Villa Grottesche for sale in Armaiolo, Siena, Tuscany
Villa in a fortified village with a panoramic garden, lemon house, and oil mill, to be renovated, excellent for a tourist facility a stone's throw from the spa in Armaiolo, Rapolano Terme, Siena. In the ancient village of Armaiolo, a proud bastion of the defense of the Republic of Siena against the Florentines, this beautiful real estate complex consists of a sixteenth-century villa, its large front garden with a lemon house, and an oil mill. With a regular geometric shape, the villa is on 3 floors + attics and has a facade, in good condition, of a bold pink plaster interspersed with regularly spaced windows, decorated with yellow painted architraves, which open onto the surrounding valley and the village. Inside are the master rooms, mostly frescoed on the walls and ceilings with grotesques, geometric borders, and mythological themes, and the rooms used for the servants of the noble family to whom the Villa belonged. The structure does not require restoration while the interiors can be customized depending on the use that is wanted to make of it. The entrance from the garden boasts a double staircase bordered by balustrades and a wrought iron gate. A travertine wall surrounds the property leaving inside the lemon house and the oil mill. The first, which has a large access door and two large windows facing south, which guarantee plenty of light and air, has recently been used as a bar, and only needs a refreshment to the large single room that constitutes it, very high and characterized by the presence of columns and barrel vaults and a travertine floor, the typical local stone due to the presence of the sulfurous waters of the area. The oil mill, to be completely restored, can become a comfortable residence thanks to its generous surface area. The garden faces south, and its size easily allows the construction of a swimming pool with a large solarium, changing rooms, and a relaxation area. This property is an excellent solution for those wishing to invest in a spacious accommodation complex in a favorable position to the roads that connect the renowned Val d'Orcia, Valdichiana, and Crete Senesi with the rest of Italy.
