ATMOSPHERE by Fiesoli Homes : ”Castello Su Misura”
THE PROPERTY In the heart of Chianti, on a secluded hill overlooking the countryside as if from a natural loggia, stands a castle from the year 1000. It is a discreet presence, powerful but gentle, which has crossed the centuries to reach us in a new form: more essential, more refined, closer to the contemporary way of understanding living. Nothing was left to chance in the restoration that brought it back to life. Every surface, every stone, every color was chosen with care: to preserve the ancient soul of the place and project it into the present with sobriety and awareness.
INTERIOR DETAILS The original stones are still there, preserved and reinterpreted. The beams, the Gothic arches, the monumental fireplaces speak of time. But today, in dialogue with them, there is the artisan resin, the smooth surfaces, the clean lines, the open volumes, the lights designed to accompany. The 700 square meters of interior are divided into three main bodies: the master residence, the ancient tower with independent suites, the wellness area. Each space has been carefully redesigned: six bedrooms, eight bathrooms, spaces dedicated to conviviality and quiet , without a break between comfort and stage presence. The materials interact with each other: antique wood, satin metal, natural fabrics, material resin. Home automation is integrated, but invisible. The result is a measured, almost musical balance.
EXTERIOR DETAILS The private park, which extends for over a hectare, seems to amplify the elegance of the structure . Productive olive trees, fruit trees, shaded glimpses and visual openings alternate in a fluid, natural design. Everything is designed for living outside, in every season: relaxation areas, intimate corners, games for the little ones. The panoramic pool , suspended on a slightly lowered level, is an architectural gesture in itself. The grey seabed sculpts the light, the horizon opens up without obstacles. It is not just a place to swim: it is a space to look, listen, breathe. An experience to remember.
POSITION The location is rare: thirty minutes from Florence, among the vineyards and the slow curves of the Chianti Classico. The road to get there is comfortable, but then it fades into silence. You are close to everything, but really far from everything. The landscape becomes part of the house, enters through the windows, accompanies each day with a slower, more authentic rhythm. Siena, San Gimignano, Pisa: everything is within reach. But the truth is that, once here, there is no longer any urgency to go elsewhere.
A CASTLE, BUT MADE TO MEASURE It is a project born with a sartorial look, where everything has been calibrated on the sensitivity of those who will inhabit these spaces. There is nothing superfluous, nothing shouted. Only a continuous search for balance between matter and light, between silence and presence. It is not scenery, it is substance. It is not a castle that dominates, but one that accompanies . That leaves you space, recognizes you. It is a home, yes. Alone, on another level.
Located in Bargino, near San Casciano in Val di Pesa, this property offers easy access to Florence city center and countryside. It is approximately 30 minutes from Florence Airport and close to cultural landmarks like Castello di Brolio. Surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, the area provides a tranquil lifestyle with quality dining and outdoor activities within short drives.

Fiesoli Homes is a family-run reality dedicated to the art of choosing homes with care, time, and heart. Curated means more than selected — it means discovered through our own eyes, guided by a deep sense of place and beauty. Each property tells a story of Tuscan life: restored with respect, rooted in landscape, and imbued with the quiet charm of time. We don’t collect houses; we recognize atmospheres — those rare, authentic spaces that reflect our idea of living well, slowly, and beautifully in Italy.
