Pienza, Siena (província)

A renovated farmhouse of 470 square metres with a panoramic swimming pool, 4 hectares of olive groves and views over Pienza and the Val d’OrciaREF. PNZ441There are properties that simply present you with a view and ask for nothing more. Il Terrazzo di Pienza is one such property: situated 500 metres from the centre of the Renaissance village of Pienza — one of Italy’s most celebrated — it boasts a terrace and a 12×6-metre swimming pool that open out onto the Val d’Orcia in all its depth, right up to the outlines of Pienza itself, which frames the horizon like a 15th-century painting. A place of absolute beauty and total privacy, yet just a stone’s throw from village life.The renovated farmhouse comprises two complementary wings, covering a total area of approximately 470 square metres. The main building, spread over two levels and covering approximately 320 square metres, features on the ground floor an entrance hall, a study, a spacious living room with a large fireplace overlooking both the entrance hall and the living area, a kitchen with a pantry, a bathroom with a shower and a cellar; a portico of approximately 50 square metres seamlessly connects the interior spaces to the garden. On the first floor are four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a second living room with a fireplace: the sleeping area opens onto a panoramic terrace of approximately 50 square metres, which is the true hallmark of this farmhouse. A second, single-storey wing — approximately 90 square metres plus a 40-square-metre porch, currently enclosed and used as a living room with a fireplace — adds two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a separate kitchen, each with its own entrances and spaces.The large agricultural outbuilding of 300 square metres, offering the potential to convert up to 150 square metres for residential use and the flexibility to reposition it within the grounds, further expands the scope for development. The grounds, covering approximately 4 hectares, with olive trees and a private pond used for irrigation, offer a sense of seclusion that words struggle to convey. The possibility of acquiring a further 3 hectares of adjoining land brings the total potential to approximately 7 hectares.
