Not many estates can claim to have a 1,000-year-old medieval tower in the backyard, but that’s exactly what anchors this historic property in the heart of Tuscany’s renowned Chianti wine region.
Known as Villa Uglione, the estate sits high on a hill near the quiet villages of Tavarnelle Val di Pesa and Barberino Val d’Elsa, surrounded by rolling vineyards and olive groves. From its elevated position, the nearby Castello di Santa Maria is visible just down the way, while the Apennine Mountains rise in the distance.
The compound comprises three buildings—the main house, the old tower, and a new spa building—together totaling about 6,700 square feet of living space across 15 rooms. In all, there are eight bedrooms and seven bathrooms. The 3.7-acre grounds offer ample room to stretch out, with permission already in place to build a small guest cottage with its own living room, bedroom, and bath.
