Arezzo Hills Farmhouse

Tucked into the wooded hills of the Arezzo countryside, this 17th-century stone farmhouse offers a rare kind of quiet — the sort measured in birdsong and the rustle of leaves rather than passing traffic. Restored with a light, respectful hand, it carries centuries of Tuscan character while still living comfortably as an everyday home.

The main house spans roughly 200 m² across two floors. Generous living spaces gather around original fireplaces, and upstairs the ceilings still wear their hand-painted wooden panels — the kind of detail no renovation can reproduce. Three bedrooms sit alongside the principal living room, each framing a different view of the surrounding greenery.

Highlights:

• Restored 17th-century farmhouse (circa 1600) in the hills of Arezzo
• Hand-painted wooden panel ceilings and multiple original fireplaces
• Separate stone annex with a guest suite set in a former chapel
• Swimming pool and a traditional wood-fired oven
• Mature English-style garden across a 2,100 m² plot
• Four bedrooms and four bathrooms in total (250 m²)
• Complete privacy, yet 25–30 minutes from local towns

A few steps across the garden, the stone annex adds around 50 m² of flexible space. Climbing plants soften its walls, while inside a living room and kitchen occupy the ground floor. Upstairs — in the very space where the property’s old chapel once stood — a private suite brings together a study, bedroom and bathroom: an ideal retreat for guests, extended family, or anyone in search of a little solitude.

Outdoors, the 2,100 m² grounds have been left to their natural elegance, with open lawns, established trees, and an English-style garden that asks little and gives much. A swimming pool anchors the long Tuscan summers, and the wood-fired oven turns an ordinary alfresco dinner into something worth lingering over. Beyond the boundary, woods and streams stretch into the distance, and the silence does the rest.

For all its sense of seclusion, the farmhouse is far from cut off. Nearby towns are 25–30 minutes away, the art city of Arezzo is within easy reach, and the airports of Florence and Perugia each sit roughly one to one-and-a-half hours out, with Rome about three hours by road.
