Ex Mill with Pool – Historic Residence between Valdarno and Chianti
Among the green hills of Tuscany, halfway between the Valdarno and the lands of Chianti Classico, stands this fascinating former 18th-century mill, restored with great care between 1994 and 2004. The property, protected by the Fine Arts for its historical value, was the second of three mills serving the Curia of Florence, ensuring the daily supply of flour – particularly chestnuts and chickpeas – to the Hospital of Fiesole.

Today, the property is a unique residence composed of three independent apartments of approximately 120 sqm each, all featuring 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a habitable kitchen, and a large living room with a stone fireplace. The interiors retain the authenticity of Tuscan tradition, with exposed wooden beams, handmade terracotta floors, masonry kitchens with polished travertine countertops, and bathrooms finished in raw travertine. Handmade ceramics and natural brass fixtures add further character and refinement. It is also possible to combine two of the units to create a larger, more personalized residence.

Next to the main building, there is an independent annex of about 50 sqm, also fully restored, with an open-plan layout that includes a living area with a kitchen, a double bedroom, and a bathroom. A versatile solution, perfect for guests or staff.

Outside, the property is surrounded by a private garden of approximately 6,500 sqm, enriched with Mediterranean plants and numerous fruit trees. The highlight is the panoramic swimming pool, 17 × 8 meters in size, unique in its kind, built along the ancient path of the watercourse that once powered the millstones. To complete the property, there is a convenient private parking area.

The Surroundings: Cavriglia and its Surroundings
The mill is located in the municipality of Cavriglia, in a peaceful but strategic position. The town is well-served and offers everything needed for daily life: supermarket, pharmacy, banks, bars, patisseries, restaurants, laundromat, hairdressers, and an 18-hole golf course nearby. A short distance away are San Giovanni Valdarno and Montevarchi, with large supermarkets, sports centers, fashion outlets, and direct train connections to Florence, Arezzo, and Rome.

This property represents a perfect balance between history, nature, and modern comfort. Ideal as a private residence with charm or for those wishing to start or continue a hospitality business in one of the most authentic contexts of Tuscany.
