Charming Ancient Farmhouse With Two Barns, Land With Olive Grove In The Heart Of Chianti Classico

In the heart of Chianti Storico, a rare farmhouse has preserved its original essence, untouched by renovation. This ancient stone structure dates back to the eleventh century, confirmed by official documents, and reflects a time when life was closely connected to the land.

Surrounding the property are Etruscan artifacts dating back to 600 BC, studied by the Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei in 1929. These findings suggest an even older settlement, adding a profound and mysterious dimension to this remarkable property.

The road leading to the house is one of the most beautiful in Chianti, offering a true journey into the heart of this region, filled with significant castles. Upon arrival, you are greeted by an authentic atmosphere that transports visitors to another era. Here, time appears to slow down, and every corner reveals a captivating story.

The main farmhouse, covering an area of 450 square meters, holds within its walls the traces of a history that has evolved over the centuries. The central part of the farmhouse was likely originally a watchtower, serving as a connection between nearby castles, and it bears witness to a rich past filled with encounters and border stories. Over the years, a residential nucleus has developed around it. On the east side, there are two old barns: one measures approximately 120 square meters and is in need of renovation, showcasing the ancient terracotta courtyard, while the other is about 50 square meters. These barns evoke the property’s agricultural past and retain a rustic charm.

The ground floor of the main farmhouse is a perfect example of traditional architecture: large brick and stone arches characterize the stables, warehouses, and cellars, while the covered loggia with the old oven still in operation is the beating heart of the house, a suggestive corner that looks to the past. From the second loggia, you enter the large living room with a fireplace, a symbol of welcome and warmth, which leads to the kitchen and the sleeping area, consisting of six bedrooms and two bathrooms. In the tower, an additional room, quiet and cozy, allows you to savor the history from a unique perspective.

Set on approximately 4 hectares of land, featuring around 130 olive trees, the property enjoys a prime location where nature, history, and tradition harmoniously blend.
The property is connected to the municipal water supply and uses LPG for heating, along with several wood stoves.

Just 12 km from Siena and close to Radda and Gaiole in Chianti, this property is easily accessible. Essential services, like a bar, pharmacy, restaurant, and petrol station, are only 3 km away.

It’s a unique place where the past and present come together, offering an authentic experience of Chianti.
