Nestled in the Pisan hills, this Tuscan home is ideal for a rural retreat. While the interior lacks natural light in places, it’s a comfortable and well-equipped home for up to eight guests with the added bonus of en-suites for all the bedrooms. And, step outdoors and you’ll see why this home caught our eye. With views of the surrounding countryside, there are sunny and shady spots aplenty to relax and enjoy the Mediterranean climate, along with a private pool to cool off and barbecue for alfresco dinners.
