internal Description:
in the heart of the Chianti hills of Arezzo, in the municipality of Bucine, we offer for sale a prestigious castle originally dating back to the first half of the 12th century.

The interiors stand out for their magical and esoteric atmosphere, enhanced by a spectacular collection of art masterpieces included in the sale. Among the preserved treasures are Corinthian, Egyptian, Greek, and medieval vases, Flemish and Caravaggesque paintings, 16th-century compendiaria ceramics, an original drawing by Pontormo, Elizabethan furniture, a restored altarpiece from 1440, ancient manuscripts, Renaissance cameos, 17th-century majolica, Venetian candelabra, and even drawings by Dali and Goethe. Despite its museum-like value, the castle retains an intimate and family-friendly atmosphere in its rooms, including the iconic "Camera dello Scorpione" (Scorpion Room) and "Camera delle Rose" (Rose Room). The estate also features three renovated guest apartments, with all furnishings included.
