Description
Location
Pontassieve, easily reachable in half an hour from Florence, represents a prestigious place in the Tuscan countryside, a territory surrounded by rivers that descend from the ridges to the valley, softened by the sinuous contours of the hills, where is visible the life with indelible signs of man and tradition: parish churches, castles, ancient residences create an open-air museum spread across the territory. The typical products par excellence of Pontassieve are agricultural ones, while the area is mainly the Chianti Rufina production area, the smallest geographical specification of Chianti.
Description
Leaving the tosco-romagnola state road, a typical well-trodden white country road of about 3km leads us to the property. A private and automatic gate allows to get to the first building, the main one, of about 240 sqm. Through the independent entrance on the ground floor you can access the large living area and the kitchen with a classic Tuscan and familiar taste, a large pantry houses the typical local products. You reach the sleeping area by going up the comfortable internal staircase in local stone; three comfortable double bedrooms and a large living area as well as a large service room characterize the first and last floor.
A short distance away, the second building consists of an apartment served by an independent entrance, living area with kitchenette, double bedroom and bathroom. The old barn of 108 square meters, expertly restored, has been used as a new apartment with independent entrance in the characteristic loggia overlooking the large living area with a well-equipped central island. On the lower floor reachable by an internal staircase, two double bedrooms with bathroom. The large flat garden houses the ancient lookout tower in a state of ruin, with great potential.
Outdoor spaces
The 85-hectare land hosts 385 olive trees that produce the characteristic Tuscan oil with an intense and pungent flavour; a large panoramic swimming pool promises to spend relaxing moments lying in the sun or admiring the colours of the warm summer sunsets. The land facing the buildings is flat and therefore very usable and comfortable
State and finishes
The farmhouses have been completely renovated from an architectural and plant point of view. The rooms, equipped with all comforts, embody the tradition of the native materials used and the innovation of the most modern details. The floors are in terracotta, the ceilings with exposed beams and the walls partly covered in local stone and partly plastered. The atmosphere you breathe is magical and emphasized by the scent of flowers and medicinal plants
Potential use
The property lends itself to welcoming a family who wishes to fully experience the Tuscan countryside but also to undertake a high-level agritourism activity. The ancient turret could be transformed into apartments or a wonderful spa which would increase the value and level of the entire structure.
