No. 094 | A Timeless Farmhouse
Tucked away in a secluded valley among the rolling Chianti hills, this elegant six-bedroom farmhouse tells a story of family, craftsmanship, and quiet Tuscan beauty. Once a traditional rural estate, it has been lovingly restored into a soulful home where contemporary comfort meets rustic charm. With bold colours, vintage pieces, and a hint of bohemian flair, every room reflects the personality and passion of its owners — a perfect blend of warmth, artistry, and refinement.
The Space
Spread across two floors, the main house is bathed in natural light, designed with thoughtful attention to texture, tone, and detail. At its heart is a generous double-height sitting room, where an open fireplace and soft, inviting furniture create a space to gather, read, or share long dinners around the table for fourteen. A cosy snug offers a quieter retreat with Sky and Netflix, while the fully equipped kitchen — with its range cooker, double fridges, and every tool a cook could dream of — celebrates the pleasure of slow, seasonal cooking.
A larder, wine store, and laundry room add to the home’s practical ease, making it ideal for families or groups of friends seeking a truly lived-in Tuscan experience.

The farmhouse comfortably sleeps 18 guests across six bedrooms, each with its own charm and character:

Garden Capanna (Guest Bedroom 7):

Every bedroom reflects the farmhouse’s bohemian elegance, with thoughtful design, bold colours, and attention to detail, creating a restful, welcoming space for every guest
Outdoor Living
The farmhouse opens onto 33 hectares of private land, with rolling lawns, rosemary and roses, and the scent of lavender carried by the breeze. The infinity pool (14 x 7m) stretches toward the valley, inviting long afternoons under the Tuscan sun.
There’s a boules piste, a ping pong table, and a generous pergola shaded by vines — the perfect setting for a leisurely tavolata lunch. Two marble tables seat up to eighteen guests for dinners that linger into the evening.
A vegetable garden and chicken coop offer fresh produce and eggs, while the surrounding olive and fruit trees complete the sense of living in rhythm with the land.
The Surroundings
The villa lies deep in the Chianti region, just outside Gaiole in Chianti, a small town known for its local shops, family-run trattorias, and the famous Eroica vintage cycling race. Nearby are Siena, Radda, Castellina, and Arezzo — each steeped in history, markets, and timeless Italian life.
Guests can spend days wandering through vineyards, discovering nearby hilltop towns, or simply staying close, walking through the olive groves and enjoying the stillness of nature.
