Rural farmhouse for sale in San Godenzo (Florence)

Nestled in the unspoiled Tuscan countryside, in a magnificent panoramic setting in the municipality of San Godenzo, this charming estate represents an exceptional opportunity for those wishing to bring an ambitious rural restoration project to life. Easily accessible thanks to its convenient location close to the provincial road, the property preserves all the character of traditional Tuscan architecture, featuring beautiful exposed stone façades and surrounded by a landscape of extraordinary natural beauty. At the heart of the estate stands a traditional stone farmhouse of approximately 320 sqm, complemented by a number of agricultural outbuildings that increase the total usable floor area to over 420 sqm. The generous interiors, rich in original character, offer endless possibilities for redevelopment, making the property ideal as an elegant private residence, a boutique hospitality business, or a prestigious investment opportunity. The ground floor combines the former living quarters with the historic agricultural spaces, including a spacious kitchen, a welcoming living room, large entrance halls, two cellars, and a variety of service rooms. These include an impressive former stable, a traditional barn, storage rooms, and additional agricultural buildings that reflect the authentic heritage of the Tuscan countryside. The first floor accommodates the sleeping quarters with four spacious double bedrooms, a second kitchen, a bathroom, and bright connecting hallways. The true highlight of this level is the spectacular former hayloft, an extraordinary double-height space of more than 86 sqm, offering exceptional potential to create a stunning panoramic living area, elegant guest suites, or an impressive contemporary loft. An additional 25 sqm outbuilding is also located on this floor. The farmhouse requires complete renovation, with parts of the roof having partially collapsed, a condition historically documented for portions of the building. This makes the property a true blank canvas, allowing the future owner complete freedom to redesign the interiors while preserving and enhancing the original architectural features and materials. Surrounding the farmhouse is an outstanding private estate of approximately 40 hectares, offering complete privacy, breathtaking open views, and exceptional potential for a wide range of uses. The extensive land provides the ideal setting for agricultural activities, livestock farming, nature trails, or simply enjoying the peace and beauty of the Tuscan countryside. Close to the main farmhouse are also the remains of the original manure pit and additional ruined structures that may be restored and incorporated into the overall redevelopment project. Thanks to its generous dimensions, commanding panoramic position, excellent accessibility, and extensive landholding, this is a truly rare opportunity in the Tuscan real estate market. Rich in history and full of potential, the estate is perfectly suited to becoming an exceptional private residence, an exclusive country relais or agriturismo, or a refined residential development, offering the chance to create a truly unique property in one of Tuscany's most authentic and picturesque settings.
