Podere le Fornaci

Property Description

The village of Bucine, the Valdambra and the Chianti hills. Podere Le Fornaci is situated just outside the village of Bucine, located along the stream Ambra and where the Chianti hills meet the upper valley of the river Arno. Due to its strategic position Bucine has been an important area of transit since the Roman period, as testified by the ancient bridge of Pogi. During the Middle Age it was long contended by local noble families and large cities, the village was first under the dominion of the Earls Guidi di Modigliana, of the Ubertini di Chitignano, of the Tarlati and finally under Arezzo and Firenze. Bucine and the Valdambra are still today, thanks to the proximity to the main ways of communication, a strategic area if you wish to taste the famous Chianti wine or visit the main art cities of Tuscany or the peculiar villages of the land of Siena.

Podere Le Fornaci, reachable through a non-asphalted road about 300 meters long, is composed by the main villa, divided into three apartments, two of which at guests disposal and a third one inhabited by the owner, and by an adjoining small house where we find a fourth apartment.
