The property

Built at the beginning of the XX century, the property was built as the house of a farmer of an important farm at those ages and, then, it was turned into a countryside house and renovated in the early Seventies following the tendencies of that period, which made the house losing the typical look of the Tuscan countryside house.

Since our first look, we recognized that its typical beauty was taken away and we decided that it needed a renovation. We renovated the house by mixing the typical features of the Tuscan countryside house with modern technologies, paying always a great attention to ecology and to energy savings.

Tenuta di Macericca was born as the perfect place on the Chianti hills where our guests can take a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life by either enjoying the combination of rural life with modern facilities or enjoying the landscape from the terraces or going for a swim in the pool admiring the surrounding hills.

The property stretches out for 23 acres with around 600 olive trees, some fruit trees and a small vineyard that we will expand in order to make our own wine, that our guests can taste and buy. There are also a small flowerbed with aromatic plants such as rosemary, sage, mint, lavender, chili peppers and tyme.
