Une Ancienne Briqueterie Du XI Xe Siècle Avec Vue Sur Le Chianti

Set in a beautiful and tranquil position with sweeping views towards Chianti and Brolio, this unique property offers an exceptional blend of character, light, and architectural interest, arranged across two distinct buildings connected by a charming covered terrace.

The principal residence is an impressive square brick and stone structure, crowned by a striking chestnut-beamed roof and centred around the original kiln—an evocative feature that enhances the home’s character. The interiors are defined by generous open spaces, wooden flooring, and extensive floor-to-ceiling glazing that floods the property with natural light while framing the surrounding countryside.

The main living area is both airy and inviting, complete with an open fireplace and direct access to a thoughtfully designed feng shui terrace—perfect for relaxation and entertaining while enjoying panoramic views. The dining area flows seamlessly into a distinctive split-level kitchen, featuring a sleek steel worktop, wood-burning stove, and a practical dumbwaiter.

On the ground floor, double doors lead to a guest bedroom with its own bathroom, which in turn connects to a corner master suite. This principal bedroom is complemented by a dressing room and a spacious bathroom equipped with a bath, shower, and sauna.

A staircase from the sitting room leads to the lower ground floor, where a large two-car garage, a laundry room (served by the dumbwaiter), and a further spacious room with wooden flooring and floor-to-ceiling glass open onto the garden. Additional storage and utility spaces are located below, offering scope for improvement.

The outdoor areas are designed for both leisure and simplicity, featuring a striking blue mosaic-tiled swimming pool with a travertine surround, a vine-covered pergola, and informal gardens laid mainly to lawn. A covered terrace elegantly connects the main house to the secondary building, enhancing the sense of flow and versatility.

The secondary building provides flexible accommodation across two floors. On the ground floor is a fully self-contained apartment in traditional country style, ideal for guests or staff, comprising a kitchen, sitting room, bedroom, and bathroom. The first floor, accessed via an external staircase, offers an independent office or additional bedroom with an en suite bathroom.

While the property would benefit from a programme of cosmetic updating and some remedial works, it presents an exciting opportunity to enhance and personalise a home of considerable charm, restoring it to its full potential as an exceptional countryside retreat.

Further features include an electric entrance gate, a carport, and a vegetable garden, completing this appealing and versatile property.
