Sambuca stands proudly as one of the most stylish properties in the heart of Chianti, Italy. Rich in history, the villa dates back to the XVth and XVIth century when it was constructed for the Fattore (Administrator) of the renowned Abbey of Passignano. After meticulous renovation in 2012, it has emerged as a masterpiece of architecture and design, garnering acclaim from prestigious decoration and architectural magazines in Europe.
Nestled on a hilltop, this villa offers breathtaking views of the Chianti countryside, just two kilometers from the village of Sambuca. Surrounded by a 10-acre property of original Tuscan oak forest, the villa ensures absolute privacy. Its exterior, adorned in original stones, is complemented by a Mediterranean Garden, while a 60 feet long infinite pool and sunbathing area provide a tranquil retreat.
The villa comprises six bedrooms and five bathrooms. The spacious living room, dining room, and gourmet-style kitchen exude sophistication. With its 360° views from the turret, the villa captures the essence of the Tuscan landscape, colored by vineyards, cypresses, olive groves, and woods. Elegant spots, including a well-furnished patio and an ancient basin turned swimming pool, accentuate the outdoor charm.
The villa's proximity to the Abbey of Passignano, once owned by the Monastery producing prestigious Italian wines, adds to its allure. Nearby attractions such as Florence, Siena, and San Gimignano offer cultural, culinary, and nature adventures. The villa's unique facade, with a small turret offering panoramic views, reflects the typical Tuscan farmhouse architecture.
On the ground floor, a double bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen, and a refined living area connect seamlessly to the patio and swimming pool. The first floor houses two bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, a twin room sharing a bathroom, and a master double bedroom with an ensuite bathroom and dressing room. The turret (Colombaia) on the second floor features a twin room with panoramic windows.
Sambuca accommodates 12 guests, making it an ideal retreat for those seeking an authentic Tuscan experience surrounded by timeless elegance.
