Farming opportunities
The farmland on which the house is situated, is nearly two hectares (20,000m2), and is of quality suitable for all farming types including wine production.
Its hilltop position offers views over the undulating fields of Val di Chiana, internationally famous for cattle, olive oil and fine wines. Surrounded by the vineyards and farms of Fratticciola, there is plenty of local expertise available to help with the entire viticulture process from start to finish.
The community of Fratticciola
Every year the warm community of Fratticciola celebrates the history of their agricultural traditions and for a weekend in October many people visit from near and far. The neighbourhood has already attracted a small number of international residents from USA, UK and other parts of Europe.
