Ulisse’s Residence is presented in pristine condition following a meticulous restoration completed in 2005. The property boasts superior construction quality and refined finishes. The roof is stable and well-maintained, free from any deterioration, reflecting the careful attention dedicated to extraordinary maintenance over the years. The interior spaces are characterized by optimal rationality and functionality, with a layout that enhances the flow and livability of the rooms. The handmade terracotta floors, emblematic of local tradition, have been carefully restored, featuring smooth, leveled surfaces, while the ceilings partially reveal characteristic wooden beams with terracotta tiles and partly showcase brick vaults with exposed brickwork—elements that create a warm and inviting ambiance. The interior walls are finished with traditional lime plaster, painted in warm and luminous tones, all impeccably restored and preserved. The finishes include wooden window frames with thermal glass, providing excellent insulation, complemented by decorative wrought iron grilles and internal shutters, also restored using high-quality materials. There are six bathrooms in total, elegantly outfitted with coordinated modern finishes, designer fixtures, a combination of bathtubs and showers featuring functional details, and cladding in natural stone and artisanal ceramics. The masonry kitchen stands out with traditional finishes harmonizing with the historic architecture, equipped with hand-crafted solid wood furniture and accessories that evoke a rustic yet functional style. Outside, the finishing system is excellently maintained, with external walls treated with mineral plaster and breathable paint applied over stone and brick masonry. The garden is meticulously tended, showing no signs of wear or soil settling, while the outdoor flooring, made of local stone slabs, creates harmonious and durable pathways. Overall, the property strikes a perfect balance between tradition and modern functionality, with high-quality finishes and an excellent state of conservation that reflects rigorous ordinary and extraordinary maintenance work. Both interior and exterior conditions offer a turnkey environment, with technical details and materials chosen for longevity, providing both comfort and aesthetic value.

The systems were installed during the renovation carried out in 2005. The property features electrical connection, water supply ensured by the public aqueduct supported by underground tanks ideal for garden irrigation, autonomous heating system, alarm system, and video intercom.

The location, accessibility to major transportation routes, and excellent manageability given its size make this property a beautiful prestigious farmhouse, ideal both as a primary residence and as a second home for enjoying holidays in one of Tuscany’s most enchanting areas.
