Location: Barberino Tavarnelle, Tuscany
The property is located in the Scheto valley, a small Chianti valley in the municipality of Barberino Tavarnelle, a short distance from all services. Even the great genius Leonardo da Vinci went to the Scheto valley, as some drawings in the Hammer codex now in the British Museum in London report, to study the regimentation of rainwater: the famous ‘briglie di Leonardo’, a system of calibrated-mouth sluices with the function of regimenting the descent of the Agliena torrent, which partly crosses the property. Both the Blessed Davanzato, protector of Barberino, and the Barberini family, i.e. the ancestors of Pope Urban VIII, came from this valley, and during the restoration of the Podere, the heraldic coat of arms of the noble family was brought to light. Whoever buys this Podere also buys history. The property can be reached by approximately 1.5 km of unpaved road, which is not in perfect condition at the moment, but can easily be restored. It is situated about 2 km from the centre of Barberino Val d'Elsa, a charming medieval village inhabited by locals. Within a few minutes’ drive you can find restaurants, bars, supermarkets, shops, pharmacies, banks, post office and all essential services. The property is surrounded by vineyards, olive groves and woods typical of the Chianti area. In the immediate vicinity are the renowned Chianti wine cellars and the medieval villages of San Gimignano, Castellina in Chianti and Monteriggioni. Siena is about 30 minutes by car, Florence about 25 minutes; both cities are easily reached via the Florence-Siena highway, which is about 7 km away. Florence airport is about 30 minutes away, Pisa airport about an hour and a quarter and Rome Fiumicino airport about 2 and a half hours.
