Located in the centre of Tuscany, between Florence and Siena, whose art and culture it has always breathed, and nestled amongst the green hills of Chianti, Barberino Val d’Elsa has preserved over the centuries all the natural beauty of the landscape. The austere elegance of its castles and medieval borghi, the artistic treasures contained in its parish churches, all harmoniously fit into the suggestive Florentine Chianti, characterised by a unique nature and landscape, sweet and austere, among vineyards, olive groves and cypress trees. Poggibonsi, just 7 km from the property, is a commercial centre where you can meet all your shopping needs and find excellent taverns and wine bars, as well as the railway station which permits quick travel to both Siena and Florence. Thanks to the Siena-Florence motorway link, the villa is quickly reachable from the airports of the region and from the nearest motorway exits, from both north and south. About 2 km from the property, in the historic borgo of Barberino Val d’Elsa, all main services, restaurants and bars can be found.
The villa has two floors and is surrounded by a well-kept park, within which is the swimming pool for the exclusive use of the guests. The house is an elegant jewel, embellished with fine furniture and accessories of high quality: parquet and terracotta floors alternate, contributing to the value of the house; antique carpets and furnishings embellish the rooms, in a context characterised by light tones and large windows; the spacious modern kitchen, with large peninsula, is at the service of the brightly-lit living room to ensure moments of relaxation indoors as well; the elegant bedrooms with private bathroom boast a lovely panoramic view of the surrounding Chianti hills.
