In the heart of Tuscany, near Florence, there is this extraordinary castle for sale, an ancient manor built by a noble family in the 15th century.
Positioned on top of a hill and well protected by moats, tall walls and turrets, this prestigious residence is rich in history and charm, surrounded by the picturesque Tuscan countryside and by olive groves and vineyards that allow this modern and efficient working castle estate to produce extra virgin olive oil and prime wines, aged in its ancient wine cellars.
