Villa Cassandra, Manor House in a Medieval Town

A walled garden in the middle of a medieval town, which is the trick of the thing. In the heart of a medieval town a few kilometres from Siena, on the edge of the Val d’Elsa, an aristocratic manor house with its garden. You can walk to the shops in two minutes, and the walled garden means nobody can see you doing nothing in it. The villa runs to 732 m² over four floors. Historic cellars in the basement alongside a kitchen and a vaulted dining room; two large communicating drawing rooms on the ground floor, plus a self-contained apartment with its own entrance. The top two floors hold seven en-suite bedrooms, and an internal stair from the first floor climbs to a bedroom and bathroom in the turret. In a wing of a neighbouring historic building are two more units of 111 m² between them, both entered straight from the garden, a studio with kitchen and bathroom, and a room with a private bathroom. Twelve bedrooms and twelve bathrooms in all, arranged as three independently manageable units. There is a hall that would work as a restaurant, and a paved 60 m² canopy used for dining outdoors in summer. The buildings stand around the perimeter of the 632 m² garden, which looks out over the Tuscan countryside beyond the wall. Equally a private house or a hospitality business. Ask us which consents are in place if the second is what interests you.
