Farmhouse piazza Ricasoli, Panzano In Chianti, Greve in Chianti

This historic country villa originates from the 11th century when it was built as a watchtower, which is proof of its exceptional panoramic position in one of the most thought after areas of the Chianti Classico area, 30 km south of Florence.
From the stone paved courtyard, the building is entered into a vaulted stone hall. On the ground floor is a spacious Tuscan-style kitchen and a dining room with fireplace both with high ceilings and access onto the south facing terrace and garden. Furthermore, there are a billiard room and a family sitting room all with French doors to terraced areas. On the first floor there is an elegant central living room with fireplace, a master bedroom suite with large balcony overlooking the garden and 4 further bedrooms and 3 further bathrooms, 2 of which are en suite. All materials such as cotto floors and chestnut beamed ceilings are original. Numerous personalities from the international show business have spent their vacation time here. Nearby there is separate accommodation of about 230 sqm, partially on two floors, with further 4 bedrooms, bathroom, a shower room, a large sitting room/dining room and a kitchen. Apart from the residential area are located the wine cellar with ageing and storage facilities as well as a direct sales room with stunning views.
The property benefits from wonderful far-reaching views and is surrounded by mature gardens and grounds including a swimming pool and a tennis court, an olive grove (which produces around 150 liters of oil per year) and a vineyard of about 2,5 ha with a production up to 15.000 bottles a year (potential of additional planting to produce up to 25.000 bottles a year), currently managed by a neighboring wine estate.
