Conveniently located just 4.5 miles from the fabulous village of Greve in Chianti and approximately 13 miles from the vibrant city of Florence, the villa offers the perfect setting to experience Tuscany at its very best!

About the property.
Since 1971, the estate has been owned by the Folonari family, a distinguished name in Italian winemaking and one of Tuscany’s most esteemed and successful wine-producing families.

The villa underwent its first complete restoration in 1992, carefully preserving its original charm and architectural features. More recently, the interiors have been meticulously updated to the highest standards, blending traditional elegance with modern sophistication. Each living space has been thoughtfully designed and adorned with artwork from the owner’s private collection, featuring both ancient masterpieces and contemporary pieces.

The villa is set amidst 90 hectares (220 acres) of vineyards, 15 hectares (37 acres) of olive groves, and overlooks a sprawling forest of century-old maritime pines. The garden, arranged across multiple levels, features a stunning terracotta terrace with vineyard views, a shaded retreat ideal for relaxing on warm summer days, a private heated pool offering breathtaking views, an olive grove, and a spacious lawn perfect for outdoor summer banquets. Altogether, the estate spans an impressive 385 hectares (950 acres) of land.

The villa’s staff is caring and professional, ensuring every detail is perfectly managed. The villa’s Hospitality Manager remains in daily contact with guests, fully dedicated to creating a truly memorable and exceptional holiday experience.

Spreading over a surface of more than 18,000 square feet, the villa seamlessly combines indoor and outdoor living, creating an exceptional setting for either family reunions, groups of friends traveling together, or unforgettable celebrations such as weddings, birthdays and anniversary parties. With 9 beautifully appointed bedrooms, each featuring an en-suite bathroom, the villa provides the perfect luxury retreat for your dream holiday in Tuscany!

The Location.

The historic center of Florence is approximately 13 miles away, about a 25-minute drive, with the Florence Airport located just 19.5 miles from the villa (about a 32-minute drive).
