Property for exclusive use Ancient farmhouse surrounded by olive groves and terraced areas and situated inside the Castello di Bibbione estate in the Chianti area. The castle dates back to the early 11th century, whereas the stone-built houses of the hamlet date back to the early 13th century. The villa rental was purchased in 1511 by Niccolò Machiavelli and his descendants the marquis’ Rangoni Machiavelli personally tended to the recent restoration of the complex.
