Historic Chianti Property with Chapel and Annexes

Chianti Property. This amazing restored Chianti villa is located in a panoramic position, dominating the valley of Greve in Chianti, with its hills, woodland, vineyards, olive groves and typical villages. Florence, Arezzo, San Gimignano and Siena are all within easy reach and the nearby enchanting village of Greve has shops, restaurants and cafes.

The property comprises a 4 storey, 6 bedroom villa of 1,200 sqm with a large cellar and a consecrated chapel. There is an annex of 230 sqm which houses 3 apartments. The sale includes 4 hectares of land with 200 olive trees and a vineyard, though this is not currently in production.

With origins dating back to an 11th century castle, this historic villa has been enhanced and developed over the years and retains an abundance of great features such as its family chapel, its 11th century castle tower and its 18th century large rooms and frescoes. The whole ground floor is characterised by many windows with access to large terraces with 360° views of the surrounding countryside. Upstairs, the windows are made of hand blown glass and the ceilings and floors date back to the 18th century. All the rooms are bright and have their own distinctive style. On the first floor, the 'Bertesca' features parts of the defensive walls of the original castle with openings used for pouring oil still intact.

In 1924, it was one of 18 farms that founded the Consortium del Chianti Classico wine which guarantees the quality of what is undoubtedly one of the most renowned wines in the world.
