Description
Charming castle located in a context of great beauty and uniqueness in the prestigious territory of the Sienese Classic Chianti, in an elevated position, enjoys breathtaking views of the surrounding hills.
Built in white stone around the year 1000, it became the property of the Baroni Ricasoli since 1100, who used its strategic position as a fortress during the conflict between Guelefi and Ghibellini. Today, the village is one of the best preserved examples of a medieval fortified village being mostly inhabited by local people who with great respect and affection keep the village in excellent condition.
The property extends from the borders of the village to the surrounding woods and olive groves. It includes the main building of the castle, which is spread over an area of 900 m2 includes a tower which dominates the surrounding territory, a derisory church of about 250 m2 used as an artistic studio, an outbuilding of 80 m2, a cellar of 190 m2, a swimming pool with panoramic views of 16x8 square meters and a garage of 60 m2. The land covers three hectares which include olive groves and agricultural land and there are two private accesses, one pedestrian from the village and one from the private garden of the castle with electric gate in wrought iron.
The main building is on four levels. From the main entrance, accessible from the village, you enter the main room, connected to an ancient staircase that leads to the upper floors and the tower. On the first floor there is a large kitchen with direct access to the garden and a stone solarium. Furthermore, there is a small independent apartment with a kitchen-living room with fireplace, a bedroom and a bathroom. On the second floor there are three rooms, two of which have a fireplace, a library with fireplace and a large room with en-suite bathroom.
On the third floor, there are three more bedrooms, all with en-suite bathroom. Finally, on the fourth floor, in the tower, there is the main bedroom with access to a panoramic terrace that offers a spectacular 360 degree view of the Chianti.
Outside, the garden extends for about 300 m2, leading to the panoramic pool, nestled in rocks and travertine. The outbuilding, renovated in the 90s, is located between the castle and the pool, and is on two levels with two large rooms with fireplace and a bathroom each.
The castle lends itself to being an elegant private residence or a boutique hotel of extraordinary beauty.
