Property description
The property is reached via an unpaved road (2.5 km) that leads directly to the communal road from which one can then quickly reach Gaiole (5km; 15'). From the area you can then quickly reach all the art cities of Tuscany (Florence, Siena, Monteriggioni, Montepulciano, Pienza...).
Description of the building
The farmhouse (489 sqm – 5,262 sqft, 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms), dating back to the 15th century and entirely renovated in 2000, is on three levels. In the basement is a laundry room and storage area. The ground floor is largely used as a living area, with two sitting rooms, a dining room, the kitchen with veranda and exit to the paved patio, a service bathroom, a cloakroom and some storage rooms/pantries. At the far end of the floor is the first bedroom with bathroom, which can be accessed independently from the outside.
Going up to the first floor (from inside or outside), one comes to a large double living room with fireplace. From here a long corridor leads to three guest bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms. The external staircase leads to a small landing leading to a fifth bedroom with bathroom, totally independent.
The outdoor terrace next to the kitchen is the perfect place for dinners or lunches with friends, thanks to the presence of a barbecue and pizza oven.
Exteriors
The property covers an area of approximately 6.4 hectares (15.8 acres) in its entirety. Surrounding the house is the garden (1,290 sqm) planted with hedges, flowers and ornamental trees. A short distance from the building, on a paved terrace sheltered by hedges and trees, is the 12 × 6 m swimming pool surrounded by a comfortable terracotta sunbathing area and fitted with a small veranda housing a relaxation area.
Below the villa, along the slope and with excellent exposure to the sun, is the Chianti Classico DOCG vineyard (2.0 ha), currently rented to the close-by winery for an annual fee of € 5,000 (contract expiring December 31,2025).
From the road the gate leads to a convenient parking area (325 sqm) where guests can leave their cars: The property is in fact fenced off to ensure maximum security.
The arable land (1.1 ha) includes about 100 olive trees that allow the production of a small quantity of oil for private use and a useful pond for irrigating the gardens and vineyards if necessary.
The woodland (3.0 ha) surrounding the property, particularly on the north side, shelters the building from prying eyes and guarantees privacy and silence.
