Rustic Country House in Val d'Orcia, Tuscany

Details

The stone of the main structure, along with the traditional tiled roof and dark wooden windows, immediately sets the tone for this rustic farmhouse of 500 square meters: a solid presence, rooted in the landscape, preserving the character of the Tuscan countryside without sacrificing a sense of proportion and harmony. The outdoor spaces naturally accompany the house, with surfaces of natural materials, a patio, and a furnished terrace for outdoor living. All around, the greenery and rural panorama contribute to creating a secluded atmosphere, filled with silence, light, and a slow rhythm. The numbers tell the story of a property with great breadth: 24 rooms distributed in a spacious and articulated layout, with 9 bathrooms serving the house, designed to accommodate a generous domestic life or representational use. The farmhouse is nestled in a private garden of 200,000 square meters, a rare dimension that amplifies the feeling of independence and allows for a full relationship with the outdoors. The stone construction dialogues coherently with the rural context, while the patio and terrace with wooden tables and chairs become a natural extension of the indoor spaces during the milder months. Trees and plants accompany the property without interrupting the openness to the landscape, and the presence of hills in the background adds depth to the whole. It is a house that combines significant scale and authentic character, with a composition capable of adapting to both a private residence of great charm and, with due consideration, a high-level hospitality project. Days here find their center between the open spaces and the house, with the freedom to choose a different corner each time to read, entertain guests, or simply pause outside. The terrace and patio invite spontaneous living of the landscape, while the expanse of the garden makes tangible a privacy difficult to replicate. The relationship with the territory also holds precise weight: San Quirico d'Orcia carries with it a recognizable image of the most beloved Tuscany, made of countryside, tranquility, and orderly horizons, to be traversed every day with a sense of continuity between dwelling and place. A property like this finds its value in the balance between size, identity, and context. The large stone farmhouse, the private garden of 200,000 square meters, and the setting in the territory of San Quirico d'Orcia compose a rare ensemble, suitable for those seeking an important residence in the heart of Tuscany or a representational base with an authentic relationship with the countryside.
