Colonica Barberino Tavarnelle

Historic Farmhouse with Barn, Land and Panoramic Swimming Pool

In the hills of Chianti, a landscape of cypress trees and olive groves frames an iconic view stretching from Barberino Tavarnelle to the towers of San Gimignano and across to the Florentine hills. Set in a commanding position, this property captures the very essence of Tuscany.

The estate forms a compact private hamlet set on a hillside, comprising the main villa—renovated in the 1990s and featuring original Tuscan stone—a guest annex and additional units arranged around courtyards and terraces.

Property Description
The main villa, arranged over three levels, comprises a principal residence and 5 independent apartments, each with its own private entrance, some opening onto the garden and others onto the glazed courtyard. Shared areas include a large reception room and flexible spaces suitable for a variety of uses.
The 270 sqm guest annex, a former barn renovated in 2008 and equipped with underfloor heating, features a spectacular open-plan space connected to a bright sitting room and leading into a large kitchen, ideal for dinners and entertaining. The barn also includes 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
Land and Gardens

The estate extends over 52 hectares, comprising woodland, fields and an olive grove with 600 productive olive trees and a further 400 trees requiring restoration.

The beautifully maintained garden features several relaxing areas, while the 12 x 5 m swimming pool with sun terrace is set in a sunny position and blends naturally into the surrounding landscape.

Immersed in the peace and tranquillity of Chianti, this historic estate represents an ideal retreat, combining the charm of traditional Tuscan architecture with the vision and potential of a contemporary project.
