Water to Wine Florence, Tuscany

Property Description

Nestled into miles of olives groves and vineyards stands this traditional Tuscan farmhouse. Built with rustic stone walls, enriched by wide stone arches and teracotta floors, this home is everything you could want from a blissful Tuscan getaway. We particularly love the olive green shutters and how the hazy, reddish hue travels through the home. Not to mention the neverending, sweeping view of the Chianti hills that roll on for miles.

With ample seating outside across three terraces, you won't be stuck for places to relax and enjoy the panoramic views of the countryside. Enjoy local glasses of wine, a cold beer, or even whizz up a frozen cocktail to be enjoyed poolside. Gliding through these crystalline waters is something special when you have *that* view. Embrace the Tuscan lifestyle and tuck into group lunches alfresco on the outdoor dining table, which is covered by a woven pergola. You'll love how the surrounding forestry and countryside blend perfectly with the home as you enjoy delicious sides made with local produce and sumptuous barbecues. Dinnertime is perfect here, too. Or you can fully immerse yourself in the laidback Tuscan lifestyle and let your host arrange a chef for you. And you could always go to a local restaurant, the closest being an eight-minute drive away, but you've got the best seat in the Chianti hills right at home. Although you might not want to leave this idyllic farmhouse, a trip to Tuscany isn't complete without a wine tour. You're just under a twenty-minute drive from Poggi del Chianti, a traditional winery that offers a rustic, local experience.
