Located in the heart of Chianti Classico, in the village of Romola (Comune of San Casciano Val di Pesa); important Florentine families lived here, who in the summertime would move from the city of Florence, which is only 10km away, to their villas that they used as vacation homes. Villa Treggiaia is also an excellent base for exploring the nearby attractions of Florence, Impruneta and Greve in Chianti, all easily reached by car or bus but also the most beautiful Tuscan cites of Siena, San Gimignano, Vinci, Volterra, Lucca, Livorno, Arezzo, all easily reachable by car on a day trip. In the immediate surroundings many farms for visiting wineries, wine tasting and special dinners. The enchanting view and the peace of the countryside make Villa Treggiaia a truly unique place. The interiors of the house are characterised by ceilings in coffered wood or frescoed with Renaissance motifs and painted walls. The charm of the furnishings, personally cared for by the lady of the house, creates an authentic atmosphere. The interior is organised on two levels to which the tower is added and the large living room on the ground floor leads out to an external area with a gazebo for outdoor dining. The swimming pool, just 20 m from the house, enjoys an intimate position surrounded by the olive grove. Please note.
