The vacation house lies in a woody verdant valley overlooking the picturesque towers of Volterra. The garden boasting green lawns stretches down to the generously sized swimming pool 15×7 mt. where you can relax in the sun, listening to the sound of nature. An unique opportunity for Tuscany’s lovers to enjoy the sounds, the colours and the smells of this beautiful country.
Just a short drive from the main historical and cultural cities, like Florence, Siena, Pisa, San Gimignano, Volterra, the house offers rewarding opportunities for exploring the region, without giving up to the peaceful and relaxing rural life.
Set on a hilltop, about 400mt. above sea level, the house is protected from the cold north wind and exposed to the west, towards the sea, thus benefiting of the healthy Mistral which ensures nice temperatures all the year round while providing a cool sea flavour.
