Description
Charming noble villa in Chianti Classico
This charming property is located in the heart of the Florentine Chianti Classico, a few minutes from Greve in Chianti, in a dominant position with breathtaking views over the vineyards and olive groves. To reach the estate you have to take a dirt road in very good conditions of about 2km. The property consists of a manor house of about 650sqm dating back to 1500, whose charm and distinctive characters have been preserved over time, various outbuildings, including some to be restored, for a total of about 2000sqm, and 30ha of vineyards, olive groves and woods surrounding the property. Currently the villa is divided into two apartments that can be easily rejoined. The rooms are large and characterized by antique terracotta floors, stone fireplaces and ceilings with exposed beams and rafters. From the garden and terraces, you can enjoy a wonderful view over the valley, with exciting views, especially at sunset. Adjacent to the villa, on the ground and basement floor, there is the keeper's apartment, a vinegar cellar with wooden barriques where there are still balsamic vinegar and bitters produced by the family, various warehouses and a cellar of about 450sqm in stone full of steel vats and wooden barrels where the estate's wine and oil were produced. An annex of about 300sqm houses an apartment on the first floor, which is currently rented, while on the ground floor there are various warehouses to be restored. In a panoramic position, there is a double-height barn of about 90sqm to be restored. 2 other buildings have recently been renovated, and both have on the first floor an apartment with 1 bedroom, bathroom, living room-kitchen and garden, while on the ground floor there is a room for the direct sale of the products of the estate and a restaurant with professional kitchen. From the panoramic swimming pool, you can enjoy an open view over the valley. The property includes a private chapel.
The property is located in the Florentine Chianti Classico countryside, away from the chaos of busy roads and surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, woods and open spaces, a typical Tuscan postcard view. We are about 30 minutes by car from Florence where there are all services such as airport, highway and high-speed train station. The nearest town is about 3km away where there are restaurants, bars or basic necessities.
