Incredible castle for sale near Florence

The Castle of Montauto rises at an altitude of 168 metres above sea level on the summit of a conical hillock overlooking the Via Chiantigiana. The dominant position on the summit of the steep hill offers the building a vast and extremely attractive panorama towards the Impruneta and Chianti. The castle, despite its considerable size, is a conspicuous feature in the surrounding landscape, and is protected by a thick park of cypresses and holm oaks that extends well beyond the perimeter of the ancient walls.

Researchers are currently studying the possibility of attributing the fresco inside to Giottino.

The Castle of Montauto is an interesting composite monument that sums up aspects of medieval, renaissance and baroque art.

Around 1550, the castle was extended and transformed into a villa by the Marcanti Ciani family at the hands of one of the most prominent architects of the time, Domenico di Baccio d’Agnolo.

The Montaut Castle with its rooms offers the possibility of important business dinners, meetings, birthdays, exhibitions and weddings.

It is possible to use the castle as a family residence or as a hotel tourist residence. A swimming pool can also be built within the property.
