Un Jardin Dans Le Chianti

Surrounded by the tranquillity of a prestigious hamlet in the Chianti countryside, this elegant stone villa residence enjoys sweeping views across vineyards, olive groves and centuries-old woodland. Originally part of the hamlet’s rural buildings — which today also include elegant Tuscan farmhouses and a 17th-century villa built by commission of the prince Strozzi — the property has undergone a careful restoration that has preserved its authentic character. Handcrafted terracotta floors, exposed chestnut beams and brick vaulted ceilings blend seamlessly, room after room, with the comforts of contemporary living. Arranged over two levels, the house opens on the ground floor into a spacious living room flooded with natural light through large glazed doors overlooking the private garden. This level also comprises an elegant dining room, kitchen, bathroom, storage room, utility room and another room currently used as a bedroom. The first floor, reached via two separate staircases that effectively divide the level into two wings, accommodates three bedrooms and bathrooms on one side, and an office and walk-in wardrobe on the other. From every room, the view extends uninterrupted across the Chianti hills, reaching the sunsets that capture the area’s most authentic character. The private garden is the true heart of the property. Elevated and enclosed by an ancient stone wall, it opens onto an uninterrupted view of the surrounding countryside. Roses and wisteria climb the façade, among terracotta pots and the shade of olive and cypress trees. It is an idyllic setting for al fresco lunches and evenings spent in the tranquillity of the Tuscan countryside. The property also includes access to a shared swimming pool set among olive trees, with a spacious sun terrace and changing rooms, as well as convenient private parking spaces.

The property is located in the municipality of Gaiole in Chianti, one of the historic villages of the Chianti Classico area, just a few minutes from Radda in Chianti. Siena can be reached in approximately 30 minutes by car, while Florence is about an hour away.
