What a wonderful place to spend relaxing family time in, being creative, and catching your breath away from work. This lovely farmhouse dating from the 15th century is located in the municipal area of San Casciano, one of the most beautiful areas of Chianti, a short 30 minute drive from the heart of Florence.
The property is surrounded by lush greenery, providing a sense of privacy without feeling isolated. It offers captivating 360° views of the surrounding Tuscan hillside.
The house covers a total of about 600 sq metres and it is divided into several units.
The entrance is through a charming inner courtyard with a well and a wood-burning oven, ideal for dining outside.
A staircase leads directly to the first floor where the main apartment is located. This part is luminous and comfortable and measures about 327 square metres.
From the entrance, there is access to a spacious living room with a unique stone fireplace.
Continuing to the right we find the kitchen with its own fireplace, on one side, is a gateway room with a staircase leading to the beautiful dovecote on the second floor which is currently being used as a bedroom. On the other side, is the sleeping area with 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The rooms are airy, and all have panoramic views.
Returning to the courtyard on the ground floor, we find a quaint cellar, a laundry room, a storage room, and access to a second small apartment containing a bedroom, a bathroom and a kitchen with direct access to the back garden.
Bordering the side of the building we have the entrance to a further small two-room apartment. Continuing to the rear we find the wine cellar/storeroom and the caretaker’s apartment.
Surrounding the property is about 20 hectares of land – with 600 olive trees and the rest woods.
In the garden next to the property is a pristine swimming pool, with breathtaking views of the surrounding hills.
The house is currently rented out to tourists during the summer months. It would the ideal solution as a main residence or as a family vacation home, or it could be turned also into a small farm with olive oil production.
