VILLA PANZANO

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. Located in the heart of Chianti with spectacular views of the surrounding area, this exclusive villa is the perfect location for unforgettable day trips to the most beautiful towns in Tuscany and provides a unique opportunity to admire its 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, around 700 m. It is an extremely pretty, medieval town with all of the necessary services you might need and it is famous for its organic wines and the celebrity, maestro butcher Dario Checchini with his butcher's shop and kitchen. There are plenty of fine restaurants in the town, a top-notch Italian ice-cream gelateria plus a weekly market every Sunday should you feel like trying your hand at some authentic Tuscan cooking.

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 civilization, 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 ended up in another time along its centuries-old walls.

The villa is a few kilometers from San Gimignano, one of the best preserved medieval towns in Italy. From afar, San Gimignano looks like a town from a Renaissance painting: a circle of 13th-century walls enclosing tall, teetering stone towers. Its towers make it instantly recognizable, but the art treasures held within its walls are just as remarkable. Although the town is small, there is enough art, architecture and fine food to keep you busy for more than one day.

The villa is also a few kilometers from Siena. Its ancient red brick buildings, the scallop-shaped main square Piazza del Campo and the Cathedral Square, dominated by the zebra-striped Duomo, make it an absolute must for anyone traveling to Tuscany. Effectively an open-air museum celebrating the Gothic, Siena boasts secular monuments that have retained both their medieval forms and their exceptional art collections, providing plenty to marvel at.

In less than two hours by car you can also reach Pisa, well-known for its Leaning Tower. Moving between its alleys and riversides you will discover architectural jewels such as Santa Maria della Spina, the headquarters of the Scuola Normale Superiore in Piazza dei Cavalieri, the exhibitions of Palazzo Blu and the magnetic charm of Piazza dei Miracoli. Start from the Baptistery and head to the 130-meter Camposanto Monumentale overlooking the square.

Villa Panzano is 47 km from Florence Amerigo Vespucci International Airport, 93 km from Pisa Galileo Galilei International Airport and 290 km from Rome Leonardo da Vinci International Airport. Greve in Chianti is 8 km from the villa, Castellina in Chianti is 12 km, San Casciano in Val di Pesa is 21 km, Florence is 35 km, San Gimignano is 38 km, Siena is 38 km, Volterra is 61 km, Montepulciano is 90 km, Pisa is 98 km. The villa is less than 1,5 km from Panzano, where all the necessary services can be easily found.
