Description

Description

Located just behind the Villa Greve, in the immense park, once served as the horse stables for the main villa, Villa Greve in Chianti, is been Recently renovated with care. The stables have been transformed into two large apartments with separate entrances, joined by an internal staircase that can allow the apartments to be used as one single spacious house.
 
The top floor, which can be accessed from the panoramic terrace, opens up to a lovely living room with an old stone fireplace and a small kitchen.

This villa has been owned and lovingly cared for by an important  family from five generations. A recent restoration has revealed hidden treasures, such as decorative frescoes and original structures.

The park, which can be described as a typical Italian “giardino” or garden, offers lovely shaded corners for reading, chatting, eating and relaxing. In the summer evenings, the fresh air of the countryside is particularly appreciated, especially while enjoying the spectacular sunsets or dining at candlelight. Because of its particular orientation, the villa does not need air-conditioning, being all the rooms very fresh during the day and the night.
A lovely stone path leads through the fruit orchards to a swimmingpool 12x6 metres large, surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, rose bushes and an enchanting landscape overlooking the true chianti hills!
