Palazzo Caselli in Sarteano: the splendid historic building is for sale
Three very fascinating storeys, all up for sale. Beauty, history and authenticity enclosed between ancient walls with a hundred-year-old history.
In the heart of the Tuscan village of Sarteano stands a very prestigious building, Palazzo Caselli that belonged to the nobility. It dates back to 1400 and stands in the historic town centre as it stretches eastwards, in what Enrico Guidoni and Angela Marino called the Village of the Cavaliers in their work on thirteenth century local history, “Territorio and Città della Valdichiana” [Territory and Towns in Valdichiana]. To be precise, we are standing near the tiny square named after the 13th century Collegiata di San Lorenzo, currently being restored (Icerm construction site).
Palazzo Caselli has been accurately restored externally: the façade and roof were restored in 2017 by the construction company, Icerm. The entire property is for sale under the estate agent, Immobiliare Morgantini in Sarteano. To give you just a few of its “numbers” in detail: 600 m2, 3 floors, 15 rooms, 9 bedrooms.
“It’s very rare to find a historic building completely available in the area around Sarteano” – explains Roberta Morgantini of Immobiliare Morgantini -. In fact, over the years, the palaces have been divided up and pulled to pieces into various residential units. Palazzo Caselli is truly unique, which makes it an even more interesting property. A remarkable opportunity for investment and one to clearly bear in mind if you are looking for a building with these features.”

Palazzo Caselli: three very fascinating storeys
Palazzo Caselli is made of exposed, load bearing brick and stone, with well-crafted details in travertine, such as architraves, door and window jambs and frames. The hand-made floor tiles are laid facing forwards or in a herringbone pattern with a reversed band. They are still very well preserved in all the rooms and on all sides. The ceilings are all very high with rafters. The property is supplied with electricity, drinking water from the municipal aquaduct and methane gas.
The building has been restored externally. The internal spaces, however, require complete renovation. The building is ideal as a luxury private residence and excellent as a hospitality business.
You can breathe Sarteano’s thousand-year history amidst the village stones and the tree-tops of its countryside between Valdichiana and Val d’Orcia. Everything here is authentic and appears to be a dream: the house in the historic town centre, the quality of life, the landscape held in great respect and the renovated farmhouses. Whoever discovers Sarteano falls in love with it immediately: many have chosen to buy their second home here and for many this has turned into their main home! Sarteano is that authentic, lively, exclusive place you mustn’t let slip through your fingers.
