Description
Quaint apartment with original elements from the 12th century in the historic center of Volterra.
This extraordinary property is located in the heart of the historic center of the famous medieval village of Volterra, offering a unique opportunity to live in a historic building of exceptional value. Originally a tower dating back to the end of the 12th century, the building has kept many of its original features intact, such as the robust stone walls, the imposing stone arches and the splendid two-hole apartment (now partially built) above a monofora on the first floor.
Inside, the historic atmosphere is enhanced by fascinating architectural elements, including brick vaulted ceilings with exposed beams and rafters, stone window sills and barrel vaulted ceilings and cruising above the original terracotta stairs and floors that add an authentic and refined touch.
The house, which is spread over two levels (second and third floor), welcomes visitors into a large living room. This space is characterized by fine chestnut wood floors, brick ceilings, beams and exposed beams, a splendid wood-burning stove and a magnificent fresco built by the Academy of Belle Arti of Volterra. On the same floor, the kitchen, with an ancient oven and a window overlooking the Medici Fortress, offers a convivial and charming environment. The floor includes a bedroom / study and a bathroom with shower.
An internal staircase, with stone walls, leads to the upper floor, where there is a double bedroom, a large single bedroom, a splendid fitted walk-in wardrobe, a large bathroom with windowed shower and a small built-in laundry area add comfort and practicality, while a practical storage room offers additional storage space.
Finely renovated in 2000, this property has preserved and enhanced the original features of the time, such as the wooden doors, stone walls, the characteristic niches and the original floors and ceilings. Every detail has been cared for with extreme attention, enhancing the beauty and uniqueness of this historic residence. Living here means immersing yourself in a timeless atmosphere, where history and modernity blend harmoniously.
