On the edge of a medieval village—one of the most charming and best-preserved examples near Gaiole in Chianti—stands this magnificent castle, a true gem in the heart of Chianti Classico. Entirely built of stone in the early 11th century, the property is rich in history and tradition. The castle (6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms), with its imposing tower, features a wide range of distinctive architectural elements and extends over four floors. The main entrance, accessible from the village, opens into a spacious reception hall with an original stone staircase leading to the upper floors and the tower. The ground floor also includes a large living area and a spacious kitchen, both with direct access to the garden and the sun terrace. Adjacent to the main entrance is a small independent apartment with a separate entrance, comprising a kitchen/living room with fireplace, one bedroom, and one bathroom. On the first floor, the property offers three elegant living rooms, two of which feature original fireplaces, a library with fireplace, and a large bedroom with a private bathroom. The second floor hosts three additional double bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, providing ample space and privacy for guests or family members. The third floor accommodates a magnificent master suite located at the top of the tower, with access to a panoramic terrace offering breathtaking 360° views over the Chianti countryside. Next to the castle there is a deconsecrated church currently used as an art studio, a wine cellar, and a private garage. Furthermore, just a short distance away, there is a charming two-story guest house (living area, 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms), renovated in the 1990s. The beautiful, terraced park, surrounded by cypress trees and Mediterranean vegetation, extends over approximately 4,700 sqm and slopes gently down to a panoramic swimming pool, nestled among rocks and travertine stone. The agricultural land with olive groves covers approximately 1.7 hectares. The property is accessed via two independent entrances: one from the village and one from the garden.
Although the property requires modernization, its historic charm and privileged location make it an exceptional opportunity to acquire a piece of Italian history. A unique chance to experience the timeless beauty of Chianti in a peaceful, magical atmosphere.
