The history of this property can already be read on its centuries-old façade, where an ancient stone coat of arms and a plaque dating back to 1628 stand out, evidence of the building's important past. The property belonged to the Rospigliosi family, one of the most influential families of Pistoia and Florence, which counts Pope Clement IX among its members. The estate, set in the evocative landscape of the historic Tenuta di Groppoli, still preserves traces of the area's ancient optimisation works and stone structures dating back to past centuries. Not far away stands the majestic parish church of San Michele Arcangelo, a thousand-year-old building that dominates the valley with its timeless charm. This church, dating back to the year 1000, was founded by the Lombard count Guido III and houses a valuable pulpit carved in 1194, still admirable today in its extraordinary beauty. The estate has spanned centuries of history, remaining a point of reference for the local nobility. The Rospigliosi family were protagonists of important architectural and agricultural developments in the region, bequeathing not only fine buildings but also a territory shaped with terracing works and irrigation systems that were avant-garde for the time. The farmhouse itself is a perfect example of Tuscan rural architecture, with a solid structure and fine materials that testify to its history and prestige.
The property consists of two buildings. The main farmhouse welcomes guests in rooms with typical Tuscan charm, embellished with terracotta floors from Impruneta, ceilings with exposed wooden beams, fireplaces and pietra serena details. The interiors have been carefully restored, maintaining the architectural tradition but enriching it with a touch of modern elegance. The pastel and neutral tones, together with fine materials, create a cosy and refined atmosphere. The dwelling consists of spacious living areas with kitchen, four double rooms with en-suite bathrooms, two independent flats and a splendid suite with living room. The common areas are spacious and bright, with furnishings designed to enhance the beauty and comfort of the environment.
The detached barn, which is on two levels of approximately 80 sqm, has been converted into a refined annexe with its own entrance. This building offers a cosy living area with a living room and a kitchenette, a double bedroom and a bathroom. The renovation has respected the original Tuscan style, with details in wood and stone, making it a perfect space for guests or for those who want more privacy.
Outside, the property stands out for its magnificent private park, which extends over three hectares of land dotted with centuries-old olive trees. Several outdoor living areas, with elegant verandas and dedicated spaces, invite guests to enjoy every moment of the day: from breakfast surrounded by nature to al fresco dining under the pergola, and aperitifs at sunset. The enchanting panoramic swimming pool, framed by greenery, offers a corner of absolute relaxation, ideal for cooling off on summer days or simply to be lulled by the silence of the Tuscan countryside.
This exclusive farmhouse for sale is a splendid opportunity for those who wish to live in the heart of Tuscany with all the comforts of modernity, immersed in a setting of authentic historical and scenic beauty.
