Description
Villa Merelli si trova su un poggio tranquillo a pochi chilometri da Arezzo, lungo la strada che porta a Siena. Immersa nel verde e nella quiete della campagna toscana, questa antica dimora del XVI secolo è una delle più storiche e affascinanti della zona. La proprietà comprende tre edifici: la villa principale, di circa 800 mq, e due annessi di circa 200 mq ciascuno, tutti circondati da un parco di 7.000 mq con querce secolari. All’esterno si trovano una piscina riscaldata di 25 metri, un campo da tennis in erba sintetica e un comodo…
parcheggio privato.
Upon entering the villa, one is greeted by a scale reproduction of one of Piero della Francesca's most famous frescoes, part of the cycle of the Legend of the True Cross. This is no coincidence: the villa once belonged to the Bacci family, historic patrons of the artist.
Over the centuries, two secondary buildings were added to the main structure, built with local materials such as stone and terracotta, perfectly integrated into the natural surroundings.
Surrounding the villa are six hectares of land: one hectare is dedicated to the vineyard, others contain around 200 olive trees, a small orchard with peaches, apricots, apples, pears, figs, cherries and walnuts.
The property is fully equipped in terms of technology: 30 kW photovoltaic system, 50 kW condensing boiler, 110 metre deep well, water softener for the aqueduct water, heat pump, air conditioning system, 25 kW emergency generator and WiFi connection in all rooms.
All the buildings have been recently renovated in accordance with earthquake regulations, with a complete overhaul of the electrical, plumbing and heating systems. The interiors have been carefully restored, maintaining the original soul of the villa: period furniture salvaged from the property, wrought-iron beds, wooden window frames with traditional fastenings and handcrafted decorations on the doors, inspired by famous works of art and created by local artists.
The villa has large and functional spaces: an entrance hall, living room, dining room, kitchen with Carrara marble, cloakroom, laundry room, large cellar, wood-burning oven, 12 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, a panoramic terrace and a suggestive Leopold-style altana.
One of the outbuildings has been converted into two independent flats, each with a living room, kitchen, bathroom and two bedrooms.
The second annex houses, on the ground floor, a workshop equipped with bathrooms and machinery such as lathe and milling machine, while on the upper floor there is a large storage room with two more bathrooms.
Monte San Savino is a charming hilltop village located in the Arezzo Valdichiana, only 20 km from Arezzo. Rich in history, art and tradition, it preserves a well-kept historical centre with Renaissance palaces, loggias, ancient churches and medieval walls. The birthplace of the sculptor Andrea Sansovino, it offers a high quality of life, an evocative landscape and all the main services. Its strategic position between Arezzo, Siena and Cortona makes it ideal both as a main residence and as a holiday home in Tuscany.
