Description
Volterra, one of Tuscany's most fascinating and historic medieval towns, is a place where Etruscan history blends with centuries of culture and tradition. Located between the Val d'Elsa and Val di Cecina, the town is famous for its architecture, historical monuments, and timeless atmosphere. in the heart of Volterra's historic center, we offer for sale a beautiful portion of a 17th-century noble palace, a residence full of charm that stands on the remains of an ancient medieval building. The brick decoration of the arches on the entrance portal is a testament to this medieval origin.

The palace spans three floors and offers large spaces that are ideal for renovation to enhance its historical character and beauty. On the ground floor, we find the main entrance leading to a dining room, a kitchen, a bathroom, and two rooms used as a study. On the first floor, a hallway leads to a dining room, a kitchen, and three bedrooms, all characterized by refined decorations and high ceilings with classical ornamental medallions. The staircase, made of marble with original herringbone flooring, connects the floors and is a striking aesthetic feature.

The second floor houses the habitable attics, which could be converted into additional living spaces. The property also includes a storage room on the ground floor, cellars in the basement, and a garage. The original decorations, such as the wall paintings and ceiling details, are intact and testify to the rich history of the palace, but some renovation is needed to bring the property to its full potential.

This residence offers an extraordinary opportunity for those who wish to live in a historic and charming setting, with the potential to turn it into a luxurious home. The central location in Volterra allows you to enjoy all the comforts of the town, with museums, monuments, and shops just a short walk away. Furthermore, its proximity to San Gimignano, Pisa, and the sea makes this property especially appealing as both a residence and a tourism investment.
