Description
This extraordinary property, nestled at the foot of the enchanting village of Castagneto Carducci, surrounded by the prestigious vineyards of the Bolgheri DOC, and just 3 kilometers from the unspoiled beaches of the Etruscan Coast, is one of those rare gems. With ancient origins, this building was once one of the most important mills in the area. For centuries, it served the needs of the village and surrounding countryside, fed by the natural streams cascading from the hills above.
After years of abandonment, the mill was rediscovered in the 1980s by a family of international origin, who fell in love with its powerful energy and history. They undertook a careful and passionate restoration that would span years-an effort that unearthed the original *Mill Hall* with its majestic vaulted ceilings, and uncovered architectural treasures hidden beneath the surface. Every corner of the property reflects the artistic sensibility and deep affection of its owners: handmade details, natural materials, and whimsical touches that surprise and enchant at every turn.
More recently, a second comprehensive renovation brought the building into the present day-preserving its historic soul while integrating modern comforts and functionality. Today, the mill houses a total of 12 double rooms and suites, many of which feature independent entrances and en-suite bathrooms. In addition, there are two service bathrooms for communal use.
Two fully equipped kitchens, designed even for professional use, allow for culinary experiences of the highest standard. The heart of the property remains the stunning Mill Hall-an expansive, atmospheric space ideal as a dining area, lounge, or multi-purpose venue for events, retreats, or celebrations.
This is not just a property-it is a legacy of craftsmanship, nature, and timeless Italian beauty. A place to live, to host, to dream.
