Villa Rinaldi 6

Property Description

Property Summary

Nestled within the verdant embrace of the Montagnola Senese Park, Villa Rinaldi offers an exceptional vacation rental experience in the heart of Tuscany, just a few kilometres from the historic centre of Siena and within the municipality of Monteriggioni, Italy. The property occupies the ground floor of an elegantly renovated building situated along a residential road in the charming borgo of Santa Colomba, a small hamlet dominated by a 14th-century castle-fortress and a historic church adorned with frescoes by Duccio da Buoninsegna. Lovingly restored by its current owners, who reside discreetly on the upper floor for short periods only, the villa combines refined interiors with an extraordinary natural setting surrounded by centuries-old holm oaks, oaks, and chestnut trees. Guests have access to a fully equipped one-hectare private park, a dedicated parking area located just past the entrance gate to the property, and complimentary Wi-Fi throughout the accommodation. A private swimming pool completes the outdoor offering, making Villa Rinaldi an ideal retreat for those seeking both comfort and an immersive connection with the unspoiled Tuscan landscape.

Outdoors

The grounds of Villa Rinaldi are nothing short of extraordinary, extending across a fully fenced one-hectare park that wraps around the rear of the building and is framed along its perimeter by centuries-old oak trees and lush, refreshing woodland vegetation. The garden is a living tapestry of seasonal blooms and wild flora, including junipers, honeysuckles, strawberry trees, ferns, cyclamens, violets, hellebores, strawberries, and wild blackberries, all of which can be discovered simply by strolling around the property. A vegetable garden with seasonal vegetables and aromatic herbs is also available for guests to enjoy. Throughout the park, various seating areas equipped with chairs and tables invite relaxation and convivial gatherings, while a convenient outdoor dining area is positioned directly at the living room exit, creating a seamless flow between interior and exterior living. Please note that the photographs of the property were taken in spring, and therefore the blossoming of flowers and the colour of the garden grass may differ at the time of your arrival.

The non-heated swimming pool is set in the most private area of the property, on a lower terrace approximately 20 metres from the villa, reached via a few steps or along a dedicated path. Rectangular in shape and measuring 4 x 8 metres, with a depth ranging from 1.50 to 1.70 metres, the pool features submerged entry steps, a PVC lining, a stone-paved border, internal spotlights, salt-based water purification, and a waterproof cover for overnight use. The surrounding sunbathing area is furnished with a large umbrella, small tables, sofas, and sunbeds, as well as a cold-water shower. The pool is open from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday in October.

Unit Layout

Villa Rinaldi accommodates up to 6 guests across 3 elegantly appointed bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom, spread across the ground floor of the building. The main entrance, located on the side of the building, opens into a refined hallway that leads to the right into a spacious living room featuring a study corner and direct access to the garden, and to the left into a well-appointed kitchen and dining room arranged in an open-plan layout. The sleeping area comprises 1 double bedroom with divisible beds and an ensuite bathroom with a bathtub, as well as 2 twin bedrooms with joinable beds, each served by an ensuite bathroom with a shower, for a total of 3 bathrooms. The interior is completed by a dedicated laundry room, ensuring all the practical comforts of a well-organised home.

Other Information

Villa Rinaldi is an ideal destination for guests with a passion for eco-sustainable tourism, nature, trekking, and cultural discovery. The surrounding Montagnola area features marked CAI (Club Alpino Italiano) trails and gently rolling hills that are perfectly suited to hikers and those who enjoy leisurely walks through unspoiled countryside. The region is also home to a remarkable concentration of castles, including those of Monteriggioni, Chiocciola, and Celsa, as well as churches and hermitages of rare beauty, many of which can be reached on foot, such as San Leonardo al Lago and Lecceto. These sites bear witness to the many routes that once formed part of the Via Francigena pilgrimage road, which continues to be travelled to this day.
