N° 006 | Historic Villa Tuscany
A family history dating back to the 16th century
The owner of this beautiful, historic villa is the Pometty Family. They are direct descendants of the Socini family, well-known bankers, notaries, and theologians since the 14th century, and the Ricci family, a wealthy middle-class farming family. In the 16th century the Church, in response to their anti-Trinitarian doctrine, confiscated the properties purchased by the brothers Lelio and Fausto Socini.
Centuries passed until, in 1919, Livio Socini proudly bought back part of the property in the municipality of Trequanda. The last member of the Socini family was the current owner's extremely strict great-grandmother, Maria. In the early seventies, Maria encouraged her son to pursue his “rural” dreams and he opened one of the very first “agriturismo” in the whole of Tuscany!
The Ricci family, instead, originally hailed from Pistoia and came to Buonconvento in the second half of the 1800s when Luigi, a supporter of the Carbonari independence movement, took refuge in the nearby Monte Oliveto Maggiore abbey to escape arrest. At the beginning of the 20th century, Raffaello Ricci purchased property in the municipalities of Asciano and Buoconvento from the noble Piccolomini family.
Through perseverance and determination eventually, all the properties were back in the family. In the past ten years, the two talented sisters Carlotta and Vittoria have taken over the running of the estate, which was pieced back together with enormous effort and hard work to restore the identity to what it was in the past and at the same time looking to the future.
The Space
The building, which dates back to 1600, was originally restored in 1802 and then from 1995 to 2000.
The Villa is surrounded by beautiful gardens with a stunning view over the countryside from Siena to Monte Amiata. There is a large swimming pool with sun chairs to relax and there are several lounge areas and outdoor terraces, a pizza oven for guests to use, a kitchen as well as a large catering kitchen.
Inside are the spacious living rooms with elegant ceilings and authentic family furniture which convey an old-world, charming, rural Tuscan atmosphere. You can feel the history in these rooms. Additionally, there is a family dining room as well as a large dining room for larger groups or parties with a traditional fireplace in the middle. The large dining room is surrounded by windows and stunning views over The Val D'Orcia which is considered to be the most beautiful countryside in the world (in 2004 it was named a UNESCO World Heritage).
Upstairs are the bedrooms, the Villa is divided into nine double bedrooms and two triple rooms, all ensuite, with Wi-Fi in common areas, air conditioning, and central heating.
In the garden surrounding the Villa, are two additional buildings. There is a traditional “Bellaria” (4 pax.) brick building which has been converted into a comfortable apartment with two bedrooms and there is "Poderono”(6 pax.), divided in the ”Suite Ada”, on the first floor, and the ”Salvia” apartment on the ground floor which can host up to four people.
