La Casa Nova, farmhouse in Strada in Chianti

Description

Just 12 km from the center of Florence, in the black rooster “Gallo Nero” wine-producing Chianti region, La Casa Nova is a classic and spacious completely modernised Tuscan farmhouse. It stands on approximately 2.4 acres of land, with a small vineyard, rows of olive trees, lawns and flowers, and an orchard providing fruit and vegetables in season. There is a large terraced swimming pool.

The house, which is made of stone and has a large front arch, is on two floors and sleeps 9 people. The ground-floor includes a dining room, a living room and a study, both with fireplaces, a huge fully equipped kitchen with a fireplace for barbecues, a laundry-room with a washing machine, a service bathroom and a guest bathroom. The top floor has 3 double bedrooms, 3 single bedrooms, a study off the main bedroom and 3 bathrooms, all equipped with modern appliances, bathtubs and showers. All rooms have breathtaking views of the countryside and of the garden with its pines, cypresses, oleanders, and olive trees and given the thickness of the walls the house is cool in the summer and warm in winter (centrally heated throughout). A travertine marble table with teak benches and 2 armchairs under a rose arbor by the swimming pool, and another with folding armchairs and a large white market umbrella at the front of the house make it possible to have most meals outdoors in the summer months.

Located about 8 Km from the main motorway Al to Rome (2 1/2 hours – Exit 23 Firenze Sud) or to Milan (3 hours- Exit 22 Firenze Certosa) It is 2.5 Km from the village of Irnpruneta, about 3 Km from the village of Strada in Chianti, and about 15 Km from Greve.
