About this house

Nestled in a 16th-century farmhouse, this apartment has been restored using natural materials and offers an authentic Tuscan experience just a stone's throw from Florence. The ancient stone walls keep the rooms cool in summer, while underfloor heating ensures comfort in winter.

The interior is spread over two levels, with a bright open-plan space on the ground floor combining a fully equipped kitchen and living room, overlooking the garden through French doors. Upstairs, you will find two bedrooms, one with a private bathroom and views of the valley, the other with cypress flooring.

The garden opens onto 13 hectares of biodynamically cultivated land, where you can stroll among olive groves, lavender, sage, and rosemary hedges, vineyards, and ancient wheat fields. The property is an example of sustainable architecture, with solar panels and a rainwater recovery system.

Located in the Travalle Archaeological Agricultural Park, the farmhouse is the ideal starting point for excursions to the Calvana mountains, a protected area for its flora and fauna. The location is strategic for visiting the main art cities of Tuscany such as Florence, Siena, San Gimignano, and Chianti.
