VALDARNO ESTATE - VILLA IL BECCO - VALDARNO
5 Bedrooms
Location and Surrounding Area
Immersed in the peaceful Tuscan countryside, this recently restored farmhouse offers an ideal base to explore the region’s cultural and natural wonders. With breathtaking views over the surrounding landscape, this five-bedroom property is perfect for unforgettable day trips to Tuscany’s most beautiful towns, allowing you to admire its splendid scenery and rich historical and cultural heritage.
In less than an hour by car, you can reach Florence, a treasure trove of art and culture with a dynamic contemporary vibe. Beyond its extraordinary artistic heritage, Florence invites you to stroll along its picturesque riverside avenues at sunset or immerse yourself in the charming bohemian district of Oltrarno and the narrow, historic streets of San Niccolò. Here, you’ll feel transported back in time amidst centuries-old architecture and vibrant local life.
An hour by car brings you to San Gimignano, celebrated for its remarkably preserved mediaeval charm. As you approach, the town’s fourteen towers soar into view like a mediaeval Manhattan, casting a spell of ancient grandeur. Despite the summer crowds, the historic centre’s UNESCO World Heritage status and its enchanting rural backdrop create a truly captivating journey back in time.
The villa is also just a few kilometres from Siena, famed for its ancient red-brick buildings, the iconic scallop-shaped Piazza del Campo, and the stunning Duomo in Cathedral Square. Siena, an open-air museum showcasing Gothic grandeur, enchants visitors with its well-preserved secular monuments and world-class art collections, providing a captivating journey through its rich history and architectural splendour.
Nearby Volterra, one of Tuscany’s most dramatic hilltop towns, is a few kilometres away. Despite its many attractions, Volterra is less crowded than other Tuscan towns, allowing you to explore its ancient sites and mediaeval streets more peacefully. Founded by the Etruscans and surrounded by mediaeval walls, Volterra features a historic centre with fascinating Roman ruins, mediaeval buildings, and alabaster workshops.
