each serving one of the two wings of the building, both reachable by autonomous stairs eight bedrooms and nine bathrooms, all with exposed beams and original terracotta floors. The attic and basement house large technical and storage spaces. The Farmhouse: The independent two-level farmhouse, about 215 sq m, completes the complex: on the ground floor two large rooms, a kitchen, an office and service bathrooms; on the basement two storage rooms, technical rooms, changing rooms, a pantry and additional bathrooms. Currently used as storage and offices, it is readily adaptable into luxurious guest annex or autonomous forester. The Pool: The 612 m underground pool with Roman staircase is already realized in a panoramic, striking position. The park and garden surrounding the property feature ancient tall trees and traditional Mediterranean plantings, with the possibility of acquiring additional surrounding agricultural land. Only 8 km from Montepulciano, with its cellars and Renaissance history, and short distances to the Chianciano Terme and San Casciano dei Bagni spas, Villa La Pieve is one of the rarest and most original opportunities available in Tuscany today magnificent as a private representative residence, extraordinary as a luxury country resort.
