With resplendent views of rolling hills from the comfort of a shaded infinity pool, this tiered stone villa is a Tuscan gem. The home is comprised of two independent apartments, affording your group some extra privacy. This design quirk also means there are two kitchens and two living rooms to choose from, though only one bedroom has an en-suite bathroom. There are several stylish outdoor spaces for socialising, including sun-kissed dining terraces, smaller tables for morning espresso, and the truly stunning pool area with loungers and panoramic vistas for you to appreciate. You'll also be only 200 metres from a celebrated local restaurant, while idyllic Gaiole in Chianti is a five minute drive away.
