Description
Delightful 9.5-hectare estate with vineyard, olive grove and two farmhouses used as agritourism, in a panoramic position on the Valdarno hills near Florence.
Description
The property has two perfectly restored farmhouses and the business is well established with potential for development. The main villa of about 435 square meters houses 8 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms. Entering on the ground floor we find a large living room, the kitchen with wood-burning fireplace, a spacious dining room with fireplace, service bathroom and a bedroom with private bathroom and exit to the garden. The first floor houses the sleeping area, consisting of a central living room with balcony that disengages 5 bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms. In the attic there are two rooms convenient as storage rooms. The 114-sqm annex houses 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and is structured on two staggered floors. On the lower level is the living area with living room and eat-in kitchen as well as 3 large rooms used as cellars to store the oil produced. The upper level houses the sleeping area consisting of 2 bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and exit to the private terrace. The building is currently used by the owners as a private home, but could easily be used for guest accommodation. Completing the property is the large 137-square-meter canopy used as a covered parking area and a laundry room made out of the old drying room. Next door, a columned shed houses a summer kitchen with an oven, grill and stone sink.
Outdoor Spaces
The property covers about 9.4 hectares set in the Valdarno hills on the edge of the Chianti region. The garden of about 4,400 square meters hosts large flat portions in which to relax on hot summer days, including a beautiful pool area with infinity pool and stone-paved solarium. Most of the agricultural land is covered by a large olive grove of 6.1 ha, located between 460 and 500 m above sea level: the trees, well exposed and favored by an excellent climate, allow the production of up to 1,200 kg of oil per year, with varieties Moraiolo, Frantoio, Leccino and Pendolino. The vineyard is 1.5 ha and the coppice 1.3 ha with plants typical of the area.
Condition and finishes
The villa is in stone and masonry, with a typical Tuscan look and partially plastered, while the outbuilding is all in stone. Inside, the distinctive features of the structure have been maintained wherever possible, but modern elements and comforts suitable for accommodation have been added. At the same time, all systems have been completely redone and a 12.2 kWh photovoltaic system has been added, which provides for much of the property's electricity needs.
Potential uses
Ideal as a main or vacation home for a large family and perfect to continue and increase the receptive activity perfectly started by the current owners.
Location
Strategic location, bordering Chianti and less than an hour from Florence. Services are available in the nearby village.
