Appartamento in Gaiole in Chianti
What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
A leafy Tuscan setting, stone boundary walls, mature trees, balconies, terrazzo floors, and an old stove give this home genuine character. It appears to be a real, occupied house rather than a shell, but the cramped, cluttered interiors and visible maintenance issues mean it needs meaningful renovation before it feels like a dream home.
- Interiors are very dated, heavily cluttered, and would need substantial refreshing.
- Visible wall cracking and exposed basement plumbing warrant a structural and systems inspection.
- The listing provides no confirmed floor area, bathroom count, or utility details.
