Hello dearest friends!
Today, once again, I’m taking you to discover a place that, of course, is in Tuscany. I had the chance to visit it just last Saturday, so this is a very recent exploration! It’s a place I actually didn’t know about, but a dear friend of mine introduced me to it, knowing about my passion for these kinds of locations.
I’m talking about Ville di Corsano, a rather unusual name, but in reality, it’s a small hamlet in the municipality of Monteroni d'Arbia, in the province of Siena. We are about 16 km from Siena, right in the heart of the famous Crete Senesi, a very special area of Tuscany with its clayey soils and rolling hills.
As soon as I arrived, I was struck by the tower located in the center of these houses—a structure dating back to the 13th century, which was probably once part of a larger medieval fortress that, unfortunately, has been lost over time.
I immediately immersed myself in exploring the area, observing these houses. Among them, I even saw a gentleman busy preparing his vegetable garden for the good season! Some of these houses, by the way, are for sale. I must say, they have been well restored over time and are in excellent condition.
These are also farmhouses that, over time, have been renovated and transformed into more modern homes—or even into accommodations designed for tourists who want to immerse themselves in this beautiful part of Tuscany.
If anyone is interested, the price for a complete farmhouse can reach 500,000 euros, while some converted farmhouses have been split into multiple apartments, with a one-bedroom unit starting at 150,000 euros. These are not exactly affordable prices for everyone, but one must also consider the unique setting of these homes.
From a landscape perspective, I have to say the truth—it’s a very beautiful part of Tuscany, as you can see from the photos. However, personally, I prefer more wooded areas, perhaps with more interesting trails from a trekking perspective.
Let’s say this cluster of houses isn’t particularly striking, but for me, it was a great discovery because I didn’t know this area. In my opinion, what really makes these places special is the landscape—it’s very characteristic and incredibly cinematic.
I hope you found my photos interesting, and I hope you get the chance to visit these places as well. Who knows—maybe one day, you’ll even buy a house here and live here for the rest of your life!
See you in my next post, and I wish you all a wonderful day!
