The villa is located near San Gimignano, on the borders of Certaldo and Gambassi Terme. The “Villa del Monte” is developed on 282 hectares, and each building is independent of the others, with their own lands.
The domain is composed of the main Villa, with an adjacent large building, initially built for the staff, and is surrounded by gardens. There are also several rural buildings next to the main villa, which are all connected through underground tunnels, and surrounding the complex you will find many cultivations.
This is a description of the 4 main buildings, where you can find that the villa has a total surface of 4200 square meters.
Following this, you can see the different types of grapevines that you can find on the property, which are “Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita», which means that these can create some of the finest wines, as well as olive trees, arable land and forests.
The Complex was bought in the 1500s by Ximenes d’Aragona, one of the wealthiest families in Europe at the time. The complex was renovated and enlarged in the mid 1700s, and once again after World War II. Overall, this property has a lot of history within its walls, and that is one of the few great reasons why this property is one of a kind.
