Private Villa mit Klimaanlage, WLAN, Pool im Herzen des Chianti (Toskana)

Villa dell’abate, located between Florence & Siena in the Chianti region of Italy. It is a beautifully restored historic residence, ideal for both a peaceful family gathering and for an active vacation aimed at experiencing the best of Tuscan lifestyle. After a busy day of sightseeing, spend some time with friends and family poolside enjoying a glass of wine - a perfect way to unwind at the end the day.

Numerous traces of Tuscany’s centuries old culture can be seen in its landscape: the unique architectural evidence of the region’s long, powerful history has contributed to creating charming views that have remained unchanged over the centuries, never ceasing to excite and astonish visitors. Badia di Passignano, in the heart of the Chianti district, is one of these magical places, an impressive, isolated architectural structure that stands out against the landscape, surrounded by cypress trees, silhouetted against the hills, vineyards, olive-groves and woods. Villa la Badia is one of several properties that originally belonged to the Badia or monastery which, over the years, were transformed into prestigious dwellings, creating a small, very exclusive and private residential area. The villa has the solid stone structure of a Tuscan farmhouse with a small turret-dovecote. Its elevated position offers 360° views of the surrounding hills that are covered in woods with occasional breaks to reveal cultivated fields. The recently completed renovation work shows the care, passion and excellent taste that the owner, an interior designer, has dedicated to this property, preserving the original materials, using antique elements, such as doors and fireplaces, and carefully choosing the furnishings, fittings and fabrics, which have been sourced from all over the world: the end result is truly surprising, a balanced blend of elegance, refinement and comfort, that makes this villa a truly exclusive destination. Outside, in addition to the furnished reserved areas where guests can sit and eat outdoors, the ancient basin that used to be a washtub has been transformed into a magnificent 18 x 4.5 meter swimming pool, with salt water chlorination. The villa’s isolated position offers guests the chance to experience a truly peaceful and relaxing holiday (the property is reached by following a dirt road that climbs uphill for the last 500 meters).

Property includes A/C, Wifi, & Private pool and can accommodate up to 14 guests comfortably in 6 bedrooms & 5 bathrooms.
