Completely renovated period building in the historic center, for sale in Sarteano, Siena. Nestled in the historic center of Sarteano, this building is a small gem recently renovated that stands out for having been the birthplace of Pope Pius III, nephew of the more famous Pius II, who gave birth to Pienza. Located a few steps from the main square of the town, it stands out for its splendid travertine portal carved with floral motifs and the coats of arms of the Todeschini-Piccolomini family . The interior, completely renovated, welcomes with warmth from the entrance. Design pieces and antique furniture blend perfectly, giving life to an enveloping and reassuring mix played on the natural colors of the earth, thanks to the beige tones of the travertine floors, the white of the walls, and the direct and reflected light that pervades all the rooms. On 4 levels, it hosts three large suites on the two upper floors, with bathrooms to pamper yourself in the luxury of chromotherapy, soundproofed and air-conditioned; a reception area on the ground floor and a living/relaxation area created in the ancient cellars, where a cave has been brought to light that appears to have been an ancient secret passage that led to the castle, today admirable from a suggestive glass floor. Very bright even on the lower floors, thanks to a happy position and the specially designed openings, it is embellished by the works of art of a local contemporary artist and by many books on art, history, and narrative. The spaces are organized in such a way as to allow you to enjoy the right privacy even in the shared living area, thanks to intimate corners and versatile solutions. Currently used as a hospitality facility, the building is also an excellent investment as a private home, as it easily allows you to increase the number of rooms by dividing the current ones. A stone's throw from the famous thermal pools, it is a unique and rare opportunity to purchase to live between Val d'Orcia and Valdichiana, two of the areas that arouse the most interest in the foreign market.
