Chianti

Elegance and simplicity are the hallmarks of this beautiful property. The villa and barn occupy an elevated position overlooking the valley and are surrounded by a spacious courtyard enjoying the shade of Mediterranean pine trees. From the property there are fantastic views of rolling hills with olive groves and vineyards.
The ground floor comprises an entrance hall, a double living room, a small study, a dining room, a kitchen with pantry and an exit to the garden. The living room and hall have impressive, vaulted terracotta ceilings and both the entrance and the living room have fireplaces. On the first floor there are three double bedrooms, one twin bedroom and three recently upgraded luxury bathrooms with walk-in showers. The rooms on the first floor have exposed beams and high ceilings which ensure a cool temperature during the summer season.
On the basement floor there is a technical room with the heating unit and a large storage room. The beautiful semi-formal Italian garden overlooks the swimming pool which is surrounded by comfortable seating areas from which to enjoy the stunning views. There are a number of options for al fresco dining enjoying natural shade with a brick pizza oven and BBQ for al fresco cooking. There is a large, fenced vegetable garden and a plot with fruit trees. Bordering the woods is a cave which houses the gallery of bottles from the past years production.
In the outbuilding there is an additional bedroom with en-suite bathroom, a laundry room and additional storage.
In the old barn, which has been converted into a wine cellar, three delicious IGT wines are produced for a total of 2000 bottles.  The vineyard and cantina are tended in the traditional way, with grapes harvested by hand. Biodiversity is encouraged and you will find wild herbs and fava beans between the rows as green manure, creating an environment in which the vines thrive.
To the west of the property are hay fields and a stone building with its own water and electricity. There are excellent conditions for keeping horses.
