5 bedrooms villa, 470 m²

Casole d'Elsa, Siena (province)

In the most authentic Tuscan countryside, just a few minutes from the medieval village of Casole d’Elsa, in the province of Siena, and only 15 minutes from the Florence–Siena ring road, stands this charming renovated farmhouse, immersed in a landscape of rolling hills and endless horizons.

The property, the subject of careful conservative restoration over the years, has managed to preserve with care the original characteristics of the structure, maintaining its authentic character intact.
Ancient traces tell of a suggestive past: it seems that the building was originally a place of prayer, inhabited by friars or religious, a detail that is still perceived today in the intimate and spiritual atmosphere that envelops the entire complex.

Perched on a hill with a dominant view of the valley, the FARMHOUSE welcomes you with a large barn entrance that leads to the main door and a delightful terrace connected to a bright gallery/studio. On the same side are the original ancient oven, perfectly preserved, the boiler room, a tool shed and an external bathroom serving the swimming pool.

Crossing the threshold, a generous hallway introduces to the living area. On the right opens a large living room, flooded with natural light and with direct access to the outside. In the center, the undisputed protagonist, a refined soapstone stove which, together with the heating system, guarantees a constant and enveloping heat, making the environment particularly welcoming. From the living room you can access the kitchen, large and well-kept, perfectly integrated into the rustic-elegant context of the home.
Going down a few steps from the kitchen you reach a scenographic dining room, surprising for its height and for the panoramic view it offers of the surrounding countryside.
Adjacent, a relaxation lounge with a second soapstone stove, as well as a bathroom and toilet, creates an intimate and cozy space.
From the dining room you access the loggia and the terrace, authentic strong points of the property, from which you enjoy an extraordinary view and an incomparable sense of peace.
Above the lounge, accessible also from an external entrance, develops the gallery/studio that leads to the sleeping area: a large central hallway distributes 5 bedrooms, of which two are particularly spacious, and three bathrooms, offering comfortable and well-organized environments, ideal both for the family and for hospitality.

Below the loggia and the terrace are two rooms used as a cellar/warehouse and a cistern for collecting water, elements that underline the authentic rural character of the property.

The heating is powered by LPG and is connected with the solar thermal system located above the veranda for water supply, in addition to the solar panels located to the west for electricity.
The water supply is municipal, in addition to two private wells for the maintenance of the surrounding greenery.

Completes the whole a large SALT SWIMMING POOL, perfectly integrated into the landscape, surrounded by over 3 hectares and 2000 sq m of land, divided between a garden with fruit trees, an olive grove and a wood: a natural context that guarantees privacy, harmony and a deep connection with the land.

This residence represents the ideal choice for those who wish to live the tranquility and beauty of the Tuscan countryside without giving up the convenience of connections, savoring every day the history, the charm and the authentic soul of a unique place.
