Located in the picturesque Borgo di Tigliano in the municipality of Pontassieve, this historic Torre House dates back to the 12th century and was part of the Grignano Estate for centuries. Originally a watchtower, the building was expanded over the centuries and, before becoming a farmhouse, also served religious purposes, as evidenced by some architectural features still visible in the current living room.

Tigliano is a small, tranquil village surrounded by forests, olive groves, and vineyards, offering views that stretch towards the Vallombrosa Forest and Passo della Consuma.

The property, free on all four sides and of regular shape, was skillfully renovated in the 2000s by the current owners and continuously improved over the years, preserving original architectural details while integrating modern comforts.
