On the hills of Chianti, in a small rural hamlet with easy access and views of the vineyards of Tuscany, renovated manor house for sale. The property (over 1,000 sqm) is currently used in an accommodation function, with the possibility of renting single bedrooms or apartments for larger groups. The 5.8-ha land surrounding the villa includes a beautiful garden for events and an olive grove (over 4.0 ha) cultivated with organic methods.
The property is located not far from a medieval village offering basic services (4km; 10'), while the villages of Barberino and Castellina are a little further away (6 and 12 km, respectively). The proximity to a major road makes it possible to reach most of Tuscany’s art cities in less than an hour and a half (San Casciano in Val di Pesa, Florence, Siena, Montalcino, Pienza, Montepulciano).


DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS, STATE AND FINISHES
The villa (1,028 sqm – 11,061 sqft, 10 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms) is a horseshoe-shaped historic building wrapped around a private courtyard with its own staircase.
- Lower ground floor: storage and cellars, various rooms used in the past for storing wine and agricultural products;
- Upper ground floor: reception hall, service bathroom, breakfast room with kitchen and three bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms;
- First floor: central hall, reading room with small terrace, seven bedrooms (with en-suite bathrooms) and three kitchens servicing the potential apartments;
- Second floor: attics.

The building is in good structural condition and is currently used as an accommodation business, alternately renting rooms and/or apartments thanks to a clever work of space distribution that allows easy amalgamation of rooms into independent living units.

The church at the center of the hamlet dates back to the 15th century, and in the following centuries the various buildings were then constructed, first among them the manor house (datable to the early 17th century). Initially rectangular in shape, the building was expanded with the addition of the two projecting bodies. Abandoned in the 1960s by the last remaining farmers, the hamlet was slowly repopulated, and this was followed by the renovation of all the buildings.


EXTERIOR
The villa is accompanied by a beautiful garden of 2,500 square meters, entirely enclosed by a small wall that provides privacy and shelter. This green corner is also very suitable for events and is used for weddings, conventions and corporate meetings. A 12 × 6 m swimming pool is set just 400 m from the villa, in a very retired and panoramic position.
Beyond the wall the farmland stretches for about 5.6 hectares (13.8 acres) that include a large olive grove (4.0 ha) and a plot of arable land (1.5 ha) that can be used to plant new crops or more olive trees.
Cultivation on the farm is carried out using strictly organic methods (since 1983) with full respect for nature and the surrounding environment.
