✍️ Description from the real estate agent

This exceptional restored villa in the heart of Chianti offers a rare opportunity to acquire a prestigious hospitality asset with established luxury rental performance and strong event-use potential. Set among vineyards and olive groves near Barberino Val d’Elsa, the property combines refined Tuscan character, panoramic countryside views, and proven commercial appeal, making it equally compelling as a private estate, boutique accommodation business, or high-end wedding and events venue.

At the centre of the estate is a beautifully restored 17th-century villa offering approximately 550 m² in total, including 400 m² of living space across two floors and 150 m² of attic space with conversion potential. The main residence includes seven bedrooms and six bathrooms, along with multiple elegant reception and dining areas, all thoughtfully designed to preserve the property’s historic character while incorporating modern comfort. Interior features such as exposed beams, cotto floors, fireplaces, and quality finishes create an atmosphere of understated luxury throughout.

Additional accommodation and expansion opportunities significantly enhance the estate’s versatility. A separate 150 m² annex currently provides a one-bedroom suite with private bathroom, while a further 300 m² annex has planning permission underway for restoration, offering scope for substantial future accommodation growth. There is also a 50 m² caretaker’s apartment and a private chapel, adding both operational practicality and event appeal. In total, the property currently offers nine bedrooms and eight bathrooms across the estate.

The exterior spaces are equally impressive, designed for both relaxation and entertaining. The villa is set within approximately 3 hectares of land, including landscaped gardens, woodland, and an additional detached olive grove with 250–300 olive trees. A large swimming pool, shaded panoramic terrace, outdoor kitchen, and barbecue area create an ideal setting for luxury guest stays, private retreats, and destination events. The views across the Chianti countryside toward San Gimignano further elevate the sense of exclusivity and place.

Currently operating on the luxury holiday rental market and hosting weddings and events, the property already generates high income and is specifically marketed with substantial guaranteed rental returns. Its strategic location near Florence, Siena, Volterra, and San Gimignano further supports its investment appeal, offering buyers a polished, income-generating Tuscan estate with both immediate operational value and long-term upside.
