Property 10603 - VALDARNO

7 Bedrooms

Location and Surrounding Area
Immersed in the peaceful Tuscan countryside, this carefully restored farmhouse is ideally located to explore the region’s cultural highlights and most spectacular natural wonders. With breathtaking views over the surrounding landscape, this seven-bedroom property is perfect for unforgettable day trips to Tuscany’s most beautiful towns and offers a unique opportunity to admire the region’s rich historical and cultural heritage.

In less than one hour by car, you can reach Florence, a treasure trove of art with a vibrant contemporary vibe. Beyond its extraordinary artistic heritage, Florence offers the best experience by strolling along the riverside avenues at sunset or getting lost among the city’s myriad alleyways in the bohemian Oltrarno or the narrow streets of San Niccolò, where it feels like you have stepped back in time.

In one hour by car, you can reach the walled town of San Gimignano, one of Italy’s best-preserved mediaeval villages. As you crest the nearby hills, the fourteen towers of the town rise like mediaeval Manhattan. Despite its history, San Gimignano remains a popular destination for summer day trippers drawn by its palpable sense of history and enchanting setting. The historic centre is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and strolling through its streets will make you feel as though you have stepped back in time.

The villa is also a few kilometres from the mediaeval town of Siena. Its ancient red brick buildings, the scallop-shaped main square Piazza del Campo, and the Cathedral Square, dominated by the zebra-striped Duomo, make it a must-visit for anyone travelling to Tuscany. Siena, effectively an open-air museum celebrating Gothic architecture, boasts monuments that have preserved their mediaeval forms and exceptional art collections.

The villa is a few kilometres from Volterra, one of Tuscany’s most dramatic hilltop towns. Despite its many attractions, Volterra attracts fewer tourists than other Tuscan towns, so you can explore its winding stone streets and ancient sites without crowds. Founded by the Etruscans and surrounded by mediaeval walls, Volterra features a notable historic centre filled with fascinating Roman ruins, mediaeval buildings, and alabaster workshops.
