On the hills of Tuscany, in the heart of the Brunello di Montalcino production area, small winery for sale. The property consists of two estates that include buildings (farmhouse and cellars) and vineyards (about 3.5 ha), respectively. The location of the property is very convenient, close to Montalcino and the best-known centers of the Val d’Orcia, and has no other houses nearby, which ensures privacy and confidentiality even in case you want to start a receptive activity.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS

The farmhouse (686 m² – 7,381 ft², 8 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms) is a rustic building in typical Tuscan style with well-preserved original finishes. In one corner of the ground floor are the old rustic cellars, easily usable for production in conjunction with the newer cellar, while the rest of the building houses two apartments:

• Apt. A (384 m²): entrance hall, living room, dining room, kitchen, six bedrooms and six bathrooms;
• Apt. B (82 m²): living room with kitchen, two bedrooms and bathroom.

The building is in excellent structural condition and needs only some interior modernization and finishing work.

Adjacent to the farmhouse, built partially underground and thus naturally climate-controlled, is the aging cellar (320 m² – 3,443 ft²) consisting of two separate rooms and a convenient shed for sheltering equipment.

The winemaking cellar (311 m² – 3,346 ft², 1 bathroom) is a large L-shaped building, very suitable for processing grapes due to spacious rooms with no structural elements in between. The building needs modernization and renovation but is in excellent structural condition.

Set atop a hill in the Val d’Orcia, in an incredibly panoramic location, hamlet with medieval castle for sale. The property (over 4,100 sqm) boasts numerous buildings that allow one to actually dive in what is for all intents and purposes a virtually unaltered medieval village. The buildings are in need of renovation but one could easily convert the complex into a luxury hotel with 37+ bedrooms.

HISTORY OF THE CASTLE

The castle is already documented in the 12th century as a property of the Salimbeni family, until it was bought by the Republic of Siena between 1250 and 1258. The keep became a valuable defensive position for Siena until the mid-16th century when Florence conquered the whole Tuscany and all the fortresses in the Sienese region lost their relevance. The hamlet became a farming estate, owned by the Piccolomini-Clementini family.

Situated in the lovely hills of Chianti Classico, in the heart of Tuscany, just a few kilometers from Gaiole, this luxury farmhouse is a jewel of a property available as a truly turnkey, fully furnished, move-in-tomorrow ready home.

It has been entirely renovated, creating a phenomenal, refined look for each and every room. It is extremely rare to discover such a wonderfully elegant home, featuring the finest quality standards with remarkable beauty and charm – all in the heart of one of the most beautiful areas of Tuscany. Its very private and quiet location are an additional plus for those seeking silence and quiet away from city life.

The 431-m² perfectly appointed residential space is wonderfully divided between the two adjacent structures with can be used separately or together and could also be utilized for exclusive rental income opportunities

The farmhouse (252 m² – 2,711 ft², 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms) is a beautiful rural building finely renovated and furnished, distributed across three levels each connected internally. When entering on the ground floor one is greeted by a spacious kitchen with fireplace connected to the dining room (slightly below). From here the hallway leads to a first bedroom with private bathroom, while two secondary doors lead to the laundry and the underground cellar, respectively. Whereas ascending the staircase from the kitchen leads to a spacious living room with veranda, all connected with the second bedroom with private bathroom.

The dependance (179 m² – 1,926 ft², 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom), on the other hand, is structured on two floors. The upper level houses a self-contained apartment consisting of gorgeous large living room with open kitchen and paved patio, bedroom and bathroom, ideal both as a guest unit and as a home for a live-in maid and/or house manager. The lower level, on the other hand, is currently used for storage but could easily be converted into a fitness area with a gym and spa.

The property features a beautiful garden of 6,115 m² landscaped in every detail and enhanced by a 14 × 7 m infinity pool with panoramic views of the surrounding countryside.

Coming out of the garden we then find 6.2 hectares (15.3 acres) of agricultural land consisting of a mature olive grove (1.5 ha), a small hobby vineyard (580 m²), small portions of arable land (0.4 ha) and woods (4.2 ha) that ensure great privacy and confidentiality.

This restored hamlet is located in the Chianti hills, in an outstanding and very panoramic position in the heart of the Tuscan countryside. Finely restored by the current owners, the property is a real gem that embodies all the typical characteristics of Tuscan rustic buildings. Most of the buildings have already been restored and include, at the moment, 15 beautiful bedrooms and elegant living areas. By completing the renovation of the other farmhouses one could reach a grand total of 30 bedrooms (or even more if smaller in size). The property’s 10.2 hectares of land are home to a beautiful Italiangarden and olive grove.

A notable historical fact about the property is that the Italian astronomer and philosopher Galileo Galilei spent some time in the villa, and the bedroom where he stayed still bears his name as a homage. He was, in fact, a renowned wine enthusiast and Chianti lover, to the point that at the end of his life, when confined in his villa in Arcetri, he took over winemaking as a hobby.

Perched on the edge of a medieval town close to Gaiole, this majestic castle is a historical gem in the heart of the Chianti Classico region. The magnificent estate, constructed entirely of white stone in the early 11th century, is steeped in history and tradition. It is believed to have been owned by the noble Ricasoli family from around 1100 AD, who used it as a strategic fortification during the tumultuous wars of the late Middle Ages. Today, the hamlet stands as one of the most captivating and well-preserved examples of a fortified medieval village.

While it requires some modernization and improvement work, the castle’s historical charm and prime location make it an exceptional prospect for anyone seeking to own a piece of Italian history and offers a unique opportunity to savor the timeless beauty of the Chianti region, serving as an oasis of tranquility in a magical, ancient atmosphere.
