Radda in Chianti

On the hills of ChiantiClassico, a short distance from Radda in Chianti, estate with luxury farmhouse for sale. The finely restored property consists of three main buildings housing 4 bedrooms, beautiful living areas and a wellness center with a 10 × 5 m swimming pool. The 13.0-ha land includes a well-maintained garden, 1,300 olive trees and woods.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS

The farmhouse (273 m² – 2,937 ft², 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms) is a stone building, most likely dating back to the 18th century and entirely renovated in 2014 with original and valuable materials, distributed on three levels. The structure was entirely recovered, maintaining its original appearance but adapting it to current safety laws. Strictly original materials were chosen for the finishes, purchased ad hoc or recovered from the old structure.

• Basement: large cellar with technical room, bathroom with access from the outside, small living room, bedroom and bathroom;
• Ground floor: kitchen, large living room with dining area, reading room, master bedroom with en-suite bathroom and bedroom with bathroom;
• First floor: office space.

At the service level, the house is equipped with LPG-fueled underfloor heating, air conditioning and home automation system for remote control of household appliances. At the security level, alarm system and video surveillance have been installed as well as electric gate.

The guesthouse (80 m² – 861 ft², 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom), is located right next to the farmhouse, but is totally independent and divided into two units. The first is a studio apartment with kitchenette, dining area, bedroom and bathroom. The second, on the other hand, is a convivial room with dining area and kitchen.

A small wellness center (40 m² – 430 ft²) has been created in the annex next to the swimming pool and houses a Turkish bath, Swedish sauna, Jacuzzi, bathroom and dressing room.

Among the olive trees is a small agricultural shed (26 m² – 279 ft²) to shelter tools used in the maintenance of the fields.

On the hills of Chianti, not far from Castelnuovo Berardenga and Radda, 102.1-ha wine estate with manor villa and hamlet to be restored for sale. The property, which boasts an incredible history ranging from the Middle Ages to the present day, offers great potential for receptive tourist development to go hand in hand with wine production: in fact, the farm exploits 28.5 ha of vineyards to produce about 130,000 bottles of wine per year.

The renovation of the various buildings (over 4,500 m² in total) would pave the way for the creation of a luxury boutique hotel in a very renowned area of Tuscany, less than an hour from Florence and Siena: the convenient location and beautiful spaces (both indoor and outdoor) would also allow the property to be exploited not only for seasonal rentals but also as a location for events, ceremonies, conferences and corporate conventions.

Basic services are available in the nearby medieval village (1km; 2’) while for everything else you just need to reach Siena, less than half an hour's drive away. Tuscany’s best-known art cities (Monteriggioni, San Gimignano, Pienza, Montepulciano...) can all be reached in just an hour by car.
