This 19th-century Tuscan farmhouse that sits 450 metres above sea level has been brought into stylish 21st-century style, all while retaining its rustic charm and characterful Italian romance. Featuring its original windows and tall beamed ceilings alongside contemporary decor, it’s a space that’s been reimagined with rest and relaxation in mind, not to mention a showstopping outdoors that is certain to have you basking in its beauty from dawn till dusk. Covering 1,200 square metres of land, the home’s terraced gardens are as expansive as they are stunning. Spend afternoons taking dips in the private pool before sunning yourself on one of the loungers, relishing the scent of the citrus and olive trees perfuming the air. When hunger calls, make your way to the white-draped pergola and fire up the barbecue for a memorable alfresco feast. As the sun begins to dip behind the surrounding hills, watch the stars come out one by one over a glass of wine before heading back inside for a dreamy night’s sleep. Should you wish to venture out for a day of exploring, you'll find the medieval village of San Donato a stone's throw away, while Barberino Tavarnelle is also just a short drive...
