Property Description

In the historical center of Radda in Chianti, in the heart of the Chianti wine district (Florence 45km, Siena 35km), with a fastastic panoramic view, we offer this apartment for rent, fully renovated and furnished, only on weekly or montly basis.

Speaking of Tuscany and Chianti our thoughts fly immediately over the rolling hills adorned with vines, cypresses and olive trees, a few kilometers from the architectural and artistic beauties of Florence and Siena.

Our territory has so far, to the foresight of its inhabitants over the centuries, saved the characteristics of a time: a countryside worked and well maintained, excellent wine known throughout the world, the sweetness of landscapes represented by innumerable books and movies.

Then just imagine for a moment to look out from any panoramic point, perhaps at sunset while sipping a glass of wine at the center of this postcard field are the big, beautiful farmhouses, Renaissance villas which have seen in their history distinguished guests, barns perfectly restored for modern use, small towns, well kept with their inhabitants who have always passed down thru centuries-old trades.

Over the last 40 years this area has from one side learned to open itself to the world, also thanks to many foreign investors coming from far away countries that have chosen to stay in this corner of paradise, while on the other hand the landscape has kept intact its secular features. A mix so difficult to find elsewhere, accompanied by the mild climate which nevertheless well represented here see the four seasons: hot summers, rainy winters just where the temperature rarely drops below zero, beautiful spring blossoms, fall color with magic.

Daily public buses to Siena and Florence. Public free parking at 200 meters distance.

As the apartment is located on top panoramic position, there are 15 steps to rise from main street.

The famous Tuscan DOCG labelled wine, Chianti Classico is produced in a particular part of the Chianti region between Florence and Siena. One of the super Tuscan wines, Chianti Classico has been made here since Etruscan times and stands out from the rest because of its unique pink logo with a black rooster seal on all of its bottles.

Book a beautiful villa in Chianti with a swimming pool to experience a lavish holiday in comfort while you sip the area's magnificent wine.

The story behind this seal is derived from a comical legend that dates back to the 13th century in this area. Florence and Siena fought bitterly for the ideal grape growing land of Chianti and decided to end their disagreement in a strange way.

Very Good 4^/5 Villa Review Rating Details

The owner is VERY helpful [even though he lives in Florence, but does have an office in Radda, and does return phone calls], which is v. necessary on moving in or out, since the 'accessibility' description is not very accurate. One can, theoretically, drive to within 10m of the apt, IF you have a small enough car [as the owner does], but only in the AM. Our Fiat 500L would never have made it. The parking [over the city wall beyond the apt] was definitely more than 100 m, including a long flight of stairs. The location is v. convenient in one respect, being 10 m from the city info office, whose staff is good in English and helpful in absolutely any way that you would desire. The location is challenging for senior seniors since it is uphill from everywhere, w/. a final long flight of stairs to enter the apt. The apt. is somewhat under furnished, w/. only two comfortable seats in the LR, but the BRs and baths are fine, and there is a PC. The owner [keyholder] speaks English well, but is v. busy, so you must get him to slow down, e. g., while explaining the washing machine.
