Talo osta in Rufina, Toscana

Restored farm dating back to the 12th century, set in a very quiet location on the hills of Florence, not far from the towns of Rufina and Pontassieve. Originally a castle owned by a noble merchant family of Florence. Over the years, the castle lost its defensive purpose and became a self-sustained rural hamlet. The complex has been recently restored and converted into an Agriturismo with six guest apartments. Special features include stone walls, terracotta and parquet floors, vaulted ceilings, wooden beams, stone fireplaces, pietra serena decorations, paved terraces and an original stone well. The apartments are split into 2 buildings. The first building of 435 sq.m is distributed over 3 floors with 4 apartments and offers a total of 7 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. The second building of 390 sq.m is also distributed over 3 floors with a total of 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. An additional building of 50 sq.m is used as a reception for guests. The estate covers a total surface of approximately 14.1 hectares, including a beautiful 4500 sq.m garden with a swimming pool and sunbathing area. This space is very suitable to install gazebos and canopies, converting the area into a very cosy and welcoming event venue. The estate also includes a huge 4.5 hectares of olive groves. The rest of the property is made up of woodland and arable land suitable for different crops.
