In the heart of Chianti Rufina, among the rolling hills northeast of Florence, lies this prestigious historic villa set within a centuries-old park. An elegant and private period residence where historic charm and unspoiled nature come together.

The property overlooks the countryside of Pontassieve and features a stunning panoramic swimming pool, with breathtaking views across vineyards and olive groves in one of Tuscany’s most renowned areas for fine wines and premium extra virgin olive oil.

Entering through the upper entrance gate, you are welcomed into a spectacular central courtyard, the focal point of the estate, from which several residential units can be accessed, totaling approximately 2,831 sqm. Created from the former stables, the guest house of approximately 593 sqm is located on the left side of the courtyard and extends over three levels. An impressive entrance hall leads into striking interiors featuring vaulted ceilings, exposed wooden beams, and a bright living room with a fireplace. On the upper floor, the living area opens onto the refined master suite. The residence is further enhanced by an indoor swimming pool, kitchen, and study.

The main villa, measuring approximately 988 sqm, has been meticulously restored to preserve and enhance its original architectural features, including terracotta floors, frescoes, and stone doorframes. It offers elegant reception rooms, a formal dining room, a spacious kitchen with a fireplace and wood-fired oven, as well as a private chapel. The sleeping quarters comprise 8 bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom.

Outside, the villa is surrounded by a beautifully maintained and fully fenced garden featuring a magnificent panoramic swimming pool overlooking the Tuscan landscape.

A truly unique residence, ideal both as a prestigious private home and as an exclusive hospitality retreat full of character, just a few kilometers from Florence. The villa benefits from three independent vehicular access points. The estate extends over approximately 41 hectares of land, including 3 hectares of vineyards, 12 hectares of olive groves with around 1,100 trees, and the remaining area covered by woodland.
