Renovated traditional-style farmhouse with rooms and apartments, banqueting, solar panels, for sale in Chianti, Arezzo. Just 3 km from the medieval center of San Giovanni Valdarno, the birthplace of Masaccio and where you can still breathe Tuscan tradition, with museums, craft stores, bars, restaurants and services. A country road takes us away from city life to a place of peace, with centuries-old woods and vineyards. Surrounded by 123 acres of private land, Podere La Costa consists of a main farmhouse connected by several canopies to attached huts, transformed into cozy spaces for hosting travelers or celebrating weddings and memorable events. The maintained lawn garden is bordered by flower beds, aromatic plants, large shade trees, and protected by a forest of oaks and holm oaks. A swimming pool, multi-depth, and a large gazebo for banqueting and ceremonies, equipped with outbuildings and barbecue areas, find the perfect place here. On the ground floor of the main house is the living area and a dining room with a fireplace, stone walls and retractable glass doors overlooking the garden. The first floor is dedicated to five bedrooms with private bathrooms. The former huts and wine cellar have been converted into apartments all with terraces and porches for outdoor dining, living rooms with kitchens, varying in type with one, two or three rooms, while the former barn, slightly detached from the main body, houses an apartment with patio and private view of the garden, as well as rooms for storage and warehouse use with access from the courtyard. All rooms are equipped with air conditioning, flat-screen televisions and satellite channels, and high-speed Internet. Solar panels and a photovoltaic system provide autonomy for electricity and hot water. With an accommodation capacity of 30 beds and the possibility of hosting ceremonies and events for up to 200 people, Podere La Costa preserves the typical architectural features of the Chianti estates, 30 minutes south of Florence, and boasts a loyal international clientele who return each year with family and friends for their vacations in Chianti, in the heart of Tuscany.
