On the Chianti hills, in a very panoramic position near Castellina and Barberino Val d’Elsa, 52.1-ha estate with Agriturismo and olive grove for sale. The property, finely restored by the current owners, consists of rural buildings for a total of over 900 sqm that currently house 19 bedrooms, almost all of which are intended to accommodate guests. The land surrounding the farmhouses is covered by woods and olive groves.
Basic services are available in the nearby village of Castellina in Chianti (7km; 10'), while if you are looking for something a little more well-stocked, just drive to Poggibonsi (13km; 20'). The Florence-Siena motorway junction is also in Poggibonsi, making it possible to travel through much of Tuscany and visit some of the region’s most renowned centers (Montepulciano, Pienza, Montalcino, Cortona, San Gimignano...).
DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS, STATE AND FINISHES
The owners’ house (235 sqm – 2,527 sqft, 2 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms) has been created in the old barn of the property and consists of an entrance hall, large living room with dining area, kitchen, service bathroom, private office space and two bedrooms with en-suite bathroom.
The Agriturismo (709 sqm – 7,629 sqft, 16 bedrooms and 18 bathrooms) is a large rural building, the result of the union of previous rustic farmhouses, finely renovated to adapt it to the needs of guests. On the ground floor are the common areas for guests (two meeting rooms, restaurant with kitchen and outdoor courtyard for the summer, service bathrooms), the technical rooms with adjoining laundry, a large cellar and the administrative office. The rest of the building is then divided into six independent apartments (four on the ground floor, two on the first floor):
- Apt. A (68 sqm): living room with kitchen and two bedrooms with en-suite bathroom;
- Apt. B (74 sqm): living room with kitchen and two bedrooms with en-suite bathroom;
- Apt. D (27 sqm): living room with open kitchen, bedroom and bathroom;
- Apt. E (39 sqm): living room with open kitchen, bedroom and bathroom;
- Apt. G (61 sqm): living room with kitchen, two bedrooms with en-suite bathroom;
- Apt. F (243 sqm): entrance hall, large dining room with open kitchen, living room with fireplace, mezzanine library and eight bedrooms with en-suite bathroom.
Next to the farmhouse, just a stone's throw from the building, is a small studio apartment (13 sqm – 140 sqft, 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom) for guests, converted from the property’s old olive mill.
A large canopy, located along the driveway leading to the house, is used as a parking area for guests and mounts a 19-kWh photovoltaic system on the roof, which provides much of the house's energy requirements.
EXTERIOR
The property is surrounded by a well-kept garden of 8,000 sqm with decorative plants, hedges and flowers that add colors in fine weather. Not far from the farmhouse, in a more private position, is the 12 × 5 m swimming pool with stone sunbathing area and views of the surrounding hills and facing west to enjoy breathtaking sunsets on summer evenings.
The rest of the estate is mainly covered by woodland (36.2 ha) that provides great privacy and allows for walks and hikes to discover nature. On an agricultural level, there is a large olive grove (7.6 ha) and large portions of arable land (7.3 ha) that could be used to plant a vineyard, given the area’s great predisposition to viticulture, practiced since ancient times.
