Ancient Tuscan estate on the green hills which rim the famous Crete, the
sun-filled clay hills characterizing Siena landscape. It consists of the
main villa, a large fenced garden, service buildings and 26 hectares of
olive groves, fields and woodland.
A panoramic location linked to an all-weather asphalt road by three short
graveled roads enjoying both the advantage of privacy and of a secure access to the road under any climatic conditions.
The farm buildings have been converted into luxurious country houses, either
for private or for public uses, like congress halls, hotels or holiday
cottages. Renowned architects, like professor Portoghesi of Rome, have
contributed to some of the restructuring works. The most impressive
neighbour is San Gimignanello estate, a medieval castle mentioned by Dante
Alighieri.
The owner's house, the fenced garden and the watchman's house were designed and built for himself by an ancestor of the present landlord, an architect,
around 1870. Part of the owner's house and of the attached building lies on
a cave and on foundation walls built in the XVI century. The present service
buildings, which also include stables and warehouses, were built and
restructured.
The estate in its present conditions permits two possible uses: as a high
level holiday farm or as a large private country house. The owner's house
has been restructured in the 90ties, offering 7 bedrooms with private
restrooms, communal living rooms and several large service rooms.
Subsequently, the restructuring works were extended to some of the other
buildings where two 2-bedroom flats for guests and two 3-bedroom flats for
personnel have been added.
Two technical buildings, where grapes and olives were pressed, have been
recently converted into a charming restaurant. The plants of the kitchen
meet all the state of the art requirements. All the buildings have been regularly registered and enjoy the permits required to operate in the hotel
industry.
Water supply is ensured by both a private deep borehole and by the municipal waterworks'.
The farming activities are focused on the olive culture: today there are
about one thousand trees, some of them century-old, and it is possible to
thicken the olive groves by adding one thousand more. The calcareous soil
and the optimum elevation (about 400 m above sea level) result in an
excellent olive oil, which is highly reputed by the connoisseurs. In case of
need, the farm warehouses can host a private oil press. A 6,000 m2, properly
faced, vineyard produces a local variety of Chianti wine.
The 10 hectare coppice wood is a beautiful green lung which enriches the
landscape with its changing colours. It belongs to "Lecceto", an old forest
which surrounds the Lauretana road. Besides excellent fire wood, it is rich
of tasty mushrooms and of rare white truffles.
