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. We can picture it already, sitting out on the sunlounger simply basking in the sunshine and fresh air whilst you admire the incredible vistas. Then there’s the location itself which puts you on the doorstep of many of the finest wineries of the region. Sample all the farms and vineyards have to offer, or go on a hike when you’re in the mood to reconnect with nature. 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. If it’s a fire you want, however, light it up in the barbecue outside where you can enjoy everything you brought back from the cellars and shops.
