Gaiole in Chianti, Siena (province)

Chianti

Situated along one of the most charming roads in the Chianti Classico, just 11 km from the beautiful city of Siena, is located this historical property which offers spectacular views of the surrounding hills with their castles, vineyards and olive groves. Once a convent with church, the property has been transformed over the centuries into a refined rural residence, complete with farmhouse, annex and barn.
A suggestive avenue of cypress trees leads to the garden and the main farmhouse. On the ground floor, there are two warehouses and an orangery with wooden oven, while the main entrance opens onto a large living room with fireplace and kitchen, accompanied by a hallway with laundry and bathroom. The original internal stairs lead to the upper floor, where are on the left side four bedrooms and two bathrooms, and on the right side there is an apartment with living room, kitchen, 3 bedrooms and one bathroom. A small and charming courtyard connects the main farmhouse to a delightful cottage with an independent entrance with one bedroom and bathroom. In the barn, we find a further apartment on the first floor composed of a living room with kitchenette, two bedrooms and a bathroom. Instead on the ground floor there is a large warehouse/garage for the agricultural machinery. Next to the main building, a shed serves as garage.
The renovation, completed between 1989 and 1994, obtained all the necessary authorizations for the plumbing, electrical and GPL heating systems with two boilers. Furthermore, a solar panel system has been installed in 2010 to produce hot water.
The property covers a total living area of approximately 530 sqm and is surrounded by large grounds with panoramic terraces, children’s play area, a large vegetable garden and fruit trees as well as 7 hectares of land with 600 olive trees in production, arable and wood land.
