Summary:
Villa settings don't get any more unique than this 5 bedroom Tuscany villa. This villa is perched on top of a hill in a now uninhabited village and enjoys incredible 360 degree views. The church does open once a week on a Sunday morning and there is a superb restaurant - La Foresteria - less than a minutes walk away. But otherwise, guests will have this 5 bedroom Tuscany villa and the hilltop to themselves.
The Space:
Outside this 5 bedroom Tuscany villa boasts a small private pool and heated private jacuzzi, both positioned to make the most of those wonderful views. The pool is open from mid April to end September each year. It may also be possible to heat the pool, even out of season. Please ask for more details and costs.
Inside, the villa is laid out over two floors. On the ground floor there is an open plan living and dining area, kitchen, separate laundry room and two bedrooms, both with ensuite bathrooms. One of these bathrooms is adapted for wheelchair users. The kitchen is fully equipped but we think guests will frequently be too tempted to eat in the nearby restaurant rather than cook for themselves! Of course, we can also provide the services of the chef in the comfort of your villa if you prefer.
On the first floor of this 5 bedroom Tuscany villa, there are three further bedrooms, nestled into the eaves of the house. All the bedrooms have ensuite bathrooms. Two of these rooms have double beds whilst a third can be laid out as either a double or twin room. All the bedrooms are also equipped with wall mounted TVs. The decor is modern in style throughout.
Parking for this 5 bedroom Tuscany villa is available in the village square just 50 metres from the villa.
