I Tebaldi - Eight Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 18

Immersed in glorious Tuscan landscapes, set in a vast 300-hectare estate of woodland and rolling fields, I Tebaldi is a magnificent villa just half an hour from the artistic city of Florence, very close to The Mall and other designer outlets selling luxury brands.

Originally the site of a 16th century historic home, the current owners have spent many recent years reconstructing and restoring I Tebaldi to its former glory. Furnished in a classic yet refined style, great attention to detail has been paid to the atmosphere of this relaxing home where the views of the surrounding scenery are wonderful. Unwind under the characterful arches in the living space, dine looking out to captivating valley vistas and prepare feasts in the brilliantly equipped kitchen, also ideal for cookery classes or a private chef. Upstairs, five air-conditioned bedrooms feature mini-bars, safes and satellite TV as well as elegant en suite shower rooms.

Just adjacent to the villa, the barn has also been attractively restored with oak parquet flooring and wood beams painted white to exude a fresh yet characterful ambience. Over two floors, three further en suite bedrooms, all with air-conditioning, allow up to 16 guests to stay across this grand abode.

Enjoy yet more remarkable landscapes from the upper garden terrace, perfect for al-fresco dining or just admiring the Tuscan views whilst pretty steps lead down to the enticing salt-water swimming pool which can be heated on request. Look out towards the olive trees scattered on the lawns as you relax on the sun-loungers whilst more energetic guests can make the most of the gym equipment in the nearby annexe. A 4-person sauna adds an extra touch of luxury to complete this amazing home.

Set out for walks across vast grounds, look out for deer roaming free, wander through the oak forests and be mesmerised by the extraordinary scenery. The estate also includes Casa Marlena and Villino Lepre - each villa is privately positioned and a short drive from each other, perhaps ideal for families or friends wanting to travel together yet retain their own privacy.

A short drive brings you to a small supermarket and local restaurants as well as the famous designer outlet malls selling Gucci, D&G, Burberry and other high-end names. The mighty city of Florence itself is just half an hour by car whilst the artistic treasures of Arezzo are also waiting to be discovered within an hour.

Spend time exploring the vineyards of Chianti, head a little further to sample Vino Nobile in Montepulciano or come across idyllic hilltop villages and towns including well-known places such as San Gimignano, Empoli and of course Siena. In the heart of the Tuscan countryside, this really is a picture-perfect setting for getting to know this enchanting and world-famous part of Italy.

Location:

I Tebaldi is part of a vast estate covering 300 hectares of woodland, fields, hills and a mountain stream, a beautiful rural location yet just over 2km from the famous shopping centre The Mall and half an hour by car from Florence.

Set off for walks from your doorstep where you can immerse yourself in the beauty of the Valdarno region, south-east of Florence. The estate is a licensed hunting area - wild animals roam free in this wonderfully natural setting. The vast estate also includes Casa Marlena and Villino Lepre - all three villas are privately positioned and a short drive from each other, perhaps ideal for families wanting to travel together yet retain their own privacy.

A short drive away are the nearest amenities such as a small supermarket and a handful of restaurants whilst the shopping outlets are also incredibly close by – look out for Gucci, D&G, Burberry and many more within a 2 to 4km drive.  

As well as visiting magnificent Florence (32km), you are also perfectly positioned for heading to Arezzo, an incredible city famous for its artistic heritage including Piero della Francesca’s frescoes on the ceiling of San Francesco Basilica. Following in Dante’s footsteps, also look out for wonderful Tuscan villages across the Casentino valley, around an hour away.

Wine-lovers rejoice in the close proximity of many of Tuscany’s famous vineyards with idyllic Chianti villages nearby such as Greve (28km), Radda (40km) and Castellina in Chianti (47km). Heading further south, the exquisite hilltop town of Montepulciano is around an hour away, surrounded by the captivating vineyards that produce the world-famous Vino Nobile.

Other gorgeous villages and towns to discover include Empoli, San Miniato and San Gimignano, all within an hour, or soak up the historic ambience of Certaldo (63km). Of course, the great city of Siena (75km) with its impressive piazza and enchanting duomo is also just over an hour by car.

Golf-lovers take note that Circolo Golf dell'Ugolino is only 30km away whilst keen hikers can venture even further from the estate and drive up towards the Pratomagno mountain range for yet more incredible treks.
