The property is made up of a U-shaped main building with an internal courtyard, a barn and a small chapel. In the valley, there is a ruin, which can be rebuilt as a stable.
The buildings, which date back to the 14th century, were originally used as a convent. They used to belong to Lisa Gherardini (Mona Lisa), who had received them as a dowry from her father.

The main building, on the ground floor and on the upper floor, is composed of three apartments and numerous ancillary rooms like a cellar with a separate wine-tasting room, a workshop, a wood-fired oven, some storage rooms and boiler rooms.

In the valley, there is a derelict building with a (net) usable area of 34.88 sqm. It is made up of two rooms that can be rebuilt and used for the keeping of animals.

The property has been carefully restored using reclaimed materials such as quarry stones, oak wood beams and terracotta tiles. The windows, shutters, gates and doors are in solid chestnut, finished in cypress wood. The property features ceilings and floors with terracotta tiles. The bathrooms and kitchens meet modern requirements. In the apartments, there are open fireplaces. The property is equipped with all the necessary machines to produce wine and olive oil.

This Tuscan estate property includes 16.7 hectares of land, of which about 4 ha of olive grove, about 0.5 ha of vineyard, about 4 ha of agricultural land and 8 ha of oak and cypress wood. The terraced garden of 0.80 hectares is enriched by ornamental plants like lavender, rosemary and sage. Furthermore, there is a fruit and vegetable garden. The garden is equipped with an irrigation system.
The fenced-in land includes a parking area with four parking spaces.

Wine, vin santo, vinegar and olive oil are currently being produced on this Tuscan estate and sold to the guests.
The property can be used in numerous ways. The future owners can live in an apartment and rent out the other two or use them to host friends and relatives. The 2nd apartment could be used for holiday rentals.
The barn and the chapel could be used as an atelier, exposition room or concert hall. Here workshops, different courses, weddings and other events could be arranged.
Since there is a great demand for vineyards and agricultural land in the Chianti Classico, there is also the possibility of selling or renting the land out to neighbouring estates.

This Tuscan estate property is part of a limited partnership (S.A.S.). The purchase may be made with the simple transfer of shares.

The furniture, as well as the tools and all the machinery for the production of wine and olive oil, are included in the selling price.
