We are delighted to offer for sale a spectacular villa dating back to the 1300s, recently restored and currently used as a charming hotel. The villa, thanks to its enviable position that gives intimacy and relaxation, is characterised by the wonderful view of the Chianti hills and the silence, broken only by the singing of the birds. From the important conservative restoration, one can note the special decorations maintained on the external walls of the villa, where the particularity of these plasters is the creation of a design executed by scratching the plaster with a tool equipped with a metal tip. The design realised, created to have a stylised decoration in harmony with the sober elegance of the building, represents a series of three vertical lines equidistant from the next three lines that run the full height of the façade following a sinuous path regulated by a rhythm of concave and convex curves symbolising the flow of water or wind. Superimposed on these 'waves' are circles scratched into the plasterwork and probably representing the sun as a good omen for harvests. The interiors have been refurbished in an extremely refined shabby-chic style, with wooden floors, exposed beams and frescoed ceilings that blend in well with the surroundings and create a cosy atmosphere In the main building, in addition to the rooms on the first and second floors, 15 in all with bathroom en-suite, we find the reception, the restaurant and a large terrace overlooking the outdoor swimming pool. The property also includes a building, adjacent to the villa, with the SPA featuring a 2x6-metre indoor pool with whirlpool, Finnish sauna, Hammam and massage area The magnificent Italian-style garden, rich in ornamental plants and a small vegetable garden, embraces the main body of the villa and the outdoor swimming pool, allowing one to immerse oneself in the greenery and providing a romantic and relaxing atmosphere. Over the centuries, the Villa has had illustrious owners, such as Count Guido Guidi of the Guidi family of Florence, feudal owners of Moncioni since 1901, the Mari, the Orsi, the Romanelli and the Galassi families, who in 1947 decided to sell the property to the Sassolini family, who used it as a holiday home. 70k from Florence airport and 24k from Siena.
