About this property

Old villa nestled in the hills of Chianti

Villa Il Casolare is a complex of 350 m2. It was built in the 18th century and it dominates the hills of Tuscany. It boasts a breathtaking panorama appreciated in every side of the villa, because it is unobstructed on all four sides. The structure was renovated in January 2014 (with Tuscan style), and combines the love for antique Tuscan décor with the most modern comfort and luxury: every detail is intended for the pleasure and relaxation of the client.
The structure, consisting of a main house, an attached house, and a private swimming pool immersed in nature, is located on a hill in a dominating position. It is surrounded 360° by a park of one hectare decorated with cypress trees, fruit trees, olives, and vines. It is located a few kilometres away from Certaldo. This is a privileged location for those who desire relaxing and calm holidays and want to visit the most beautiful city of art in Tuscany.

Main House

The living room on the first floor is accessed via a magnificent 'Colombaio' staircase that rises along the structure and offers a splendid panoramic view of the Chianti Classico hills.

Attached House
The veranda in front of the house leads to a typical Tuscan barn, in which there is a spacious living room with fireplace and a fully equipped gym, all surrounded by large windows that assure exceptional brightness and a view of the surroundings.
Veranda: attached to the barn, it is a lovely porch with wide arches and offers a breath taking view of the surrounding hills. It is equipped with a large dining table to enjoy fantastic outdoor dining moments.

Swimming pool
It is nestled a few steps away from the house. The pool measures 14 x 7 m. The surrounding solarium is built from handmade bricks typical of the region. It is completed with sun beds, beach chairs, chairs, and umbrellas.
