VILLA STRONCOLI 16

Toscana - Siena - RAPOLANO TERME

Description:

RECEPTIVE STRUCTURE. Villa Stroncoli is part of the Mansalto estate, a land that extends for about two thousand hectares between the municipalities of Bucine, Monte San Savino, Rapolano Terme and Castelnuovo Berardenga. Around the villa it is possible to practice sports and enjoy extraordinary natural landscapes. In addition, the area is renowned for the production of oil and wine. The property reflects all the charm of old Tuscan buildings of the 15th century, still visible in the stratification of the buildings and in the original architecture, which has remained intact, starting from the piano nobile or main floor, which has remained on the first floor as it was originally. All the bedrooms in the villa are equipped with air conditioning and have a bathroom available, ensuite or adjacent. In the annex located next to the main building is the wellness area with an internal gym and a spacious whirlpool tub that can accommodate up to ten people, lined in blue mosaic. From here, your gaze extends over the swimming pool to the green cultivated hills beyond, with a wonderful view of Siena and the crete (clay badlands), Monte Amiata and Monte Cetona. Thanks to the secluded but strategic location of Villa Stroncoli, art cities such as Arezzo and Siena are within easy reach. The town of Monte San Savino, about 11 km away, is rich in history and art and offers its visitors most services such as bars, restaurants, museums and supermarkets.
