Fascinating 17th-century villa with rural hamlet surrounded by 116 hectares of land with hunting reserve in addition to three swimming pools and two ponds located in the area of San Gimignano, precisely in Gambassi Terme and fully enjoys a wonderful panoramic view of the Tuscan hills. Description The property is located along the ancient Via Francigena, in a panoramic position, and consists of the main villa and its ancient rural hamlet with agritourism activities. It features 7 buildings and 81 beds. The villa was built in the 1600s by the senatorial Rinuccini family of Florence, both to live in during the warmer months of the year and for the administration of the estates they had acquired. In 1998, renovation at the hands of the current owners restored the estate to its former beauty. Currently, the main building, with an adjacent secondary body, houses 4 housing units for an area of about 1600 square meters placed in a panoramic position to frame the small rural village that surrounds it. The villa offers hospitality in its 8 spacious double rooms and its large halls perfect for hosting ceremonies and meetings. The old carriage house, which overlooks the private garden, has been carefully converted into a ceremony hall while maintaining the old brick vaults. The hamlet is home to 15 other apartments, all with independent entrances and equipped outdoor space, arranged over five farmhouses with typical Tuscan architecture, a reception room with technical rooms and a coach house to accompany the natural hunting preserve overlooking the Volterra hills. The reception hall can accommodate up to 130 guests, while the garden can accommodate more than 250. Outdoor Spaces The total area is 120 hectares and is divided into two urbanistically distinct portions, one predominantly residential and one for agricultural use although physically not separated from each other, including 1.4 ha of pinot noir vineyard, 55 hectares of woodland, 55 hectares of arable land in addition to 800 olive trees and 1 ha for lavender cultivation. In addition, the complex has 2 lakes, the largest of 8000 sqm and the other of 1000 sqm with beautiful water lilies. The property is completed by three beautiful swimming pools serving the villa and the farmhouses, surrounded by greenery with solarium area and breathtaking views of the Tuscan hills. State to finishes Careful renovation at the hands of the current owners in 1998 has restored the estate to its former beauty. The rooms respect the style of Tuscan aristocratic residences, spacious and bright halls with original terracotta floors and coffered, vaulted or arched ceilings. Potential uses Perfect dwelling as a master and exclusive property but also ideal to continue and increase the receptive and agricultural activity perfectly started by the owner family. Location Strategic location in the heart of Tuscany, just 6 km from San Gimignano, 10 km from Certaldo and 15 km from Volterra.
Nestled in the heart of Tuscany, this property offers an idyllic blend of countryside tranquility and cultural richness. A short drive reveals the medieval charm of San Gimignano and its famed towers. Nearby, indulge in exquisite wines at Chianti vineyards or rejuvenate in the thermal baths of Gambassi Terme. Perfect for international buyers seeking heritage, gastronomy, and serene landscapes in a prestigious Italian locale.
