Complete 326 sqm building with two apartments, income office, and courtyard for sale in Serrazzano, Pomarance

Serrazzano (Pomarance): 326 sqm town building with two 3-bedroom apartments, rented office, storage rooms, courtyard, and low-cost geothermal heating. General Description: In the immediate vicinity of the ancient hilltop hamlet of Serrazzano, in the geothermal municipality of Pomarance, an entire independent 326 sqm freehold building is offered for sale. The property is located in an easily accessible setting with convenient drive-up and pedestrian connections, combining the peaceful beauty of the Tuscan Alta Val di Cecina countryside with immediate access to everyday village amenities. The building structure, solidly built and maintained in good general condition, features a versatile multifunctional layout: two spacious self-contained apartments on the first and second floors, a ground-floor office space currently leased to provide immediate rental returns, two ground-floor storage warehouses, and an entrance courtyard. One of the strongest assets of this property is its exceptionally low running costs, underpinned by local geothermal district heating, ensuring uniform warmth throughout winter at a fraction of standard heating expenditures. Interior Layout and Technical Specifications: The building spans three levels above ground, linked by an internal staircase. On the ground floor, with independent street access, is the office space currently leased to an established tenant, comprising three private office rooms, an internal hallway, a storage closet, and a half-bathroom. Also situated on the ground floor are two spacious storage warehouses suitable for workshop space, bicycles, or equipment storage, adjoining the private entrance courtyard. The first floor hosts the first residential apartment, laid out with an eat-in kitchen, a spacious living room, three bedrooms, a windowed bathroom, and an outdoor terrace with views across the hillside. The second floor offers an identical generous layout: eat-in kitchen, separate living lounge, three additional bedrooms, a windowed bathroom, and a second open-air terrace. The building is connected to the municipal water supply and the main electric power grid; the first-floor apartment benefits from active geothermal district heating, which can be effortlessly expanded across the remaining units. Strategic Location and Usability: Positioned just outside the medieval perimeter of Serrazzano, the residence provides effortless parking and vehicle maneuvering without the typical constraints of historic restricted traffic zones (ZTL), while remaining a short walk from local grocery stores, cafes, and community meeting spots. Major local routes link Serrazzano to Pomarance municipal center, the geothermal district of Larderello, and scenic highways toward Volterra and the Tuscan coastline. This hybrid residential-commercial design grants immense functional flexibility: it can serve as a primary family home for multi-generational living, an owner-occupied residence combined with a ground-floor professional studio, or a pure investment asset combining guaranteed commercial revenue with long-term or holiday rentals on the upper floors.

For whole-building properties in solid structural shape, acquisition values typically range between €700/sqm and €950/sqm. The inclusion of an active commercial lease providing recurring monthly cash flows, combined with the rental potential of two three-bedroom apartments for permanent residents or technicians employed in the Pomarance and Larderello geothermal energy plants, yields an estimated annual gross income between €14,000 and €18,000. Balanced against prevailing asking prices and reduced energy costs enabled by subsidized geothermal tariffs, this generates an estimated gross investment return between 7.5% and 8.8% per annum.
