JKM-1040 Tuscan residence with guesthouse, two outbuildings and amazing botanical garden on top of a hill not far from Monte San Savino in Tuscany

The property occupies an entire hill between Marciano della Chiana and Monte San Savino, in the middle of Valdichiana valley. The private entrance alley, almost 700 metres long with pines, cypress and oak trees on both sides, climbs from the gate up to the kind of plateau, where the garden and buildings are located. The villa measures 420 sq.m. on two floors. It is a building made partly in stone and brick. On the contrary to several houses in Tuscany, it has numerous and large windows. This allows not only plenty of day light inside, but also gives the possibility to admire the beautiful garden also in the winter. The ground floor consists of an entrance hall, huge sitting room with double-faced fireplace and dining area, kitchen, bathroom and large pantry/store.

First floor features a large sitting room with fireplace and study area, four comfortable bedrooms and a bathroom.  

The interiors have beamed ceilings, arches in bricks and terracotta tiles.  Most of the windows have arched shape.

A 65 sq.m. house has been constructed nearby. It is presently used as garage but has been already equipped in terms of pipes to become a two-bedroom self-catering apartment.

The space around the buildings was transformed into a plateau in order to facilitate creation and maintenance of the garden. The passion of one of the owners turned this place into a precious botanical garden with several rare plants appropriate for the local climate. It is an English style garden, blooming and pleasant in all seasons of the year. An antique basin in stone is full of red fish and water lilies. The romantic pond surrounded by different aquatic plants has a fantastic collection of colourful Japanese carps.

This splendid garden area measures about 7000 sq.m. It also has several fruit trees and large lawns requiring little maintenance. It is a real paradise for those who love gardening and plants as well as comfortable and luxury interior spaces.

Rest of the land which amounts up to 10 hectares is cultivated by the local farmers. As for the access road, it is a private, almost 700 metres long alley with pine, cypress and oak trees, which leads from the entrance gate up to the buildings.
