Property Summary
Nestled just 3 kilometers from the historic center of Siena, in the heart of Italy's most celebrated landscape, this extraordinary vacation rental offers an unparalleled experience of Tuscan luxury and tranquility. Set on a panoramic hill and surrounded by rolling terrain dotted with vineyards, olive groves, and cultivated fields, the property commands breathtaking views stretching as far as Monte Amiata and the iconic Torre del Mangia. At the heart of the estate stands a farmhouse of ancient origins, masterfully transformed into a refined luxury residence where exposed stone, natural wood, and contemporary materials create an elegant dialogue between historic tradition and minimalist design. Large, light-filled interior spaces, rooms with private bathrooms, and carefully curated furnishings ensure the highest level of comfort throughout. The property is equipped with fast Wi-Fi connectivity, making it as functional as it is beautiful, while a generous private parking area located at the end of the internal avenue ensures effortless arrivals and departures. The estate is enclosed within a beautifully maintained park of approximately 1,500 square meters, complete with manicured lawns, aromatic hedgerows, and scenic walkways, offering guests an immersive natural retreat with every modern convenience at hand. An automatic access gate provides security and privacy, completing the sense of an exclusive and self-contained sanctuary just moments from one of Italy's most celebrated cities.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of this remarkable estate are nothing short of extraordinary, offering a seamless blend of natural beauty, thoughtful design, and recreational abundance. The park surrounding the farmhouse has been crafted by expert hands, featuring sinuous pathways lined with aromatic bushes of lavender, rosemary, myrtle, and sage, interspersed with young olive and cypress trees and broad expanses of manicured lawn. Two panoramic gazebos, positioned on either side of the house, provide shaded retreats with sweeping views, while a charming seating area at the entrance to the solarium invites quiet relaxation. Families with children will appreciate the dedicated play area, and a ping pong table adds a playful touch to the outdoor experience.

Description
Property Summary
Nestled in the serene Tuscan countryside close to the renowned medieval borgo of San Miniato, in Italy, Villa Paesante is a prestigious manor house that embodies the timeless elegance and warm hospitality of the Tuscan tradition. Already documented in 17th-century maps drawn up by the Medici family, this historic two-floor villa has been meticulously restored and furnished to offer guests an extraordinary vacation rental experience. The careful restoration work carried out by the owner seamlessly blends the historicity of the property with the comfort of a refined tourist facility, incorporating authentic traditional materials such as Impruneta terracotta, cypress-wood beam ceilings, and stone staircases, all enhanced by warm, characteristic colour palettes. The villa is surrounded by a lush, expansive garden that provides complete privacy and a sense of peaceful seclusion, making it an ideal retreat for those seeking tranquility amidst the iconic Tuscan hills. Guests benefit from a generous private yard that alternates areas of manicured lawn with elegant white gravel paths, while a dedicated parking area is conveniently located not far from the villa. Internet Wi-Fi connectivity is available throughout the property, ensuring that guests remain connected during their stay without compromising the sense of escape that Villa Paesante so naturally provides.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Villa Paesante are a true celebration of the Tuscan landscape, offering guests a rich variety of environments in which to relax, explore, and entertain. The expansive park is enclosed by tall trees planted around its perimeter, guaranteeing complete privacy while welcoming guests with a well-kept lawn enriched by pines, cypresses, typical Tuscan plants, and a variety of medicinal and aromatic herbs. Multicoloured floral essences and fragrant blooms frame the outdoor areas, creating a sensory experience unique to this part of Tuscany. A shaded portico serves as the heart of outdoor living, housing an elegant relaxation area furnished with armchairs and an outdoor dining area complete with a mobile barbecue, all facing the park. Guests are also invited to enjoy a ping-pong table, a table football area, and a billiard table located in the annex adjacent to the pool, making the outdoor spaces equally suited to leisure and entertainment. At the centre of the garden sits the splendid rectangular swimming pool, measuring 5 x 9 metres with a depth ranging from 1.20 to 1.80 metres. The non-heated pool is lined in sea-blue PVC and features salt purification, internal lighting, and Roman steps on one side for easy water access. A terracotta solarium fully equipped with sunbeds surrounds the pool, shaded by maritime pines that lend the area an atmosphere of natural elegance. The pool is open from the last Saturday of April to the first Saturday of October. Guests are kindly reminded that photographs of the property are typically taken in spring, and therefore the colours, blooms, and appearance of the gardens and lawns may vary at the time of arrival.
