The San Gimignano Estate: A Slice of Paradise in the Heart of Nature
Nestled within a protected natural reserve, the estate is set amidst
the timeless beauty of a landscape adorned with the ruins of what once was a prosperous town over the centuries. The Borgo, which dates back to the Etruscan era, exudes an enchanting and mysterious charm that characterizes the entire reserve, inviting guests into an atmosphere that is both intense and utterly unique, all while offering the most modern comforts.
Meticulously restored in 2016, the property consists of two main buildings. The first houses a welcoming reception area, a relaxation lounge, a spacious restaurant, a fully equipped kitchen, and laundry facilities. An external staircase leads to the master apartment, offering a perfect balance of privacy and comfort. The second building is dedicated to the hospitality business, with 11 beautifully appointed rooms, each with an en suite bathroom, including 2 accessible for guests with disabilities, as well as 2 independent apartments. Completing the property is a magnificent swimming pool and a children’s playground, offering relaxation and fun for all ages. Surrounded by a lush park and approximately 100 hectares of land, the estate includes a mix of woodlands, arable land, meadows with lucerne, a vineyard, and an olive grove. The vast agricultural expanse provides numerous opportunities, whether for a peaceful
holiday retreat or as an investment in a flourishing agritourism and
agricultural enterprise. The Borgo fits seamlessly into the Tuscan landscape, maintaining
its rustic charm, while presenting itself in impeccable condition both inside and out. The terraces, pool, playground, and agricultural annexes have all been lovingly cared for and are ready to be handed over to the new owners in pristine condition, offering a truly turn-key experience. With its 100 hectares, the estate provides ample opportunities for profitable agricultural ventures, including the thriving agritourism
business, which comprises 14 rooms and its own restaurant. The land, rich with olive groves, vineyards, meadows, and woodlands, is perfect for cultivating authentic Tuscan produce.
