Description

VILLA PINTELLO - SAN CASCIANO

6 Bedrooms

Location and Surrounding Area
Immersed in the peaceful Tuscan countryside, this majestic villa commands a breathtaking view over vast swathes of olive groves, vineyards, and sweet-smelling pine forests. From its idyllic setting in the rolling hills just southwest of Florence, Villa Pintello is ideally located to explore Tuscany’s cultural highlights and spectacular natural and man-made wonders. Everything is within reach: the art cities of Florence and Siena, the Chianti hills with their world-famous vineyards and fortified villages, as well as local markets, butchers’ shops, wineries, and cheese producers.

What makes Villa Pintello uniquely attractive is its proximity to Florence, a UNESCO World Heritage site. It’s just 19 minutes from Porta Romana, the southernmost gate to the city, and one of the few remaining sections of the 13th-century walls. For history enthusiasts, the gates are still hung with the original, massive iron-clad doors dating from 1327. Inside the gates, you’ll find the indescribably beautiful and humbling treasures of the city that led our ancestors from the brutal Middle Ages into the light of the Renaissance.

This is the cool side of the city, the Oltrarno, where Florentines still live and go about their daily business. Vintage stores abound, as do antique shops, art studios, artisanal jewellery shops, hip cafes, and wine bars. Not to mention the best restaurants, both traditional and avant-garde. Sublime Italian gardens such as the Boboli Gardens and the secret Torrigiani private gardens are also within the walls, along with lesser-visited churches and chapels such as the Capella Brancacci and the Basilica di Santo Spirito.

If you prefer to escape the bustle and heat of the city and immerse yourself in the Chianti lifestyle, you’re in the right place. For centuries, nobility and wealthy merchants escaped the heat of Florence by retreating to these hills. Important families associated with Chianti Classico built spectacular villas next to the imposing stone castles constructed by Florentine and Sienese warlords in the Middle Ages. Market towns like Greve in Chianti grew up where produce from farms and livestock was traded. Greve and its close neighbour, Panzano, both about 20 minutes’ drive away, are food and wine lovers' paradises with their world-famous butcher’s shops and wine festivals.

If you wish to travel further back in time to the Etruscan period, a short drive will take you to the famous Tomba dell’Arciere (Tomb of the Archer) from the 7th century BC. This is near the town of San Casciano in Val di Pesa, the largest town in the immediate area, which offers a range of shops, restaurants, and local services. It also has a fantastic farmers' market every Monday morning, which is definitely worth a visit.

At the end of the day, whether filled with culture, wine tasting, or simply relaxing by the pool, you can bring it to a beautiful close on one of the terraces, facing west to watch the spectacular sunset over the landscape that has inspired artists for centuries.

Villa Pintello is 23 km from Florence Amerigo Vespucci International Airport, 74 km from Pisa Galileo Galilei International Airport, and 308 km from Rome Leonardo da Vinci International Airport. San Casciano in Val di Pesa is 8 km from the villa, Florence is 16 km, Barberino Val d’Elsa is 24 km, Greve in Chianti is 26 km, Panzano is 27 km, Castellina in Chianti is 35 km, San Gimignano is 46 km, Siena is 65 km, Volterra is 68 km, Vitignano is 72 km, and Pisa is 78 km.

The Property
Set in beautiful grounds overlooking the rolling Chianti hills, Villa Pintello features spacious interiors and exteriors, making it ideal for families and groups. With its consecrated chapel, it also offers a stunning venue for an intimate wedding or a renewal of vows ceremony. The views from the gardens, various terraces, and pergolas are truly stunning. Built in the 15th century, this villa epitomises the Italian sense of grandeur and elegance, featuring high ceilings, large windows, and graceful lines. This charming property boasts a gorgeous swimming pool, an Italian garden adorned with vases and statues, and a consecrated chapel. Close to Florence, Villa Pintello is tranquil, intimate, and comfortable. With its enchanting setting and spread over three floors, the villa can accommodate eleven guests in six bedrooms (five double bedrooms and one single room).

The gardens are beautiful, featuring a large lawn, flower beds, avenues of mature olive trees, and terracotta pots dotted with moss and overflowing with geraniums. Particularly captivating is the beautiful symmetry between the villa and the chapel at the end of the garden. The walkway is lined with pots, and the pathway is illuminated at night, creating a very atmospheric setting. The villa boasts a generously sized swimming pool (12 x 6 m), which is west-facing and thus perfectly positioned to capture all of the day’s sun. There are plenty of inviting sun loungers by the pool, along with various covered relaxation areas, reading nooks, and al fresco lounge and dining areas. For outdoor entertainment, the villa also features a swing for children, a small covered gym with a treadmill and exercise bike, and a beautifully positioned bocce pit. You can enjoy this ancient Roman game with a glass of Chianti Classico in hand while watching the sun set right in front of you.

Villa Pintello dates from the late Renaissance period, with notable features in the grand entrance room, including a high, beautifully painted ceiling. As you move through the ground floor to the two spacious living rooms, you’ll be struck by how much light floods in from the vast windows that frame the spectacular scenery outside. Leading off from the living area is a modestly sized fully fitted kitchen and a dining room with an open fireplace and a collection of vintage hand-painted ceramics. On the lower ground floor, there is a double bedroom with its own private bathroom with a shower. Also on this level is a bright lounge room complete with a comfortable sofa, a 75-inch TV, and a pool table that can be converted into a tennis table.

The upper floor is accessed via an elegant broad red-carpeted staircase that gracefully ascends from the entrance hall. There are five bedrooms: four double bedrooms and one single room. The single room and one double bedroom share a bathroom with a large bathtub. The other bedrooms each have a private bathroom (located in the corridor, just outside each room) with a shower. All bedrooms are individually decorated with their own unique character and personally chosen antique pieces. All areas of the villa are available to guests except for the wine cellar, located on the lower ground floor. However, it can be visited upon request in the presence of the staff or the owner. Air conditioning is available in all bedrooms except for the single room.
