House for sale in Castelnuovo Berardenga with 28 bedrooms – ID 2012755

Historic villa with park, frescoed chapel, farm, 28 rooms, swimming pool, tennis court and 26 hectares for sale in Chianti Classico, Siena. In a dominant position with spectacular views of the Chianti hills and the skyline of Siena, with the Torre del Mangia and the dome of the Duomo in the background, Villa Del Santo is immersed in a landscape of vineyards, cypresses, woods and olive groves. Surrounded by 26 hectares of land, the villa was built in the sixteenth century by a noble Sienese family as a summer residence on the remains of a medieval fortress, and enlarged between 1776 and 1780. The noble chapel dates back to 1573, a period to which the Italian garden located in front of the main facade also dates back. At the rear, the property opens onto a large courtyard with gazebo, viewing terrace, swimming pool and tennis court. Restored between 2000 and 2007, the villa has maintained its original structure with a rectangular plan, plastered facades on three floors, and is connected to the ancient rural buildings, now finely restored with exposed stone, brick arches and tile roofs. Today it houses a luxury accommodation facility with 28 rooms distributed between the villa and the farm buildings, divided into suites and apartments, enriched by a restaurant with a banqueting room for 50 to 100 seats. The interiors, in rustic Tuscan style, retain wooden ceilings, terracotta floors, wall decorations, stone fireplaces, fine fabrics, canopy beds, antique furniture and Sienese craftsmanship. The hall with four large brick arches is particularly evocative. Each room is equipped with every comfort, bathrooms with tub or shower, lift and a new 70 kW photovoltaic system nearing completion. Further agricultural outbuildings can be converted, bringing the accommodation capacity to 40 rooms. With an interesting annual turnover and consolidated international clientele, Villa Del Santo represents a rare opportunity in one of the most panoramic locations in Chianti. Worth mentioning is the chapel of San Liberato, in Renaissance style, with a stone facade and interiors frescoed by Arcangelo Salimbeni: Christ surrounded by Angels, Paradise (of which traces remain), Purgatory and Hell, enclosed by a stucco frame with angelic heads and scenes from the Old and New Testament.
