Le Rondini – La seule villa de luxe à 3 minutes à pied de Radda in Chianti

Radda in Chianti is one of the last true medieval villages of the Chianti Classico. In a region where luxury villas sit far from any town, Villa Le Rondini is the only one within walking distance of a village, just a short stroll from Radda's piazza, and that
closeness shapes the whole day: coffee in the village at nine, a long lunch in the piazza, a browse through the enoteca, and then, as the light turns gold, the short walk home for an aperitivo on the terrace, facing the villa's famous panoramic sunset over the Chianti hills.

The house has stood for four centuries and has been several things in that time: a watchtower on the road between Florence and Siena, a noble family's home, a working estate that made its own wine and salumi. A five year restoration with
Tuscan master artisans brought back the stone walls, the vaulted ceilings and the terracotta floors, and hid the modern comforts where you feel them but never see
them.

Five ensuite bedrooms each take a single soft colour, blue, pink, green, yellow or ivory, with antique furniture, artisan textiles and deep-set windows that pull light
into the old stone.

Below, in the villa's former winemaking rooms, two spaces carry the evenings: a grand kitchen under restored stone arches, where a ten-seat Carrara marble island gathers everyone around the evening's cooking, and the old cantina beside it, whose vaulted ceiling lends natural acoustics to a long candlelit dinner or an evening of wine and music.

Outside, an elevated ten thousand square metre estate faces the Chianti valley. On summer days a breeze rises from the Florentine valley and moves across the terraces, so even August afternoons by the pool stay comfortable in the shade. The
lawns hold an intimate wedding as easily as an empty afternoon.

Siena, Florence and San Gimignano are all within reach.
