Description

Immerse yourself in the rustic charm of Italy with this sprawling 16 bedroom country house nestled in the heart of Tuscany, Rapolano Terme, Siena. This sizeable property, known as Casale Il Sol Levante, is brimming with potential, awaiting your personal touch to transform it into a dream home or an appealing retreat for travelers seeking a taste of the Tuscan countryside.

The property is perched on a massive 1540 sq.m plot of land, offering an enveloping sense of tranquility. The residence is embedded in the midst of a lush greenery, enveloped by an intimate garden, an orchard with a vegetable patch, an olive grove, and a forest retreating into the horizon.

Staying true to its roots, the house was crafted from natural stone, while the interior has echoes of Tuscan tradition with cotto bricks arches, vaulted ceilings, and very high exposed wooden beams. The traditional U shape layout fosters a sense of community, with inner courtyards acting as communal areas. While certain sections of the house have been restored, much of it requires a comprehensive refurbishment which offers an exciting opportunity to put your stamp on this impressive country home.

This property features:

- Three manor residences encompassing 13 bedrooms
- A detached 1-bedroom guest cottage
- Additional annexes to be revitalized and converted to expand living spaces.
- Scope for in-ground pool installation, addition of new household systems, and incorporation of solar panels.

The local area offers an authenticity of Tuscan life away from the hustle and bustle, where serenity reigns. The property is a stone's throw away from the village of Serre di Rapolano, adding the convenience of proximity to local amenities. The Siena-Bettolle motorway provides a seamless connection to must-visit sites such as Cortona, Montepulciano, and Siena. And for those enamoured with the fruits of the vine, the world-renowned vineyards of Chianti Classico are within easy reach.

Furthermore, the location allows you to enjoy the best of Tuscany throughout the year. Sprawling landscapes of the Crete Senesi offer a panoramic view of the rolling hills, cloaked with rare historic churches and medieval settlements. For a rejuvenating retreat, the thermal hot springs of Rapolano Terme are a mere 10 minutes' drive and provide an inviting escape year-round.

Last but not least, settling in this property also means being a part of Italy's rich climate tapestry. Tuscany is graced with a mild Mediterranean climate characterized by sunny, dry summers, and mild winters – perfect for alfresco dining, vineyard hikes or just basking in the sun-soaked landscape.

Purchasing this unique property is not just about owning a piece of real estate; it's about embracing a lifestyle steeped in serenity, tradition, and rich history. Whether it's for private use or redevelopment into vacation homes, Casale Il Sol Levante promises to offer a transformative journey under the Tuscan sun.
