Medieval Castle To Be Restored For Sale In Arezzo, Tuscany

About the Property

In the hills between Arezzo and Anghiari, originally guarding the Valcerfone, medieval castle to be restored for sale. The original nucleus of the property, consisting of a watchtower that is still partially visible, can be dated to the 11th century (as Repetti also writes in his Dizionario geografico fisico storico della Toscana). Over the years various buildings were constructed adjacent to the tower, which ended up being incorporated into the complex visible today. Then the church with the refectory and various structures serving the village were added, which, again according to Repetti, still had 350 inhabitants in 1784. The complex (approximately 1,400 m²) is now in a state of neglect and in need of major renovation. Over the years the buildings have been used as a “quarry” for materials, but the hamlet retains its original structure and the division of the interior rooms is clearly recognizable. Due to its historical significance, part of the complex is listed as a culturally relevant site by the Soprintendenza. If interested, the church present in the hamlet can be purchased by separate negotiation. The property has some flat areas adjacent to the buildings (about 1,950 m²) that could be used for the creation of a terraced garden. On the other hand, the rest of the land is mainly covered by woods (5.1 ha with chestnut trees) and small areas now covered meadow (1.1 ha) but in the past used for grazing animals.
