House buy in Florence Tuscany

in the heart of Chianti Classico, near Greve, this fine period manor is made up of an 18th-century villa with farm, chapel and annexes for total 4,000 sqm. The partial restoration of the buildings allowed preserving their beautiful finishes while completing the process would grant 34 bedrooms, an excellent base for an accommodation business. The historic buildings (villa, farm, chapel and warden's house) are located inside a 2-ha private park in whose center, right in front of the villa, there is a circular decorative pool (roughly 11 m in diameter). The period villa (approx. 1,300 sqm - 13,988 sqft, 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms) is laid out onto four above-ground floors: the first floor (also accessible via the double staircase in the front) and the ground floor have been carefully and recently restored, reserving the beautiful finishes. The roof of the villa has been rebuilt and thoroughly insulated. - Ground floor: ample entrance hall, living room, two dining room with pietra serena fireplace, kitchen, office, bathroom, closet, storage rooms and cellars; - First floor: frescoed hall with decorated fireplace, sitting room, living room with nice pietra serena fireplace, poolroom, frescoed master bedroom with terrace and en-suite bathroom, twin bedroom with studio and en-suite bathroom, bedroom with en-suite bathroom, three bedrooms (two of which frescoed) and three bathrooms (one with tub); - Second floor: currently in builder's finish, it is made up of nine rooms with six drainage pipes installed; - Attic: loft with 360° view. The central-plan manorial chapel, built in 1710 and covered with a dome, is located right next to the villa. The warden's house (circa 60 sqm - 645 sqft, 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom) is laid out onto three floors, with access from both the secondary road and the courtyard behind the villa. - Ground floor: cellar, storage room and small courtyard; - First floor: entrance hall, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom; - Second floor: bedroom. Garage, spanning 21 m in length, are located in the courtyard in the back of the villa, right inside the perimetral wall. The old farm (approx. 2,700 sqm - 29,052 sqft, 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms) is made up of a huge building laid out onto three floors: - Ground floor: to be restored; - First floor: keeper's apartment, currently inhabited; - Second floor: to be restored. The ample surfaces of the building would allow realizing several apartments to be used in an accommodation business. The villa is located near an old castle, nowadays almost entirely ruined. in Piante di Popoli e Strade dei Capitani di Parte Guelfa we have proof of a settlement in the area at the beginning of the 16th century. On October 17, 1460, a Florentine noble bought the castle, which remained in the possession of his family until 1858. At the beginning of the 18th century the villa was built, as we can read in the inscription located right above the entrance door: [:] A FUNDAMENTiS CONSTRUCTiS MDECCViii ([:] completed it in 1708). Above the tympanum, two stone angels bring forth the crest of the family. in July 1710 the central-plant manorial chapel was built right next to the villa. Works in the farm were ordered in 1777, as testified by the writing located, along with the crest, above the main door; fourteen years later the dome of the chapel was restored too: one can read RESTAURATA L'ANNO DEL SiGNORE MDCCLXXXXi (renovated in the year of the Lord 1791) amidst Neoclassical decorations. At the base of the dome one can see the representation of the virtues and the strength, painted at the beginning of the 18th century. The property was passed in the hands of several families before ending up, in the 1920s, to the current owners.
