Gaiole in Chianti, Siena, Tuscany, Italy

Located on the crest of a hill crowned by an ancient castle and its surrounding borgo, this remarkable Tuscan property offers a rare blend of privacy, history, and breathtaking natural beauty. Nestled within lush vegetation and surrounded by the famous vineyards of the Chianti region, the home is set in an enchanting landscape that truly embodies the essence of Tuscany. This standalone home, crafted entirely from local stone and handmade bricks, showcases all the quintessential elements of Tuscan architecture, including terracotta floors and wooden beam ceilings. The property is spread over two levels, each thoughtfully designed to maximize comfort and capture the stunning views of the surrounding landscape. The entrance on the upper floor leads into a spacious kitchen with French doors that open onto a panoramic loggia, offering the perfect spot for al fresco dining while taking in the extraordinary scenery. A large fireplace anchors the kitchen, adding warmth and character to the heart of the home. Adjacent to the kitchen is an expansive living room, currently divided into a living area and a study, but easily adaptable to create a single, unique space. This level also includes a conveniently located bathroom. A single flight of stairs leads to the lower level, where three well-appointed bedrooms and two bathrooms provide ample accommodation. This floor also features an additional room, currently set up as a bedroom but versatile enough for multiple uses, along with a large technical room that includes a laundry area. The lower level offers direct access to the exterior through a massive wooden door, providing easy access to the parking area. The property is in excellent condition, though a few minor stylistic enhancements could further elevate its charm and unlock its full potential. The private garden encircles the house, forming a natural balcony that overlooks the vineyards below. Panoramic views and the natural shade provided by surrounding vegetation create a perfect retreat from the summer heat. Just outside the kitchen, a paved area offers an ideal setting for outdoor dining, surrounded by the beauty of the Tuscan countryside. Residents of the borgo have exclusive access to a stunning infinity pool overlooking the vineyards, providing a luxurious space to relax and unwind. An underground garage further enhances the property's functionality and comfort.

Situated just 15 minutes away from the historic city of Siena, the location provides easy access to all necessary services and attractions while maintaining the tranquillity and seclusion that makes this home so special. Access to the local motorway is also not too far away allowing a quick connection to the major Tuscan airports.
