Villa

Fenice is a traditional Tuscan villa set among rolling hills, olive groves and open countryside, offering space, privacy and beautiful panoramic views. It is ideally placed for exploring Tuscany by car or train, while still enjoying a peaceful rural setting, with a local pizzeria and small shop within walking distance. 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms sleeping 8 + 2

The villa sits within extensive private grounds and features a large swimming pool measuring 12m x 5.5m, with both shallow and deep ends, suitable for adults and children alike. The outdoor areas are designed for easy holiday living and include a covered BBQ and outdoor dining area, wide lawns, a children's play area, a ping-pong table and a hammock, making it easy to spend long summer days outdoors.

Inside, Fenice is welcoming and comfortable, with generous living spaces, a fully equipped kitchen and several areas where everyone can relax together. The bedrooms are spacious and simply furnished, offering a cool and restful place to unwind after days exploring the region. Air conditioning is available in the bedrooms to ensure comfortable sleeping during the warmer summer months.

Note that 2 of the 4 bedrooms are set on the first floor, and 2 on the second floor, making property ideal for two families. Note due to layout the second floor is ideal for either a family or a group of children rather than 2 couples.

Despite its peaceful rural setting, Fenice has the rare advantage of a local pizzeria and small shop within walking distance. A wider choice of restaurants, villages and amenities can be reached within a short drive. The villa is well located for visiting Castiglion Fiorentino, Cortona and Arezzo, making it an excellent base for discovering this part of Tuscany.

Fenice is particularly well suited to guests who enjoy exploring by car, with easy access to the Valdichiana and surrounding towns. A local train station is also 10 minutes by car, providing a convenient option for day trips without driving.

Additional features include private parking within the property, good privacy throughout the grounds and plenty of space for both adults and children to relax and enjoy a true Tuscan atmosphere.
