This property is on the market for €7,000,000, listed with Sotheby's Realty Italy

The 30 acre country estate is set in the most renowned olive production areas near Florence, surrounded by ancient cypresses and olive groves..

Located on one of the ancient Roman roads that connected Florence with Prato and Pistoia, the Italian farmhouse was built upon a medieval watchtower in 1500 for the local Ginori family, historic producers of the famous Richard-Ginori porcelains.

The Ginori coat of arms is found on the main door and inside there are also the coats of arms of Vespucci and Ricasoli families who later inherited the agricultural estate.

In the early 19th century the property was sold to a banker who transformed the villa into a farmhouse and then sold the property to the current owners’ ancestors in 1835.

In 1973, the current owners renovated the villa, restoring its status as a manor house.

Spanning nearly 13,000 sq ft, the Tuscan villa for sale features fine period detailing throughout with beamed and vaulted ceilings, terracotta tile floors, and Tuscan plaster.

Several large reception rooms and 10 bedrooms are laid out around a central courtyard connected by a beautiful stone staircase, and there’s an ensuite bedroom in the tower that offers wonderful views over the valley.

This Tuscan estate for sale comes with a farmhouse, chapel, garages, and a small stable. Just a few kilometres from Florence,
