Character stone country dwelling with superb courtyard, cottage, barns all in 110 hectares of private land for sale in the outskirt of Monteriggioni, Siena. In the heart of the Sienese Montagnola, just 5 km from Siena and 6 km from Monteriggioni, this character-filled stone estate sits within a vast landscape known since Etruscan times as “the ancient forest of Siena: its treasure.” A place where hermits once sought solitude and medieval life thrived, today still marked by Romanesque churches, castles, and centuries-old dry stone walls. Nestled in over 110 hectares of ancient oak and chestnut woodland, the Fortilizio del Bosco centers around a picturesque courtyard, framed by a three-story manor house with turret, a guest cottage, greenhouse, and former barns. Originally a rural nucleus with stables, the estate was lovingly restored in the 1970s by the same Italian family that has cherished it across four generations. The manor home exudes charm with terracotta floors, grand chestnut-beamed ceilings, and wood-burning fireplaces throughout. A central hall opens onto two reception rooms and a formal dining room with fireplace and seating for sixteen. The modern kitchen, with central island, connects seamlessly to utility rooms and a guest bathroom. Upstairs, eight double bedrooms and four stylish bathrooms offer comfort and light. At the top, the turret reveals breathtaking views of Chianti’s hills and ancient villages. The guest house offers four bedrooms and two bathrooms, with potential for updating, as does the nearby Guardian House and two small annexes. The landscaped garden, ideal for an in-ground pool, overlooks an olive grove of 300 trees and includes a 260-meter-deep private well. Entirely fenced, the estate offers peace, privacy, and versatility — perfect as a refined residence or hospitality retreat, minutes from Siena and Tuscany’s cultural heart.
