Rural Home In Pelago

Farmhouse with Vineyard, Olive Grove, and Winery in Chianti Rufina
In Chianti Rufina, a short distance from Florence and the center of Pelago, a farmhouse is for sale with approximately 16 hectares of land featuring productive vineyard and olive grove, a historic manor house, independent apartments, and cellars dedicated to wine production and aging. Surrounded by the Tuscan countryside, the property represents an interesting opportunity to continue the agricultural activity and further develop the hospitality potential related to rural tourism.
Residences, Cellars, and Production Spaces
The main part of the estate consists of a farmhouse whose origins date back to the 1700s and which reached its current configuration during the following century. The manor occupies the first floor of the building and is accessible via a characteristic stone staircase leading to the covered lodge. The interiors maintain elements typical of the Tuscan tradition, including exposed beams, spacious rooms, and the ancient hearth. Next to the main residence, there is an apartment arranged over two levels. The ground floor houses the historic cellars with orciaia, rooms designated for wine aging, and additional functional spaces for agricultural activities. A short distance from the farmhouse is the former hay barn, now divided into three independent apartments in addition to a room with a private bathroom.
Land, Olive Grove, and Vineyard
The property extends for approximately 16 hectares in a hilly context typical of Chianti Rufina. The land includes 4.5 hectares of olive grove and 3.5 hectares of vineyard, of which 2.3 hectares are registered under the Chianti denomination and 1.17 hectares intended for IGT production. The areas surrounding the buildings are organized as gardens and common spaces with trees and ornamental plants. In a panoramic and secluded position, there is an above-ground swimming pool. The property also includes a barbecue area, a bocce court, and a children’s play area. The estate is located within a wildlife repopulation area, accessible via a very short dirt road.
Agricultural and Hospitality Potential
The buildings were renovated in the early 1990s in accordance with the typical characteristics of Tuscan rural architecture, using stone, wood, and terracotta. While some updates to the systems are needed, the property retains a strong agricultural and hospitality vocation. The presence of productive vineyards and olive groves, cellars, and units intended for accommodation allows for the continuation of agritourism activities and the production of wine and oil, or the transformation of the estate into a prestigious private residence in the Florentine countryside.
