Villa Nove is a rare turnkey wine country estate and agritourism opportunity spanning approximately 34 acres, anchored by a stunning 5,218-square-foot Italian Tuscan villa, an established vineyard, and a fully equipped event and wine production operation. Blending residential luxury with commercial capability, the property is ideally suited for a winery owner, hospitality entrepreneur, investor, or buyer seeking an extraordinary live-work destination. At the heart of the estate, the elegant 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath Tuscan villa offers timeless character and spacious living, complete with a wine cellar and billiards room, a 357-square-foot outdoor terrazza, and an oversized 878-square-foot two-car garage. The estate also includes a renovated 1,388-square-foot original farmhouse with 3 bedrooms and 1 bath, providing additional guest, staff, or rental accommodations. Purpose-built for entertaining and business operations, the renovated 4,544-square-foot tasting room features two climate-controlled dining rooms, each with tasting bars, along with three bathrooms, wine refrigeration, wine storage, and a refinished outdoor patio outfitted with umbrellas, gas heaters, tables, and chairs. The venue is fully equipped to host weddings and events, with seating and furnishings for up to 90 guests. A newly outfitted tasting room kitchen includes ovens, prep stations, refrigeration, and additional equipment needed to support food and beverage service.

Two small ponds with fountains and an irrigation well support the grounds, while a newly installed perimeter fence with high-end materials secures both the farm perimeter and agritourism pasture. A new 16' x 20' pasture barn, scheduled for completion in March 2026, adds further utility.
