In the countryside of lovely Lucignano, in a dominant position, you can find this unique Casale Leopoldino, nowadays something rare to find on the market. A “Leopoldino” building is a farmhouse typical of the 1700s, and takes its name from the Granduke Pietro Leopoldo from Lorrain, who promoted the construction of this kind of farmhouses. The floor plan is square or rectangular and its most typical feature is the tower on top, normally used as a dovecot.
The total area of the main building is 215 sq.m. on 2 floors divided as follows:
Ground floor: 3 rooms, a bathroom and 2 porticos
First Floor: living room, dining room, kitchen, 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 2 terraces. From the dining room, you can access the tower on top.
Beside the main house, there is a 70 sq.m. annex on 2 floors.
The property sits on a 5,7 hectares land, with about 500 olive trees, which give a special charm to the property, but also produce olive oil for your personal consumption and resale.
The dominant position, guarantees a beautiful view over the surrounding countryside and also on Chiesa di Santa Maria alla Quercia, designed by Giorgio Vasari. Though in the middle of the countryside and very private, you can reach the centre of Lucignano on foot, which is a great plus.
The property is habitable but it needs a few improvements, in order to provide it with all modern comforts.
Building a pool is possible, thus having your own private space, to be fully enjoyed, in the middle of the Tuscan countryside.

Lucignano is located on top of a hill, and with its distinctive elliptical shape with concentric ring roads, the fortified village of Lucignano is one of the most interesting examples of medieval town planning. Walking along the streets you will have the feeling of a nice game through an intricate maze that is resolved once you finally arrive in the upper area of the town, where you can find the most interesting monuments of Lucignano, including Palazzo Pretorio (now the Town Hall), the Church of St. Francesco, and the Collegiata.
Lucignano is part of Val Di Chiana: Medieval Val Di Chiana is still evident, albeit reshaped and reinterpreted by the inescapable passing of time, in its stones, scenery and myth. Testimony are castles, churches and fortresses spread here and there.
