Chianti

The historic villa in Florentine Chianti with the manor parta in good state of maintenance and where there is still the small private chapel. This mansion with adjacent service part with the cellars and orciaie, immersed in the Sangiovese vineyards, in the place known throughout the world, the symbol of Tuscany, represented by the villas, cottages, vineyards, olive groves and cypresses-a true bucolic picture.
Description
The villa, dating back to the 1400s, stands in the middle of the property grounds, and upon entering the entrance gate, it manifests itself in all its beauty. Surrounded by the garden, it presents itself with the typical layout of Florentine villas. The entrance introduces into the characteristic uncovered patio with the buildings surrounding it, to the right the small chapel still consecrated and at the bottom of the patio the orciaia. At the bottom of the patio is the entrance to a wing of the villa, on the ground floor a small apartment for service people that includes the kitchen, a bedroom and bathroom. The stone staircase leads to the second floor that arrives in a large living room, while the corridor disengages the bedrooms, 3 doubles and bathroom.
The stone staircase from the patio leads to a characteristic covered terrace that through three glass doors allows you to enter this other wing of the villa, a corridor leads on the right to the hall with a characteristic fireplace still working, while on the right the large kitchen with adjoining living room, three bedrooms and two bathrooms.
Condition and finishes
The villa is in fair maintained condition despite the fact that the elapsed time has left its mark in some parts of the house, while the structure is generally in good condition. The old stone fireplaces, wooden coffered ceilings and typical Tuscan antique terracotta floors are of great value.
Outdoor spaces
The land pertaining to the villa is about 24 hectares, of which about 8 are planted with vines registered in the Chianti Classico register, in a part of the land there is an olive grove, while the part of the land closest to the villa is kept as a garden, in a part of which a swimming pool could be built.
Potential uses
The villa lends itself to be inhabited by a family wishing to live in the countryside but at a short distance from the city, in a quiet but not isolated area. Another solution could be the development of the villa as a farm/agri-tourism, renting out the rooms to guests and continuing in the conduct of the agricultural activity.
Location
A short distance from Florence, in the Florentine Chianti area known for the production of vines and olive trees. A dominant position for those who want to experience nature and be at the same time close to the big city like Florence and Siena, which are reachable in about half an hour by car. A place much loved by tourists from all over the world for the trip between wineries and small farms, not to forget about trips in the middle of nature.
