The Spring House with garden, Radda in Chianti, Siena – Tuscany
Unique location beside a natural spring and crystal-clear, swimmable river, 1600s semi-detached stone house on three levels for sale in Radda in Chianti. In one of the most unspoilt corners of Chianti Classico, between Radda and Castellina in Chianti, the house is reached via a scenic country lane that winds through ancient woodlands and leads to a peaceful enclave by the spring of the River Arbia — a setting of exceptional beauty, complete with walking trails and tranquil bathing spots. Dating back to before the XVII century, it has been thoughtfully restored and now offers 130 square metres of living space arranged over three floors and a mezzanine. The interiors exude warmth and authenticity, with exposed wooden beams, French doors opening onto the garden, a cast-iron wood-burning stove, and a tasteful blend of rustic charm and traditional craftsmanship. On the ground floor, a hand-built kitchen in Tuscan style is complemented by a pantry and a guest bathroom. The first floor features a light-filled sitting room with a stove, leading to a study an to the upper level. Here, the main bedroom enjoys a romantic, elevated setting, alongside a second bathroom and a characterful mezzanine area that serves perfectly as a guest bedroom or quiet reading nook. A separate entrance at the lower ground level opens to a traditional rustic room, ideal for storing bicycles, tools, or pantry. The house is surrounded on three sides by a beautifully maintained private garden, with mature trees, a level lawn, and direct access to the river — a rare and privileged connection to nature. It is the kind of outdoor space where one might easily imagine long lunches under the trees, summer dips in the water, or simply sitting in stillness listening to the sounds of the countryside. Despite its secluded feel, the property remains wonderfully accessible: Siena is just under twenty minutes away by car, and Florence can be reached in around forty minutes. Casa La Sorgente is far more than a country house — it is an intimate, characterful retreat in the very heart of Tuscany, ideally suited as a second home for those seeking to slow down, reconnect with nature, and savour meaningful time with family and friends. Equally, it presents an exceptional opportunity to host guests in search of an authentic Tuscan experience amidst unforgettable landscapes.
