Description:

PRIVATE STRUCTURE (lease only - CIR CODE: 051025LTI0004; CIN CODE: IT051025B4RQQHGTVO). Antica Villa Merelli is a prestigious manor house located in the heart of Tuscany. It was built at the end of the 16th century and has been beautifully renovated by the current owners, respecting the original architecture and using quality materials such as marble for the splendid floors and pietra serena for the decor, for some bathrooms and for the imposing staircase that connects the three floors of the villa. Each room has been extremely well curated, with great attention to detail, to give guests moments of peace and relaxation in an elegant and refined, but at the same time warm and welcoming, environment. Located on a small hill, about 250 m above sea level, it is the ideal place for those who dream of a historic villa with a touch of modernity, in a quiet location surrounded by greenery and by a park of centuries-old holm oaks, where you can enjoy long peaceful walks immersed in the silence of nature. However, all amenities that will make your stay at Antica Villa Merelli unforgettable are present, including air conditioning in the bedrooms. This splendid property consists of the main villa of about 800 sq m, an annex divided into 2 apartments of 100 sq m each, a large rectangular, 25 m-long pool with an infinity side, salt purification and relaxation areas, a synthetic-grass tennis court, pleasant outdoor areas where you can relax and admire the surrounding countryside, a gazebo adorned with scented climbing jasmine and set up with tables between the villa and the swimming pool. In front of the main entrance is another large table under the shade of centuries-old holm oaks, perfect for pleasant alfresco meals. Here the love for art can be felt everywhere and it is an important element that is also found in the magnificent fresco, recently created by a local artist in the beautiful entrance hall on the ground floor of the villa: a scale reproduction of one of the frescoes that make up the very important cycle of the “Legend of the True Cross” (which can be visited in Arezzo) one of the highest expressions of Italian art, the work of the great artist Piero della Francesca. Another important testimony to the owners' artistic passion is the decoration of all the doors of the main villa: each one is unique and hand painted by local artists with different reproductions of famous Italian and European works of art. The villa is situated in an excellent position, halfway between the picturesque medieval borgo of Monte San Savino and the splendid town of Arezzo, only 16 km away, where you can visit the historic town centre rich in history and charm with many shops and excellent restaurants where you can sample the delicacies of Tuscan cuisine. Leaving from the Arezzo railway station, on the main Rome-Florence line, you can get to Florence in just an hour or visit other tourist attractions in the area. Just 8 km from the property is the Monte San Savino exit of the A1 motorway, the Autostrada del Sole. Splendid tourist localities to visit include Florence, Siena, Arezzo, Cortona, Chianti, Montepulciano, Montalcino, Rapolano Terme (with its regenerating spas), and the area of Casentino for those who love nature, trekking and biking. NB: Within the property lives the caretaker, a very discreet person who will be available for all your needs. Please Note: when the property is rented in this solution no other guests will be present on site.
