Michelangelo purchased the classic Tuscan farmhouse in 1549, and the property remained in the Buonarroti family until 1867. A copy of the original deed signed by Michelangelo himself comes with the purchase of the three-story home. A ten-year restoration was made to the façade and interiors, which still include the original wood-beamed ceilings and fireplaces, plus a brick barrel-vaulted ceiling in one of the living rooms. With the rolling hills of Tuscany as a backdrop, the home’s stone courtyard is an ideal spot for dining. There are also manicured lawns, 200 olive trees to wander through, and an oil mill turned guesthouse.
