Historic villa with farmhouse and vineyard in Spazzavento, west Pistoia
In the heart of the rolling Tuscan countryside, surrounded by centuries-old cypress trees and flourishing vineyards, stands this enchanting 18th-century villa — one of the most prestigious noble residences currently for sale in Tuscany. Set within over 3 hectares of private land, featuring olive groves, vineyards, and woodland, this unique property embodies the perfect blend of aristocratic elegance, historical charm, and breathtaking natural beauty.
A long, iconic cypress-lined avenue leads to the estate, setting the tone for the majestic atmosphere that envelops the property from the very first moment.
Built around 1750 and carefully restored during the 1960s, the villa has preserved all its original architectural and artistic elements: period frescoes, decorated ceilings, grand salons adorned with monumental chandeliers, and carefully curated antique furnishings that enhance the timeless beauty of every space.
The villa’s façade is elegant and harmonious — understated yet imposing — hinting at the splendor that awaits within: 25 rooms distributed across four levels, all connected by a grand staircase and a discreetly integrated elevator. The piano nobile (main floor) features sumptuous frescoed salons, embellished with hand-painted ceilings and antique chandeliers, a testament to the property’s immense historical and artistic value.
Each room is a refined world of its own, where frescoes inspired by mythological scenes and sacred tales blend seamlessly with impeccably preserved period furniture, recreating the atmosphere of a time when art and an appreciation for beauty were at the heart of everyday life. Views from the villa offer charming glimpses of the garden, the surrounding woods, and the Tuscan hills, changing with the seasons.
In a private wing of the villa, a small and intimate chapel further enriches the estate’s spiritual identity. This serene space pays homage to the villa’s first owner, Giuseppe Ippoliti, who served as bishop of Cortona and later of Prato and Pistoia.
The lower ground floor houses the historic kitchens and a vaulted brick cellar, underscoring the deep connection to Tuscany’s food and wine tradition. The original barrels and rustic yet elegant atmosphere offer enormous potential for those who dream of living in a historic estate with a winemaking heritage, or who envision transforming the property into an exclusive hospitality venue.
The estate also includes a beautifully restored farmhouse located just a short distance from the main villa. This charming building is perfect as guest accommodation, staff housing, or for developing luxury hospitality activities, cultural retreats, or artistic projects.
Outside, a panoramic garden shaded by mature trees, stone-paved paths, and an ancient stone fountain enhances the grandeur of the entire property. The atmosphere recalls the timeless elegance of a true Tuscan aristocratic estate, perfectly preserved and in harmony with the surrounding landscape.
