With a truly picturesque location in the Chianti hills, this rustic villa is the ideal choice for anybody that has fantasised at any point about eloping to Tuscany for a short while — which is surely most people, right? Thanks to the elevated position, the address benefits from sweeping views of the countryside and these can be admired while dining on the terrace or gliding through the swimming pool, which is shared with the other four houses in the tiny village. Once you step through the home's large vaulted entrance — formerly the property's stables — you'll be greeted with an interior heavy on period features, including the fireplace, wooden ceiling beams and antique furnishings. The walls are covered in a great variety of artwork, while the four-poster beds add an extra touch of grandeur. When it comes to days out, you're firmly in wine territory here and there are local vineyards to visit not too far from the h...
There are many great things to say about this 18th century villa in Chianti, so let’s start with the most obvious, shall we? Overlooking the breathtaking Chianti Classico hills, the view here is something that shouldn’t be missed.

The interior of this home is another big tick – rustic but cosy, you’ll be especially drawn to the traditional Tuscan fireplace that, although ornamental, adds such warmth to the space.
