House, Detached

Description

Nestled in the heart of the picturesque medieval historic center of Chianni, a location steeped in Etruscan history and contested between the Bishop of Volterra and the Republic of Pisa, we find PALAZZO DI LUCIA. This majestic palace, dating back to 1700, is a tangible testament to the past, offering over 330 sqm of pure beauty and charm.

Strategically positioned, Palazzo di Lucia is only 45 minutes from the sea and Pisa airport, providing a unique blend of medieval atmosphere and proximity to modern conveniences.

The palace consists of a single large dwelling spread across 4 levels, offering a wide range of possibilities: the property is in impeccable condition but has the potential to be converted into multiple residential units, which could also be ideal for hospitality activities. The conversion into multiple residential units will require significant work, but the result will be an extraordinary investment.

From the mezzanine floor, the entrance leads to an initial area consisting of 3 spacious rooms, including 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, a brick-vaulted living room, and even a private chapel with frescoes still partially visible. An internal staircase, open and bright, leads to the main residence, where a spacious living room, a dining room with a kitchenette, and a balcony offer moments of relaxation and a panoramic view of the surrounding countryside.

The attic floor, accessible via a provisional staircase, represents a treasure to be rediscovered. Once renovated, it can become a distinctive feature of the property, offering an exclusive loggia overlooking the splendid panorama of the Tuscan countryside.

The palace is embraced by a large private garden at the back, with driveway access for cars, providing a space of tranquility in the heart of the historic center. Warehouses and a garage on the ground floor of the building, with over 100 sqm of space, add a touch of practicality to this uniquely characterized residence.

The excellent overall condition of the palace, the private garden in the historic center, the panoramic view, and its captivating history make Palazzo di Lucia the ideal property to create a charming small hospitality structure. Living here is a timeless experience, a journey into the past with the comforts of the present.

Immerse yourself in the life of Chianni, a charming medieval village with all major services at your fingertips. Of Etruscan origin, Chianni was a medieval castle contested between the Bishop of Volterra and the Republic of Pisa before finally falling under Florence's rule. An ideal place for gastronomic and scenic itineraries.

Within the scenic landscape, the "Cascate del Ghiaccione" waterfalls are not to be missed: a beautiful place to walk during the good weather. Ideal for a relaxing holiday. Just 7 km away, you'll also find the renowned Terme di Casciana for an alternative afternoon.

Chianni is centrally located for the main attractions of the area. Destinations like Cecina and Castiglioncello are easily reachable via a splendid provincial road that crosses the woods of the Pisan hills. In just 40 minutes, you can enjoy both the sun and the beaches. Volterra is reachable in 40 minutes, as well as the city of Pisa and its airport.
