WELCOME to everyone near and far!
*TODAY'S VIDEO IS A SPECIAL EDITION of a previous property now heavily reduced!*
BENVENUTI to RESIDENZA TOSCANA, where I hope top show you some wonderful Tuscan and Umbrian homes, available for purchase now via private or agency sale NOW!
Today's amazing property is situated in the small historical village of VALIANO MONTEPULCIANO and overlooks some of the most spectacular vineyards of the Vini Nobili di Montepulciano, as well as, far reaching vista over the beautiful Val di Chianna and towards the hilltops towns of Cortona, Montepulciano, Monte Cetona and behond to Monte Amiato.
Valiano sits within the comune of Montepulciano and the province of Siena in south-eastern Tuscany.
The village was once a Feudal Castle, holding a strategic place on the Tuscan/Umbrian confines and was of great importance historically from the 13th century.
An important fair, 'La Fiera di Valiano" inaugurated in 1782 by the Grand Duke Leopoldo, takes place every year on the 10th August and celebrates Saint Lorenzo. It's main aim is to celebrate the historical cattle industry in the area with food stalls of the famous Chianina Beef, plus festive activities and cultural events.
Valiano also upholds the ancient culture of CONTRADE which celebrates the different divisions of the township, into CASTELLO, DOGANA,FONTE & PADULE.
It is situated within equidistance from the famous towns of Montepulciano, Cortona and the lakeside town of Castiglione del Lago on the shores of Lake Trasimeno. It is surrounded by the vineyards of the Nobili Vini di Montepulciano and therefore offers amazing access to vineyards and cellar doors.
The home itself runs over 3 levels, plus underground grottos.
It is currently divided into 2 full apartments, which could be used independently as rental properties or as a BNB type business.
There is the possibility to create a 3rd smaller apartment and there are vast cantina, storage rooms, garages and an attic.
This beautiful home of around 300m2 of living space and extensive views, sits amongst over 2000m2 of gardens, with a 30 tree olive grove, room for a large orchard/vegetable garden and plenty of space to create a wonderful pool area with terraces.
There is even an historical Water Tower of architectural splendour that sits within the confines of the garden area, adding great interest to the property.
The home is instantly liveable, however it would highly benefit from some updating in some areas and is ripe for a "business-focused" renovation, should the new owners be interested.
It retains some details beautiful details from a bygone era with magnificent original travertine staircases and other lovely architectural features.
This property presents excellent value for money in a highly sort after region of Tuscany and offers wonderful lifestyle and tourism opportunities. It provides wonderful outdoor and indoor space and privacy, whilst remaining attached to a historical village centre.

You seem quite lovely, but I don't appreciate being teased. Just be plain and straightforward and state the price in the very beginning. Thank You.

[@talesfromtuscany]

@@watthaile2053 I’m not a real estate agent and am asked to film homes. I always mention the price in the description or at the end, so people are more than welcome to fast forward to the end if the price is more important to them than the tour itself. Many home tours are presented this way on KZbin and the great majority of my viewers are more than happy to watch and discover the price at the end. It’s like reading a great book I guess, you always wait until the end! I’m sorry you don’t like my presentation style but thank you for watching 🥰♥️🙏🏼

Worth Every Penny but you need to make It your own❤🎉❤

[@talesfromtuscany]

@@fredretteketet exactly! The vendor is very negotiable so I feel it’s an absolute bargain at this stage and someone could renovate parts of it at a time, if they weren’t in a hurry as it’s very liveable immediately. Thank you so much for your comments! 🥰🤗🙏🏼

[@SteveL2012]

Great video, but the price is still high given how disjointed the various spaces are-not convinced that it works as a single family home, without a LOT of remodeling at substantial cost.

