On the hills of Valdarno at the gates of Chianti, in a very private and quiet location, farmhouse with 36.3 hectares of land for sale. The property, expertly restored while preserving its original appearance, is a horseshoe-shaped building with a characteristic paved courtyard and a 12 × 6 m swimming pool. The surrounding estate covers about 36.3 hectares and includes a vineyard and a private lake.
The property is reached by a short dirt road (about 550 m) that ends in a characteristic tree-lined driveway with cypress trees. The location, while quiet, allows quick access to the paved road, and basic services are available in the nearby town (8km; 10'). The A1 highway interchange is about 40' drive away.


DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS
The farmhouse (603 sqm – 6,488 sqft, 6 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms) is a typical Tuscan-style building with stone walls and exposed bricks. Internally, it was opted to keep the style of the building unaltered with terracotta floors, wooden beams and masonry arches (referring to the original use of the ground floor as stables). Large windows, along with walls with warm colors, ensure bright and welcoming rooms.
The house wraps around a paved central courtyard, ideal for pleasant outdoor convivial moments in summer. The main wing of the building is on two floors: entering from the courtyard, one finds oneself in a large living room with a fireplace and play area. From here one can go to the reading room, a very cozy environment ideal for relaxing. A small hallway leads to the service bathroom and the corridor that, skirting the courtyard, leads to the kitchen and dining room in the other wing of the farmhouse. From the kitchen, one then descends to the basement where there is a pantry and a technical room for equipment.
From the hallway of the main wing, on the other hand, one goes up to the sleeping area where there are four bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, the master bedroom with a study corner and private bathroom, and a guest room with a bathroom located along the main staircase.

The guesthouse (147 sqm – 1,582 sqft, 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms) is a short walk from the farmhouse and is also a well-preserved and renovated rustic-style building. On the ground floor are the living area with kitchen, a service bathroom and a bedroom with en-suite bathroom. Going up to the floor we find instead two bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms.

Accompanying the farmhouse is a well-kept 3,600-sqm garden that houses a paved terrace near the dining room and the 12 × 6 m swimming pool with terracotta sunbathing area.


EXTERIOR
The farmhouse is located in the center of an estate of about 36.3 hectares (89.7 acres), set on a slight hillside and well exposed. Most of the property is covered by woods (24.1 ha) that provide great privacy and offer shady spaces for walking and hiking in the green. Immediately below the house a small vineyard (1.7 ha) has been planted to produce a small amount of wine, mostly for personal use.
Downstream of the tree-lined driveway leading to the house is a private lake (area of about 1.1 ha) that is used to irrigate the fields.
The rest of the estate is covered by fields and arable land (8.2 ha) that could be used to plant new crops or further expand the vineyard due to the good exposure.
