This stunning and luxurious villa overlooks famous San. Gimignano (1km) in the province of Siena it is totally enclosed within its own walls and comes with abundant Olive groves and chianti vineyards set in 10,000 sq. mtrs grounds. The Villa was built in circa 1800 and taken over by the then Fascist government for use by favoured government officials (it is thought that Il Duce - Mussolini -stayed here).

The main house comprises of 21 rooms, built of local hand made red brick and has a FABULOUS taverna (60ft x 20 approx.) on lower ground floor. The property is loosely divided into three sections and all of the building has exceptional vaulted red-brick ceilings in perfect condition. There is a large balcony/terrace which is very private and overlooks the gardens and grounds.

Within the grounds there is a smaller "lodge house", a swimming pool and extensive cultivated and mature gardens.

Additionally available (price negotiable) there is - a VERY large "cantina" and a large barn - both are apart and separate from main house and come with 10,000 sq. mtrs of land. If developed the "cantina" would make a superb, very large hotel/agroturismo business, with the barn acting as an overflow with plenty of space for a swimming pool etc.
