Cradled in the Tuscan Hills where Florence can be found only a short drive away, this beautiful home draws inspiration from the Renaissance the region is known for. Spot the influence in everything from the art to the carefully curated furniture as you wander the home looking for the perfect spot to read – we recommend the library or the drawing room where you’re mostly surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows that let the light and sunshine in. Combined with the rustic charm of exposed beams and brickwork, this home feels homely enough that you can completely release and unwind as you spend afternoons drinking wine under the vine-covered pergola. This coincidentally also makes for the perfect spot to enjoy meals alfresco – try antipasto of Caprese, crostini, bruschetta, and more. Afternoon walks in the garden can be followed by a few laps in the Olympic-size, private pool before hours of sunbathing. Take in the views off the Florentine Hills from the balcony when you’re enjoying drinks at sunset and take a stroll out to the metal gazebo to do a bit of last-minute stargazing before turning in for the night.
