Farmhouse in Bucine, Arezzo, Italy

Classic 19 hectares country estate with farm, period stylish buildings with bespoke development potential for sale near Bucine, Arezzo. Set amid rolling vineyards, centuries-old woodland and sweeping, uninterrupted views, this distinguished country estate represents an opportunity to create a landmark retreat in the heart of one of Italy’s most prestigious agricultural regions. Located in a highly regarded area of Chianti, a short distance from the historic borgo of Bucine, the property centres on an elegant late-18th-century villa, complemented by a series of traditional annexes. In total, the built area extends to some 1,078 sq m (11,604 sq ft), offering exceptional scope for restoration and complete customisation according to the vision of its future owner. The estate is enveloped by 19 hectares (46.9 acres) of land, a harmonious and highly productive landscape comprising 5.75 hectares (14.2 acres) of established Chianti DOCG and Toscana IGT vineyards, an olive grove of 1,000 trees with certified IGP production, arable land and forest. This exceptional agricultural framework allows for the creation and branding of the estate’s own wines and fragrant extra-virgin olive oil, an increasingly coveted asset for private collectors and hospitality ventures alike. Accessed via a monumental cypress-lined, the villa is arranged over three levels and retains its original architectural gravitas. A bridge-style terrace overlooks the former Italian garden, evoking the elegance of historic Tuscan estates. The ground floor accommodates the kitchen, a generous drawing room, a traditional lemon house and service rooms. The first floor hosts seven bedrooms, a bathroom and direct access to the terrace, while the attic level completes the structure with additional ancillary space. On the opposite side of the villa, with independent access, the architecture becomes more rustic in character, showcasing exposed natural stone façades. Here, the ground floor includes cellar rooms and an ancient wood-fired oven, while the upper level offers a kitchen, living room, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. A separate stone and terracotta agricultural building of 244 sq m (2,626 sq ft) is fully dedicated to production and includes a wine cellar, and winemaking facilities with compliant systems. This structure is complemented by a characterful barn, storage rooms and warehouses, reinforcing the estate’s strong agricultural identity. This is a property of remarkable authenticity and scale, offering a compelling canvas for a tailored development project, whether conceived as a private country residence, a boutique hospitality destination, or a refined wine and olive oil estate bearing its own signature label. Immersed in the timeless beauty of Chianti, yet within easy reach of essential services, this estate embodies the essence of Tuscan living and stands as a long-term investment in heritage, landscape and lifestyle.
