Surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, Casale Classico is perfect for five couples or an extended family, and the location couldn't be better! Located in the heart of Tuscany's Chianti Classico region and set on an idyllic hillside just 15 minutes from Florence (18 km) and less than an hour from Siena, the villa is within an hour's drive of Lucca, and all of the beautiful hill towns of Chianti are within easy reach. The closest village, Mercatale Val di Pesa, with shops and restaurants, is just 5 minutes away (2 km), and facilities for horseback riding are available nearby (3 km). Casale Classico has five bedrooms with five en suite bathrooms (10 people). Upon request and for an additional fee, four additional beds can be added bringing the total capacity of the villa to 14 guests. This spacious villa has been totally restored. The property includes the house (530 sqm) and an amazing swimming pool (15 x 7 metres) with separate circular Jacuzzi tub and furnished stone solarium.
An unpaved road (1200 metres) leads to the villa, which dates back a thousand years; it was once a small monastery and later became a country house. 10.000 square metres of private land surround the house. The manicured lawn is bordered with roses and olive trees, and a shaded stone patio overlooks the pool and is furnished with a long table, comfortable chairs, and a BBQ for al fresco dining watching the sunset. A few steps away is the beautiful fresh-water pool with Jacuzzi, surrounded by lounge chairs, tables and umbrellas, with a panoramic view of the Chianti hills. Some steps away there is a pool house with changing room and bathroom with shower. Inside, Casale Classico has beautiful terracotta tile floors and beamed ceilings. It is divided into two floors.
