For sale cottage, countryside Castellina in Chianti Toscana

Nestled among the hills of Castellina in Chianti, in the secluded La Piazza di Sotto area, Villa Bianciardi stands like a sleeping giant awaiting rebirth. More than just a property, the estate is a true private noble village, enveloped by the tranquility of 28 hectares of unspoiled land amid woods, olive groves, and the exceptional vineyards of Chianti Classico.

With a majestic floor area of over 2,900 square meters, the property preserves the strength and purity of traditional Tuscan architecture. The pietra serena stone, exposed chestnut beams, original terracotta tiles, and imposing vaulted structures tell the story of centuries of rural and aristocratic life. Dominating the complex is the main building with its panoramic tower, flanked by historic outbuildings, intimate courtyards, and ancient underground cellars. Adjacent to the farmhouse stands an ancient consecrated church, complete with a bell tower and period details: a remarkably evocative presence that lends the entire site a spiritual and aesthetic dimension truly unique in the international real estate landscape.

Today, Villa Bianciardi stands in its original state, offering a priceless blank canvas for those who wish to create a bespoke project. The complete absence of design restrictions and the versatile potential for use allow maximum freedom for the buyer’s vision: the property can be transformed into a sumptuous stately home or developed into a high-end boutique resort.

The spacious interiors of the main building naturally lend themselves to accommodating expansive suites overlooking the Sienese landscape. The monumental vaulted cellars invite one to envision a signature restaurant, a majestic tasting room, or an exclusive private wine cellar. At the same time, the spaces carved into the stone offer the ideal setting for an underground spa, where water and living elements create an oasis of absolute well-being. Outside, the centuries-old park suggests the perfect setting for a panoramic infinity pool overlooking the vineyards, terraces dedicated to outdoor living, or spaces reserved for memorable events.

The location is simply iconic: nestled along the route between Florence and Siena, the estate is just five minutes from the village of Castellina in Chianti and less than an hour from the region’s airports and major art cities, ensuring both total privacy and seamless connectivity to the world.

A rare opportunity in the luxury market, intended for those who wish to own not just a property, but an authentic piece of Tuscan history and landscape.
