Set among the vineyards, olive groves and wooded hills of Chianti Classico, this beautifully restored stone farmhouse occupies a private position just outside Radda in Chianti, between Florence and Siena. Combining the architectural character of a historic Tuscan country house with sophisticated contemporary comforts, the property includes a principal residence, independent guest house, private wellness spa, panoramic salt-water swimming pool and approximately 12.9 hectares of land.
The estate offers approximately 387 m² of buildings in total, comprising a 265 m² main house, a 61 m² guest cottage, a 50 m² spa and an additional 11 m² agricultural storage building. With four bedrooms and five bathrooms overall, it is particularly well suited either as a private country residence or as an elegant retreat in one of Tuscany’s most internationally recognised wine regions.
Of medieval origin and restored in 2020, the principal residence has retained much of the material character associated with traditional Chianti farmhouses. Stone façades and exposed internal masonry are complemented by large glazed openings that connect the interiors directly with the garden and surrounding landscape.
The restoration introduced a considerably higher level of comfort than is normally found in historic rural properties, including underfloor heating, air conditioning, home automation, CCTV and an alarm system, allowing the house to be enjoyed throughout the year without compromising its original architectural identity.
The principal living level centres on an open-plan sitting and dining room with a fireplace, alongside a well-appointed kitchen. From here, there is direct access to a covered loggia for outdoor dining, complete with oven and barbecue.
The sleeping accommodation within the main house comprises three bedrooms. The principal bedroom has its own dressing room and bathroom, while a second bedroom incorporates a mezzanine level. A further bedroom is situated on the lower level and opens directly onto the garden. One of the particularly attractive aspects of the layout is the close relationship between the interiors and exterior spaces, with each bedroom benefiting from direct garden access.
On the upper floor, a second sitting room provides an additional informal living or television room, while practical spaces include storage and a traditional cellar.
Separate from the principal residence is an independent 61 m² guest house, providing visitors with their own living area, bedroom and bathroom. Its independence from the main house makes it equally suitable for visiting family, friends or guest accommodation.
A second stone annex of approximately 50 m² has been transformed into a dedicated private wellness area. The spa incorporates a heated indoor pool with hydromassage, sauna, Turkish bath, changing area and bathroom, creating an unusually complete wellness facility for a country property in Chianti.
Together with the outdoor swimming pool, the spa significantly extends the seasonal use of the estate and gives the property particular appeal for both private use and the high-end holiday rental market.
The buildings are surrounded by approximately 1,990 m² of established garden, including around 1,600 m² of landscaped lawn.
Positioned to take advantage of the surrounding countryside, the 10 × 7 metre salt-water swimming pool forms the focal point of the garden. Its panoramic setting, together with the adjoining terraces and covered outdoor dining areas, creates a natural continuation of the living spaces during the warmer months.
Beyond the immediate gardens, the estate extends to approximately 12.9 hectares (31.8 acres) of private land. This includes vines and olive groves, approximately 5.3 hectares of woodland, together with pasture and arable land. The combination of cultivated and wooded ground gives the property both privacy and the authentic agricultural character associated with the Chianti Classico landscape.
The property lies in the countryside surrounding Radda in Chianti, one of the historic hill towns at the heart of the Chianti Classico wine region of Tuscany.
Radda is approximately ten minutes away and provides restaurants, cafés, shops and everyday services within an exceptionally well-preserved medieval setting. The surrounding countryside is characterised by vineyards, olive groves, stone villages and oak woodland, with some of Tuscany’s best-known wine estates found throughout the immediate area.
Siena is approximately 25 km away, while Florence lies to the north, making the property well positioned for exploring both cities as well as the villages and vineyards of central Tuscany. Florence Airport is approximately 67 km away and Pisa Airport approximately 115 km away.
The final approach is along approximately one kilometre of gravel road, reinforcing the property’s peaceful rural position while keeping Radda and essential services within easy reach.
The combination of a historic Tuscan stone farmhouse, panoramic swimming pool, independent guest accommodation, private spa, vineyard and olive groves is comparatively rare within this part of Chianti.
Carefully restored while retaining its original stone architecture, the estate offers the atmosphere expected of a traditional farmhouse in Tuscany together with the technology and amenities required for contemporary year-round living.
For buyers seeking a farmhouse for sale in Chianti Classico, a country home with pool near Radda in Chianti, or a Tuscan estate capable of accommodating family and guests independently, this is an unusually complete property in one of the most established and desirable areas of the Tuscan countryside.
