Description

La Dimora Buonriposo is an exemplary estate set in the heart of the Val d Orcia, Tuscany. Founded in 1567 as a Franciscan convent, it later became a farmhouse within the La Foce estate of the Marchesi Origo, before a masterful restoration by a renowned Italian architect transformed it into its current artistic residence. The historic farmhouse offers warm, tradition rich interiors, spacious reception rooms, 8 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms. A truly unique panoramic view over the timeless Val d Orcia hills frames the park, featuring a heated infinity pool and a stone whirlpool. A rare example of preserved rural architecture, where history meets authentic elegance, silence and contemplation.

Dimora Buonriposo is an ancient stone farmhouse arranged over two levels with a total cadastral surface area of approximately 600 mq.

The property can accommodate up to 16 people, both for private use and for hospitality purposes, and is particularly suited for hosting events and receptions.

On the ground floor, the heart of the home is the master masonry kitchen with pantry, alongside an elegant dining room divided by a striking full brick arch. Two adjoining living rooms, connected by refined wood paneling and enhanced by a beautiful fireplace, offer spaces of absolute comfort. Also on this level are four bedrooms, each with its own en suite bathroom.

The first floor, accessible via an internal staircase as well as two external staircases, one with a loggia and one with a terrace, features a second kitchen and a charming library lounge with fireplace. On the same level there are four additional bedrooms, four bathrooms, and an elegant vestiaire.

The outdoor areas are designed for a lifestyle devoted to conviviality: a porticoed courtyard adjacent to the kitchen, complete with an outdoor fireplace and antique wood-fired oven, provides the perfect setting for open-air lunches and dinners; the magnificent pool area, with two pergolas shading an elegant 12 x 6 mt. biodynamic infinity pool, heated and finished in travertine/concrete; a 3 x 3 mt. travertine hot tub with panoramic views over the entire valley.

The farmhouse is set within a 15,000 mq park, harmoniously planted with fruit trees, olive trees, vineyards and lavender, groves and rows of oak, holm oak, pine and cypress trees, as well as a splendid 6,000 mq English lawn with irrigation system, a 100 mq vegetable garden enclosed by a dry-stone wall (hortus conclusus), a small cypress grove, and a large external parking area accommodating up to 60 cars.

The property also includes a spacious underground covered garage with w.c. of 210 mq., an ancient agricultural silo converted into an industrial laundry, and a further 12 ha. of arable agricultural land located in front of the estate.
