On the hills of Chianti Pisano, luxurious 19th-century manorial villa for sale. The property includes a guesthouse and various outbuildings, as well as a swimming pool, tennis court, bocce court and a 4-hectare wooded park with woods, gardens and parking for 20 cars. The property is completely renovated and equipped with modern amenities.
The property is located in an area dotted with historic villas, about 700 m from a small town where basic services can be found (minimarket, pharmacy, bakery, bar, restaurant, banks). Renowned art cities such as Pisa, San Gimignano, Lucca and Florence can be reached in about an hour, while Pisas international airport and the sea are both a half-hour drive away.
DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS
The villa (765 sqm 8,231 sqft, 6 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms) is on three levels, composed as follows:
- Ground floor: large entrance hall, living room with imposing fireplace, dining room, kitchen, dining room with fireplace, breakfast room, bathroom, utility room and laundry room. All areas have direct access to the outside. In almost all the rooms in the living and sleeping areas, there are early 20th-century grit and colorful cement tiles.
- First floor: living room with glass windows and view of the Lari Castle and five master bedrooms with private bathroom;
- Second floor: small bedroom, service bathroom and staircase leading to the turret.
The villa dates back to the beginning of the 19th century. In 1920 the building was extended with the construction of the turret and the right wing with terrace on the first floor. In addition, both the interior and exterior were enriched with Post-Art-Nouveau details and decorations. The villa was then carefully renovated in the early 2000s and was equipped with new electrical, plumbing, heating and cooling systems, as well as sanitary facilities. Almost all of the 1920s floors made of grit as well as the colored cement tiles have been retained.
The outbuilding (202 sqm 2,174 sqft, 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms) is on two levels:
- Ground floor: large garage and room that can be used as a lemon house/storage room;
- First floor: kitchen, living/dining room, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, two storage rooms and terrace.
Next to the building is another small warehouse (16 sqm 172 sqft), very convenient for storing tools and instruments.
The changing room of the tennis court (16 sqm 172 sqft) includes an entrance hall, two showers and a service bathroom. The changing rooms of the swimming pool (75 sqm 807 sqft), on the other hand, consist of basement rooms that include a large entrance hall, two showers, WC and technical room.
A wooden shed (26 sqm 280 sqft) was built a few steps away from the villa, next to the olive trees, as a support for the solar thermal system.
EXTERIOR
The buildings are surrounded by 4.0 hectares (9.9 acres) of land, covered by a lush park planted with trees and fenced for approximately 15,000 sqm. On the north side, the property is instead enclosed by a strip of woodland (approx. 2.0 ha) that protects it from prying eyes and noise.
The villa is accessed via a wide tree-lined driveway that leads to the parking areas (up to twenty parking spaces). At the rear of the villa is a barbecue and a wood-burning oven, while next to it is the formal garden with ornamental plants and a gazebo, ideal for al fresco dining.
The 12 5 m swimming pool, which is located directly in front of the house, is heated by solar panels and surrounded by a sunbathing area that enjoys excellent privacy. In a secluded location is the tennis court, which is equipped with night lighting and changing rooms.
The bocce court next to the villa is also equipped with lighting so that it can also be used in the evening.
