Tuscan Triptych Chianciano Terme, Tuscany

Property Description

Nestled among verdant hillsides, woodland and olive groves, this location couldn't be more Tuscan if it tried and the home itself is entirely in keeping with local traditions. Having been recently restored, the former farmhouse is full of lovingly preserved rustic features, from the wooden beams in the high vaulted ceilings and the terracotta tiling underfoot to the arched windows and the furniture made by local crafters.

However, the host hasn't been afraid to tastefully integrate modern amenities, too — you only have to look at the swimming pool at the bottom of the garden to see what we mean. Sticking around outside, there's a verandah with a table underneath that was just made for languorous alfresco feasts, as well as superb views of Val di Chiana and Trasimeno Lake, which can also be admired from the balcony.

In surrounding southern Tuscany, there's a great range of attractions nearby, such as the thermal baths of Multepicano just over ten minutes away by car and the paths of Riserva Naturale Lucciola Bella taking closer to twenty. The city of Perugia is just over an hour away, too.
