Medieval castle with private chapel, to renovate in Montalcino, Siena Tuscany REF. MON123 In Tuscany, just 11 km from Montalcino (Siena), we offer for sale a 14th-century medieval castle with an octagonal private chapel and a large surrounding plot of land. Surrounded by hills covered with vineyards and oaks, the castle boasts an enchanting panoramic view of the Crete Senesi and the typical landscape of Montalcino, which is only 11 km away. A driveway lined with centuries-old cypress trees leads to the imposing structure, characterized by red brick and a height of 18 meters. The plan features two distinct blocks, with a central courtyard that hosts a well, while embrasures attest to its defensive function during the wars between Siena and Florence. After 1453, the castle became the residence of a noble family that expanded the structure, adding an octagonal chapel. Despite the passage of centuries, many of the original architectural features remain intact, giving the site timeless charm. The interiors preserve brick walls, arches, colonnades, and painted ceilings that tell the story of a bygone era. Currently, the complex has been abandoned for several decades. Although some reinforcement works have been carried out, a complete renovation is required to bring it back to life for residential or hospitality use. An approved project from the competent authorities is already available, designed to respect the landscape and architectural features of the place, with particular attention to material choice and decorative details. This extraordinary historic property to renovate offers a total area of 3,900 sqm and represents a unique opportunity to create: a luxury residence in Tuscany, an exclusive hospitality facility, and a venue for private events and charm weddings.
