Casanova

On the limit line dividing Tuscany's Val d'Orcia and Val di Chiana, a restored podere, tastefully transformed into a family retreat, with great lawns dotted with mature olive groves and enclosed by shade-bearing oak trees.
The 700 sq m home hosts 6 bedrooms, all ensuite, spread out on the top two storeys of the farmhouse, with 2 more in the adjacent guesthouse, sided in turn by the 10x5 m swimming pool and awning. A vast country kitchen and spacious dining room adjoining the living area and billiard room, lead to a snug cantina, outfitted for wine tastings.
The bedrooms are air-conditioned while the ancient walls ensure coolness downstairs. A second, brand-new and larger guesthouse counts 2 private ensuite bedrooms, a wellness area with sauna and Jacuzzi, all with view onto the hills and the town of Montepulciano. The three silos towers, once used for storing grain, have recently been converted into a Spa for massages and vinotherapy (look it up!).
