Description
in the heart of Volterra's historic center, one of Tuscany's most charming medieval towns, stands this majestic 17th-century palace, featuring original frescoes and high-quality materials. The property is free on three sides and in good structural condition, although it requires some internal renovation, particularly regarding the systems and windows, with the opportunity to personalize the spaces according to one's tastes.
The palace spans three levels and consists of a spacious living area, bedrooms, and spaces that preserve the historical charm of the era. On the ground floor, the main entrance welcomes us into a large hallway, with two rooms currently used as a study, one of which has a recently renovated bathroom. The dining room is connected to the kitchen, creating a welcoming and social space.
On the mezzanine floor, there is a large hallway and a room currently used as a storage area. Climbing the original marble stairs, we reach the noble floor, where a beautiful living room with 18th-century frescoes captivates with its decorative details. This floor also features three unique bedrooms, one with a special alcove, and a dining room with kitchen and two bathrooms. A second entrance, located at the back of the palace, provides access directly from the garden.
On the second floor, the tall and spacious attics, currently used as storage, offer great potential to be converted into additional living spaces or service areas.
The basement floor is completed by historic cellars, one of which houses the olive oil, and others, with magnificent vaulted ceilings, which accommodate the diesel boiler and fuel storage.
The palace retains historic finishes of great value, such as frescoes decorating many rooms, original terracotta floors, and details typical of the 17th century. As soon as you step inside, you immediately feel the historical charm of this property, which lends itself both as a noble residence for a large family, and as a historic home for rental purposes or, thanks to its location and prestige, a luxury hotel.
