Property 1651263687 - VOLTERRA

3 Bedrooms

Location and Surrounding Area
Immersed in the peaceful Tuscan countryside, this modern property is ideally located to explore the region’s cultural highlights and most spectacular natural wonders. With breathtaking views over the surrounding countryside, this exclusive three-bedroom villa is the perfect spot for unforgettable day trips to the most beautiful towns in Tuscany and offers a unique opportunity to admire its splendid landscapes while soaking up the region’s rich historical and cultural heritage.

The villa is a stone’s throw from Volterra, one of Tuscany’s most dramatic hilltop towns. Despite its many attractions, Volterra sees fewer tourists than other Tuscan towns, so you can expect to share its winding stone streets with locals and explore its ancient sites without crowds. Founded by the Etruscans and surrounded by medieval walls, Volterra has a notable historic centre filled with fascinating Roman ruins, medieval buildings, and alabaster workshops.

The villa is also a few kilometres from San Gimignano, one of the best-preserved medieval towns in Italy. From afar, San Gimignano looks like a town from a Renaissance painting: a circle of 13th-century walls enclosing tall, teetering stone towers. Its towers make it instantly recognisable, but the art treasures held within its walls are just as remarkable. Although the town is small, there is enough art, architecture, and fine food to keep you busy for more than one day.

The villa is also a few kilometres from the medieval town of Siena. Its ancient red brick buildings, the scallop-shaped main square Piazza del Campo, and the Cathedral Square, dominated by the zebra-striped Duomo, make it an absolute must for anyone travelling to Tuscany. Effectively an open-air museum celebrating the Gothic, Siena boasts secular monuments that have retained both their medieval forms and their exceptional art collections, providing plenty to marvel at.

In one hour by car, you can reach Pisa, exceptionally well-known for its Leaning Tower. Moving between its alleys and riversides, you will discover architectural jewels such as Santa Maria della Spina, the headquarters of the Scuola Normale Superiore in Piazza dei Cavalieri, the exhibitions of Palazzo Blu, and the magnetic charm of Piazza dei Miracoli. Start from the Baptistery and head to the 130-metre Camposanto Monumentale overlooking the square.

Property 1651263687 is 70 km from Pisa Galileo Galilei International Airport, 72 km from Florence Amerigo Vespucci International Airport, 162 km from Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport, and 313 km from Rome Leonardo da Vinci International Airport.
