Elegant residence in the Chianti hills

Nestled in the enchanting setting of the Chianti hills, this property is a secluded haven of tranquillity, where the only sound is that of the surrounding nature. Access to the house is via a picturesque, unpaved private lane, which winds its way through a vast olive grove, leading to a farm steeped in history and charm, a place where time seems to have stood still. The property is set within a spacious, immaculately maintained garden, featuring elegant pathways and a magnificent loggia with an antique fireplace – the ideal spot to picture a lavishly laid table, perfect for convivial al fresco dinners and lunches with friends and family.

The Main House, which immediately catches the eye with its architecture, offers a charming blend of the original stone structure and plastered finishes – a skilful mix of Tuscan tradition and the changes that have taken place over time. The main building is accessed via a picturesque panoramic terrace. On the ground floor, the entrance opens onto a large double living room, featuring a grand fireplace and a dedicated dining area. Adjacent to this is a further living area with large arched windows that flood the space with natural light, as well as a practical built-in kitchen, designed in a traditional style with a wood-fired oven and marble worktops, and a guest bathroom. On the first floor, the sleeping area comprises four spacious double bedrooms, each equipped with air conditioning for maximum comfort and served by three fully fitted bathrooms, all offering beautiful panoramic views of the surrounding countryside.

At the rear of the complex, there is also access to two additional independent residential units, each measuring approximately 120 square metres and fully renovated, ideal for guest accommodation or tourist accommodation. The first apartment is situated entirely on the ground floor, ensuring easy access even for people with reduced mobility, and features a striking vaulted brick ceiling, a traditional kitchen, a bright living area, two double bedrooms and three bathrooms. The second apartment is accessed via an external staircase which leads to the first floor, where there are a very cosy living area, an independent kitchen and a guest bathroom. An internal staircase leads to the upper sleeping area, which includes two bedrooms, two private bathrooms and a walking closet. The property is surrounded by more than 13 hectares of arable land, offering a unique opportunity to purchase it as a working farm, thanks to a productive olive grove with around a thousand olive trees, several areas of arable land and a section of woodland.

Even though it is immersed in the tranquillity of the countryside, the location boasts functional connections: in just eight minutes, via paved road, you can reach the nearest town, which offers all essential amenities, including a supermarket, cafés, shops, restaurants, schools and a first-aid centre. Within a few minutes, you can also reach picturesque and renowned villages such as San Gimignano, Barberino Val d’Elsa and San Donato in Poggio, as well as renowned wine-producing areas such as the Antinori winery.

The property is also located about 30 minutes from Florence, a city offering more comprehensive amenities, such as international schools, large supermarkets, Peretola Airport and the high-speed train station. The location is central and well-connected to other cities of art, with Siena just 40 minutes away and Pisa, with its airport, around an hour away; finally, for those who love the sea, the coast can be reached in just over an hour.
