Charming cottage and guesthouse in the Maremma region of Tuscany

Fifteen minutes from the spa town of Saturnia, 30 minutes from the stunning villages of Montemerano, Pitigliano e Sovana, 2 hours from Rome and from Florence, immersed in the Tuscan landscape, this charming property is on offer. Along with the main property–a handsome stone cottage from the beginning of the 1900s–there is a guesthouse, garden and garage. The cottage and guesthouse have been renovated in 2023 and furnished with taste and care, retaining much of their Tuscan heritage with exposed stone, terracotta floors and wooden beams.

An ideal place for those looking for a refuge from the noise and bustle of citylife, who crave contact with nature, who can imagine having lunch outside under a canopy of wisteria flowers in the Spring looking out at to uninterrupted view to the sea, who can think of basking in the heat of the Tuscan sun in the summer whilst enjoying the cool breeze of the high altitude (650 metres), who can then picture evenings in front of the fire in the cold of winter with something delicious bubbling on the stove.

The cottage is on two levels: kitchen, pantry/laundry room, dining area and sitting room with fireplace on the ground floor; bedroom, a second sitting room (possible 2nd bedroom), and bathroom on the first floor. Attached to the cottage is a large storage area that can be used as a workshop or place to store garden furniture and equipment. The variety of plants surrounding this property is impressive: lavender, rosemary, sage bushes overflow the front of the property; fig and other fruit trees, grape vines, a stunning weeping willow, cyprus trees and a bamboo forest at the back. There is a terrace at the side of the house.

The guesthouse is just in front of the cottage and has its own larger garden and terrace and a very large storage area. Completely renovated in 2023, the guesthouse is a large open space furnished with a sofa bed, armchairs, dining table and chairs, and includes a kitchen and bathroom with shower. There is a separate garage. Both properties have air conditioning and heating units. Apart from a few personal objects, most furniture and furnishings are included in the sale.

The Maremma region in Tuscany is known in Italy for its particular breed of cattle, a breed of a sheep dog, its proximity to the promontory of chic Argentario and for hundreds of Etruscan sites. There, above the fashionable spa town of Saturnia and below the extinct volcano of the Monte Amiata, lies this true gem of a property on offer.
