Villa Salivolpe - on top of a Chianti hill - Private swimming pool

The villa spreads into 3 independent non- communicating apartments, each one with an independent entrance. The apartments, although divided, are exclusively reserved for the same group of friends/family: NO-SHARING with other guests.
The villa adjoins a different property, from which it is completely separated by hedges or walls to ensure the privacy of our guests.

On arrival at Villa Salivolpe, one instantly breathes the fresh green air of the Tuscan countryside and is overwhelmed by the stunning 360° views offered by the location.
Being just 20 miles from the city of Florence and 30 miles from Siena, the villa is ideally situated to experience Tuscany at its very best!
The historic district of Florence starts approximately 15 miles away, about a 20-minute drive by car. Florence Airport is about 20 miles away. You may reach the nearest village on foot but a car is strongly recommended for moving around at the discovery of the many little villages, of local producers or of the main art cities.

From the top of the hill, where the house nests, the views are stunning, and watching the sunrise or the sunset over the rolling hills is an amazing experience. Children can enjoy running freely in the fields, and playing outside where there is plenty of space to roam.
Surrounded by olive groves, the beautifully kept natural private lawn/garden, as well as the panoramic paved and covered terrace for enjoying your dinners al fresco, or simply reading a book, offer a peaceful and quiet atmosphere at all hours.

Just a few steps ahead you enter the villa which is split into three fully-serviced apartments, (called Nespolo - Melograno - Salice) spread over three floors, each one with independent entrance, providing maximum privacy and comfort for large groups, when needed, but also offering common spaces where you can live, eat or simply rest altogether.
The house is adjacent to another property, but hedges and walls along the border eliminate any contact with the neighbors.

Entering the main door of the largest apartment (Nespolo), one is welcomed into an open space with a fully-equipped cozy kitchen corner; a wide dining area with a beautiful long table seating up to 16 people; and a living area with couches, a coffee table, and television.

All the apartments have a fully equipped kitchen corner and a living area.

8 bedrooms are double:
4 king-size bedrooms, yet beds can be separated
2 potential king-size bedrooms, but with single sheets
2 twin bedrooms
A 9th small twin bedroom is available(apt.Nespolo), but it needs to share a bathroom with the next room.

All rooms have mosquito nets, shutters, and stunning views!

The villa borders with a neighbour villa but it is totally fenced with a thick edge to guarantee privacy.

Open from May to September (dates to be defined each year depending on the weather), the private swimming pool (5x10 meters) with salty water is also in a panoramic position. One can walk around the olive groves, or enjoy sunbathing on our outdoor furniture (parasols and sun-beds)
It is the ideal place to relax and appreciate the beautiful, old, olive fields surrounding the house.

There is an infinite variety and availability of local food products that you can buy directly from the producers in the area. Simply turn down any road in the countryside and keep an eye out for the small signs put up to attract customer interest.

Less than one hour away from all the “must-see” art cities of Florence, Siena, and Lucca, the area offers many gems to visit. Just take the back roads to discover them and you will be left with memories as lasting and intense as those to be found in the mandatory sites.
Don't expect many tourist sights around the corner, just walk and wander, go to the nearby vineyard for a wine-tasting, or visit the sheep farm nearby where excellent cheese is made from the local milk

Apart from once belonging to the Strozzi family, little is known of this property. Perhaps a small cloister dating back to the XII century, while other portions were added later. We bought it in 1998 and after restructuring and renovating it, we have always treated it as our dream home for weekends and holidays, as we live and work in Milan.
The house is full of charm and is very near to all amenities, as well as many good restaurants, and, of course, shops near San Casciano!!
We have a couple of bicycles in our storeroom; get on them and explore the area!

There is also a wood oven where you could bake bread, cook pizzas, or simply cook anything you like. Everything will have a better taste cooked in there. An area with an old stone table, just outside the Nespolo apartment, looking over the swimming pool, allows freedom without worrying about dirt in the house.

Besides many other activities, one can play tennis in Ponterotto, where there is also a beautiful walk along the river and a Trattoria to stop by for a snack or lunch; or go horseback riding in Santa Cristina; or book a tour in a hot air balloon in Montagnana.
Banks, post offices, pharmacies, and a hospital are all less than 15 min drive away, either in San Casciano, Tavarnelle or Montespertoli.

The absolute quietness, the land, and the light of this place will make your stay a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We really hope your holiday will meet, and possibly exceed your expectations.
