Maremma

In the hilly area of the Maremma, at 250mt above sea level, in the municipality of Scansano, stands this typical Tuscan farmhouse with fifteen hectares of land.
Originally built in the 1950s, the farmhouse was renovated by the current owners in the early 2000s and consists of a ground floor including a living area with fireplace, a large kitchen, an outdoor patio and a hallway leading to a bedroom, a bathroom and a further large room now used as a storage room.
In the skillful renovation, a comfortable internal staircase was inserted to connect the ground floor to the first floor, in addition to the original outside stairs, which led to an independent entrance to the upper level.
The upper floor consists of a living area, three bedrooms and three bathrooms, and a large terrace overlooking the countryside.
The renovation has maintained the simple character of the farmhouse, embellished with good materials such as Sienese terracotta throughout the floor of the house, wooden window frames and restored antique doors.
A former pigsty, to be restored, and a 150 sqm warehouse cellar are part of the property.

The land descends gently down the hill with olive groves (950 trees) and vineyards which are the true value of this property
For over twenty years the property was the home of the renowned organic winery, "Poggiopaoli", which raised Sangiovese, Merlot, Ciliegiolo and Petit Verdot vines and produced excellent, award-winning wines, such as "Rossodibrenno" a red wine from native grapes, characterized by the right sugar and alcohol content and good fixed acidity and the “Lorenzolo”, a special Morellino di Scansano DOCG.
The area of Scansano is famous for the production of this particular type of red wine, Morellino di Scansano DOCG, a lively wine, with an intense flavor and refined aromas. Morellino di Scansano DOCG is among the best-known Tuscan red wines and certainly the most typical of the Maremma. A wine born on the hills, where the Etruscans already cultivated, and with the scents of the sea to make it special. The Poggiopaoli wine company was included in the authoritative "Guida dei Vini Quattrocalici" for being one of the most important wineries in the province of Grosseto.
For those who want to be winemakers cultivating vineyards and producing excellent wine and extra virgin olive oil, this is the right place.
