Nestled among the hills of Chianti Classico, in a strategic location between Siena and Florence, this magnificent estate extends over approx. 835 sqm and is arranged like a small hamlet surrounded by greenery. The main farmhouse, dating back to the 18th century, consists on the ground floor of a reception area with front desk and office, a bright winter garden, and a hallway leading to the restaurant area, which features spacious dining rooms and a large professional kitchen. On the first floor are 7 guest rooms dedicated to the hospitality business, all elegantly furnished and equipped with en-suite bathrooms. Also on this level is the private owner’s apartment, consisting of a dining room with open-plan kitchen, 2 bedrooms, and 2 bathrooms. A spacious cellar completes the building. Facing the farmhouse is an ancient building currently converted into a theatre, a versatile and truly unique space. It features a large event hall with two bathrooms and an additional service room, ideal for ceremonies, yoga sessions, or as a luxurious living and entertaining area. Along one side of the same building, two suites have been created, each consisting of a sitting room, bedroom, and bathroom. A short distance away stands the guesthouse, converted from a former barn and arranged over two floors. It is entirely dedicated to guest accommodation and divided into 4 large bedrooms, each with private bathroom. Altogether, the estate offers 15 bedrooms and 18 bathrooms. The outdoor areas are one of the highlights of the property and extend across approximately 11.5 hectares. Between the buildings lies a beautiful historic stone-paved courtyard, the perfect setting for outdoor events and receptions. The private park is filled with fruit trees and aromatic plants and includes an exclusive 12 x 6 mt. swimming pool with stone solarium and shaded pergola. The remaining land includes an organic olive grove in full production with approximately 900 trees, arable land, mixed woodland, and a valuable natural truffle ground used for harvesting white truffles. The restoration of the property was completed in 2020, with particular attention paid to the quality of the works and the preservation of the building’s original character. A significant part of the renovation focused on energy efficiency, allowing the estate to achieve energy class A3. Traditional Tuscan materials such as exposed wooden beams and terracotta floors are combined with modern technical solutions, enhancing comfort and efficiency without altering the historic atmosphere of the interiors. The heating system is autonomous and consists of radiators powered by a 20 kW photovoltaic system with storage batteries, as well as a wood-fired heating plant. The property also features two charging stations for electric vehicles. Water supply is provided by both the public aqueduct and a private well. The windows are fitted with double glazing for improved thermal and acoustic insulation. Additional amenities include air conditioning with heat pump technology and Starlink Internet connection.
This estate is currently configured as a refined boutique hotel with restaurant and event spaces, but could be also transformed into an exclusive private residence of great prestige, ideal as a retreat for one or multiple families.
