VILLA PANZANO - PANZANO IN CHIANTI
6 Bedrooms
Location and Surrounding Area
Immersed in the calm Tuscan countryside, this magnificent six-bedroom villa is ideally located to explore the region’s cultural highlights and most spectacular natural wonders. Situated in the heart of Chianti with breathtaking views of the surrounding area, this exclusive villa is the perfect location for unforgettable day trips to the most beautiful towns in Tuscany, offering a unique opportunity to admire the splendid landscapes while soaking up the region’s incredibly rich historical and cultural heritage.
The town of Panzano is only a short walk from the property, approximately 700 m. It is an extremely picturesque, medieval town with all the necessary services you might need and is renowned for its organic wines and the celebrity maestro butcher Dario Cecchini, with his butcher's shop and kitchen. There are plenty of fine restaurants in the town, a top-notch Italian gelateria, and a weekly market every Sunday should you feel like trying your hand at some authentic Tuscan cooking.
Greve in Chianti and Castellina in Chianti are two picturesque towns in Tuscany, each offering a mix of history and natural beauty. Greve, the gateway to Chianti, has a charming main square, Piazza Matteotti, with cafés, shops, and wine bars. Surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, it’s perfect for wine lovers. Castellina, with its medieval streets and castle, offers stunning views of the countryside. Both towns are great for exploring local wines and enjoying the scenic Tuscan landscape.
The villa is less than one hour from Florence, a treasure trove of art with an astonishing contemporary vibe. Beyond the extraordinary artistic heritage, a testimony to its centuries of civilisation, the best way to enjoy Florence is to stroll along the riverside avenues at sunset or to get lost among the city’s myriad alleyways of the bohemian Oltrarno or the narrow little streets of San Niccolò, where it feels like you have stepped into another time along its centuries-old walls.
