20 bedroom House For Sale: Florence..

Right in the heart of the Chianti region, few kilometres from the enchanting Florence, totally surrounded by olives and prestigious vineyards, this old farm, now agriturismo and art centre, dominates the landscape from the top of a hill. The hamlet dates back to 1427 and belonged afterwards to the Buondelmonti first and the Medici then. The complex comprises a tower, some constructions, small piazzas and loggias.
