Large Tuscan Farmhouse for Sale in Mugello with Lake Views and 35.9 Hectares

This large Tuscan farmhouse for sale in Barberino di Mugello occupies a private hillside position with panoramic countryside and lake views. The property is approximately 45 km north of Florence and includes a 461 m² main house, a 69 m² former barn, a garden, an established olive grove and approximately 35.9 hectares of land.

The farmhouse is in good structural and habitable condition, although cosmetic updating would allow a new owner to modernise the interiors while retaining the original Tuscan materials. Stone and brick walls, terracotta floors, vaulted ceilings, exposed wooden beams and several fireplaces reflect the rural architecture of the Mugello area.

The main house provides approximately 461 m² of accommodation over two floors. On the ground floor, a spacious entrance hall connects with the principal living areas. These comprise a large living room with a fireplace, currently also used as a billiard room, a substantial kitchen with a traditional fireplace and oven, a separate sitting room, a laundry room, a guest bathroom, a storage room and a utility room.

The entrance hall also gives access to the cellar and the large internal garage. Two additional storage rooms have independent external entrances, providing useful space for equipment, garden tools or estate management.

The first floor contains seven bedrooms and two bathrooms arranged around two central hallways. The generous room sizes and straightforward layout make the house suitable for use as a large family residence, a multigenerational home or, subject to the necessary permissions, a small accommodation or rural hospitality project.

A former barn stands a short distance from the farmhouse. This traditional agricultural building measures approximately 69 m² and requires restoration. The ground floor currently contains a tool store and covered shelter, while the upper floor retains the open volume of the original hayloft. It could provide additional residential, guest, studio or recreational space.

The estate extends to approximately 35.9 hectares, equivalent to 88.7 acres. Much of the hillside land is woodland, creating privacy around the farmhouse and providing space for walking, outdoor recreation and land management.

Approximately 2,000 m² of garden surrounds the house. The garden provides established outdoor space for dining, seating and general leisure use.

The agricultural land includes approximately 3.8 hectares of olive grove on the southern side of the hill. There are also around 2 hectares of arable land that may be suitable for agricultural use or the planting of a small vineyard.

The farmhouse is connected to mains electricity, mains water, telephone services, internet and natural gas. Heating is provided through a fan-coil system. Vehicle access is excellent, which is an important practical consideration for a rural property of this size.

Everyday services are available approximately 2 km from the property. Barberino di Mugello is around 10 km away, while Borgo San Lorenzo is approximately 15 km away. Florence is about 50 minutes away, and Amerigo Vespucci Airport is approximately 35 km from the estate.

This Mugello property for sale combines a substantial seven-bedroom farmhouse, a restoration barn, lake views, an olive grove and a large area of private land within reach of Florence. It is particularly suited to buyers looking for a large Tuscan farmhouse with land, privacy and scope to update the interiors according to their own requirements.
