CHIANTI, south of Florence, San Polo in Chianti, an ancient and noble villa, once owned by the historic and important Florentine family of the Pitti. The main villa is free on three sides and is divided into two cadastral units. This real estate complex totals approximately 840 square meters and is located in a hilly area, composed as follows: - main villa free on three sides of about 650 square meters arranged over multiple levels plus the tower; - chapel free on four sides of about 50 square meters; - cellar of approximately 140 square meters located on the ground/semi-basement floor of the main villa; - surrounding land, partly agricultural, of about 18,000 square meters. During the late 1700s, the property was enhanced with frescoes and architectural improvements, as well as a noble chapel with a garden. An Italian garden and a wooded park with tall tree species were also created. The beauty of the exterior is enhanced by pleasant terraces, surrounded by flowers and plants, making the use of these spaces very enjoyable, especially due to its exposure with a wide view of all the surrounding hills. Inside, one immediately feels the prestige and rich history of the environment: the welcoming entrance on the first floor is highlighted by a fully frescoed ceiling, as is the first-floor hall decorated with frescoes by the Sienese neoclassical painter Mussini; the main flooring is in antique terracotta, and many of the walls and ceilings are frescoed. The main villa is composed as follows: - Basement/ground floor: four vaulted rooms in bricks and ancient stones, originally the entrance to the Tower of Baldovini and a large bathroom. - First floor: a fully frescoed entrance hall, a large representative living room of over 60 square meters with a pink marble fireplace from the 17th century AD with ancient frescoes by Mussini, a hall with a Renaissance fireplace in sandstone and wooden beams, a kitchen with beamed ceilings, two fully frescoed studies, a dining room, a bedroom, two bathrooms, and a storage room. - Second floor: a hall with a neoclassical fireplace in Carrara marble, a master bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and storage room, a double bedroom with frescoes, a large bathroom, a frescoed bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, a large wardrobe/laundry room with storage, and a guest/study room. - Third floor: a large study room with wooden beamed ceilings of about 55 square meters with a terracotta staircase leading to the Tower. - Tower: a double bedroom with a wooden beamed ceiling and bathroom. Noble chapel with garden composed of two rooms, including the chapel and sacristy, for a total of about 50 square meters. Land and garden: mostly consists of agricultural land and park with various paths with ancient trees; the property features a vast Italian garden.
