Situated atop a hill with panoramic views, this superb home is surrounded by the unspoiled beauty of the rural Tuscan countryside. It combines the charm of a 300-year-old stone farmhouse with the best of Italian modern interior design to create a unique blend of old and new. Its splendid grounds include a long driveway framed by cypress, elm, wild pear, plum and apple trees, as well as a natural pond sheltered by ancient oaks and an infinity pool. Space and comfort define this villa, from the living room with its modern wood-burning fireplace, to the 30ft portico off the kitchen, which provides the perfect setting for an unforgettable meal accented by the gorgeous views of the medieval town of Trevinano across the valley. The bedrooms epitomize the notion of timeless style, with their modern furnishings set against the traditional woodwork and tiled floors that are typical of the region. Just down the road from the house is one of the best known spas in Italy, where there are delightful thermal pools and a wide range of treatments available and other colorful and historic towns are just a short drive away.
