Description
Property Summary
Nestled on a hilltop near San Gimignano, in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, Villa Bel Panorama is a beautifully restored farmhouse originally built as a barn in 1620. Over the centuries, this remarkable property has been thoughtfully expanded and renovated to honor its original architecture, preserving distinctive features such as exposed wooden beams, thick stone walls, and fossil shells embedded in the external façade. The result is a timeless Tuscan villa that seamlessly blends historic character with modern comforts, making it an exceptional vacation rental for up to 8 guests. Furnished with a curated mix of artwork, contemporary furniture, and antiques, the villa commands breathtaking views over the Val d'Elsa and the iconic Tuscan ridges dotted with cypress trees, olive groves, and vineyards. The property extends across approximately 3,000 square meters of terraced grounds, fully fenced and thoughtfully landscaped across three distinct garden levels. Guests enjoy access to a heated outdoor swimming pool, a lush yard with Mediterranean vegetation, complimentary Wi-Fi throughout the property, and a dedicated parking area accommodating up to 4 vehicles on the upper terrace.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Villa Bel Panorama are designed to invite relaxation and contemplation at every turn. Stone-paved paths wind through the property, connecting the villa to its various surrounding areas and offering multiple viewpoints over the rolling Tuscan hills. The upper terrace is home to a traditional olive grove alongside the parking area. The central terrace features a well-maintained lawn adorned with Mediterranean shrubs, holm oaks, oleanders, aromatic herbs, and a jujube tree, creating a fragrant and verdant retreat. A covered panoramic porch provides an elegant setting for outdoor dining, while a circular brick barbecue on the lower garden level adds a rustic touch perfect for al fresco evenings. The lower terrace is dedicated entirely to the pool and solarium. The rectangular heated swimming pool measures 9 x 4.5 meters with a constant depth of 1.30 meters, finished with light-colored PVC and accessed via a Roman staircase. The water is heated to an approximate temperature of 26 to 28 degrees Celsius, subject to a minimum outside temperature of 20 degrees Celsius, and is equipped with an automatic solar cover operated by remote control, as well as an automatic internal lighting system with a twilight sensor. The pool operates from the last week of April to the first week of October. The surrounding solarium is paved with terracotta and framed by Mediterranean herbs and broom hedges, and is furnished with sun loungers and tables. Please note that the photo shoots are usually carried out in spring, so the colors and blooms of the gardens, lawns, and park may differ from what you encounter upon arrival.

The beautiful Etruscan Coast and the renowned seaside destination of Versilia are also accessible for those wishing to combine countryside relaxation with time by the sea.
Within the estate itself, guests have access to a wide range of leisure activities. Golf enthusiasts can practice on the four-tiered driving range located very close to the house. Hiking and cycling trails wind through the property along scenic dirt roads flanked by vineyards and olive groves, leading to a large wooded area with 3 dedicated birdwatching stations. The on-site wine cellars and restaurant, just a few steps from the house, offer guests the opportunity to sample the estate's own products, including an excellent Chianti from the Pisan hills, extra virgin olive oil, and traditional Tuscan dishes prepared with locally sourced ingredients.