[@talesfromtuscany]

Thanks Steve. It was part of the original castle, so it was probably divided very differently over the centuries. It then became a convent in the 1700s...lots of changes! The point is that for the reduction that has happened, it offers someone a substantial space on a very large parcel of land in a very special location. The value is there regardless of the work to be done. Fortunately the building is in excellent condition, with new roof and no major issues. I lived in a large family home with 2 kitchens all my life, as Italian families often do that. It worked very well and as children, we loved it! Great for visiting family or parties as well! I can see endless opportunities! By the way, we did a previous study for a client on remodelling and the costs weren't as high as you may think! 😃☺

[@cmp7777CeliaP]

500,000 is way over priced . I could buy several homes in Southern Italy for that price

[@talesfromtuscany]

That’s fair enough. It’s like comparing chalk and cheese. It’s not overpriced. It’s priced for what it is and where it’s located. No comparison necessary.

[@LS-mp7co]

LOL you could make the money selling the fresh pressed olive oil to the USA. People love those olive oil clubs where they get the oil the same week its pressed. They pay large amounts per bottle for that. In the US it's a luxury as most of our oil in the stores is already spoiled and old by the time it gets here. Once you get the fresh stuff you will pay whatever is needed before going back.

You should state the price on your video up front verbally and in print, so people don't waste time looking for things outside their qualifications.

I have told the price and written the price in the video. I think you have obviously missed it. I always tell and write the price.

I would also like to see properties on the outskirts of town away from other buildings and not huge homes. If those are anything that you can show, it would be much appreciated for a lot less price than this one❤

Hello Teresa, I have shown other homes in various parts of Tuscany ranging from a tiny 33,000Euro upwards, so I do try to show a varied range for all budgets and tastes. It just depends on what is offered to me. I will be returning to filming homes in May as I am not physically well at the moment. I hope you join us when I return. Thank you 🥰🤗

@@talesfromtuscany I’m very sorry to hear that you’re not well. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers💕🙏😊 I hope you did not think I was being critical. I’m not, I’m just having a hard time finding homes that are a little bit on the smaller side that are in the countryside with a small amount of property. I want to move to Italy , and thinking of areas from Tuscany upward into Piedmont. Im looking for a “smaller ” home /farm which I’m not really sure how to classify a small home there?!? Something with views looking down towards a town but not super close, that gives me a little bit of my own land to be able to put a few orchard trees in and do my own vegetable gardening. I will keep looking and wish you well. Please think I may have something small comes up. Thank you for all you do.💕

[@heathercooper6963]

This is a fantastic property for $500k, let alone under that price. I'm nowhere near ready to purchase abroad yet but for those of us outside Italy and Europe, are there people who take care of the vineyard and olive grove or does the family do that?

[@talesfromtuscany]

Thank you so much Heather! It’s an excellent “value for money” property considering its history and location. There is no attached vineyard as it overlooks the Montepulciano Nobile vineyards which are separately owned. Your olive trees are up to you to care for or you can pay a gardener to tend to them if you wish. It’s totally up to you as the owner. Thank you so much for watching! ♥️🇮🇹

[@ferencgabor1363]

Well, nice but Sorry, 500.000€ and you have to renovate the house completely!

[@MelaniaX-l2g]

A price for foreigners. People use the word "Tuscany" to hike up the price, when in reality there are many beautiful cheap places in Tuscany.

[@talesfromtuscany]

No one has hiked up the price. I live in Tuscany myself and the prices have always been higher in certain areas. That’s just real estate and location counts. Many people see this as excellent value for the area it’s in. Over 2000m2 of land with an olive grove, within the Montepulciano vineyard area plus over 300m2 of historic house, is significant.

[@patcardiff2563]

My sister lived in Pulciano a few years ago

Look at the whole property, I think it's pretty reasonable.

Why do some of you feel you have to give your opinions on what can be done to which space or room. It frustrates me to no end.

[@thewatchcommunity5894]

This is in my mind around 300 K as is...

[@talesfromtuscany]

Thank you for you opinion. I think you have to understand the value of over 2000m2 of land in this area of Tuscany, with an olive grove, to then understand the value of a large historical home on a parcel that size. It is all reflected in the price. 🤗☺

[@everythingtraumaic5069]

where is the price and its reduction?

[@kathycappelli3468]

Still way overpriced for the amount of renovation needed. A money pit.

[@talesfromtuscany]

For Tuscan prices in this location it is not overpriced at all. Several agents have done appraisals on this building and all come up with the same valuation. You have to understand the land values, (olive grove included) as well as the square metrage of the home plus its historical value.
