charming Tuscan estate in the Chianti Valdarno area

Splendid Tuscan estate featuring an ancient hamlet with a perfectly restored period villa and a farmhouse totaling 25,000 square meters, nestled within 434 hectares of property, in a dominant position along an Etruscan road in the typical Balze region, among the rolling hills of Chianti Valdarno, near Florence and Arezzo. 
Description  
The estate's core comprises three prestigious main buildings, connected internally by underground passages and externally by courtyards and hallways, which also border the two gardens. All have been meticulously restored, preserving their distinctive original architecture: the ancient Borgo, a historic Ghibelline fortress that later underwent significant expansions and renovations, with its 18th-century chapel; the elegant period Villa, located at the center of the property and also divided into three buildings; and the adjacent Agriturismo, created from the renovation of a large 20th-century farmhouse. The three buildings are complemented by 11 farms and farmhouses, with excellent potential for renovation, for a total of 15,000 square meters of indoor space. The rooms are equipped with every modern comfort and enjoy enchanting panoramic views of the typical Tuscan countryside. The Agriturismo, expertly renovated and divided into rooms and apartments of various sizes, can accommodate up to 52 people.  
Outdoor spaces  
The estate, perfectly nestled in the lush, typically Tuscan hillside vegetation, amidst lush holm oak forests and a variety of crops, extends over 430 hectares, including 15 hectares of vineyards, 40 hectares of olive groves, 130 hectares of arable land, and 70 hectares of woodland divided into various hunting areas. The vineyards are planted with Chianti DOCG wines: Sangiovese, Canaiolo Nero, Trebbiano, and Malvasia. The olive groves comprise 7,000 trees, on hilly terrain ideal for cultivating the Leccino, Moraiolo, and Frantoio varieties. The estate boasts two gardens: a larger, older one and a charming 19th-century Italian-style park with a splendid fountain at the front of the villa. The farmhouse boasts large, furnished green spaces and a swimming pool with a splendid view of the valley below. 
Condition and finishing 
The villa was meticulously restored in the 18th century, with further additions and embellishments, such as coffered ceilings and frescoes, added in the 19th century, highlighting the simple yet elegant style of the former noble residence. The farmhouse has been furnished in typical Tuscan style, with terracotta floors, handmade furniture, and wrought iron accessories, preserving a sense of tradition while offering every comfort, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. 
Potential for use 
The historic villa, with its spacious interior and exterior spaces, is the ideal location for receptions and ceremonies, as well as meetings and conferences. The agriturismo is fully operational. 
Location 
In the heart of Chianti Valdarno, just a few minutes' drive from the main services and close to Tuscany's main cities.
