Beautiful independent farmhouse at the center of an agricultural estate that produces excellent Chianti Classico wines and extra virgin olive oil. The farmhouse dates back to Etruscan times when the entire estate was an important Etruscan settlement. Traces of the original Etruscan plans can still be found today on the property mainly in the hamlet and in the owner's villa. The estate has been in the family of the current owners for many generations and dominates several hills and corresponding valleys that are planted to vineyards and olive groves. Castellina in Chianti with all facilities is at 7 kms, Siena is at 25 kms and Firenze is at 50 kms.
 
Casa Fermentini completed restoration in 1998 with a careful eye to maintaining the typicity of Tuscan architecture intact with woodbeamed ceilings, cotto floors and whitewashed walls, while adding the most modern amenities. The farmhouse has its own private furnished garden space and private 7 X 14 meter swimmingpool ( beach towels are provided ), surrounded by olive trees. The owner resides year round in a separate farmhouse not far from Casa Fermentini. He is available to assist guests with itineraries and purchase of the wonderful estate products.

Behind the farmhouse are the wine cellars and a parking lot for the guests. From the rear of the farmhouse, a short flight of stairs leads to the private furnished courtyard and garden which is ideal for enjoying dinner while gazing at the panorama. In the courtyard, in a separate building is the apartment called Casa del Guardia, which is described below. This separate unit is to be booked together with the main house in the large version sleeping up to 19 persons.

The farmhouse is set into the side of a hill so it develops on different levels. Private entrance is from the furnished garden up one step through double glass doors into the spacious living room with fireplace. On the left of this living room is a stone staircase that leads to the first floor sleeping section of the house. Satellite TV with DVD, stereo with CD playe and WIFI are in the living room. The WIFI also covers the garden and pool areas. An open archway separates this living room area from a second living room that again has door to the garden. An open passageway in this second living area leads into the spacious dining room with luminous crescent-shaped windows.

To give an idea of spaciousness, the living/dining area alone measures 110 sqm. Through an open passageway in the dining room is a hall with three doors. The first door on the right opens into the delightful rustic kitchen with large window overlooking the countryside. The kitchen is fully equipped with gas range, electric oven, fridge with freezer and dishwasher. The second door in the hall opens into a laundry room with washbasin, washing machine and ironing facilities. The last door on the left in the hall opens into a service bathroom with washbasin, WC and shower. 

Back in the entrance living room, the stone staircase leads up to the first floor landing with a door on the right to a spacious double bedroom with beautiful wrought iron bed and ensuite complete bathroom with shower stall. From the landing, a hallway lit by a beautiful skylight leads to the doors to the other rooms. There is a second double bedroom, again with wrought iron bed and ensuite complete bathroom with shower stall, two twin bedded rooms with beds that can be united on request. Both twin bedrooms have ensuite complete bathrooms with shower stalls, and, on request, an additional single bed can be added in the more spacious of the twin bedded rooms.

Facing the left side of the hallway, there is a spacious suite with double bedroom and ensuite complete bathroom with bathtub. An additional single bed can be added to this suite. On one side of this suite is a wooden staircase that leads up to the tower of the farmhouse with a landing that has doors to a utilities room and, up two steps, to a single bedroom with beautiful arched windows and ensuite bathroom with washbasin, WC and shower. The house has central gas heating.
