Bibbiano Villas with Pool
Description
Property Summary
Nestled on a hill 350 metres above sea level in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, Villa Amandula is an exceptional vacation rental that seamlessly blends contemporary design with the rich heritage of the surrounding landscape. The name Amandula derives from the ancient local jargon "màndula", meaning almond, a reference to the precious fruit that once dominated this territory and formed a cornerstone of the traditional peasant diet. Built in 2019 according to zero-impact construction principles, the villa celebrates local craftsmanship through the use of handmade terracotta, chestnut beams, and oak parquet, all set within modern, linear, and entirely white interiors where deliberately oversized windows allow natural light to flood every room, transforming it into a living element of the décor. Located within a working farm dedicated to the production of extra virgin olive oil, Amandula enjoys a private and tranquil position overlooking a breathtaking rural landscape of olive groves, vineyards, and dense woodland, with the silhouette of Monte Amiata, an ancient extinct volcano, defining the horizon between the provinces of Grosseto and Siena. The property offers complimentary Wi-Fi connectivity throughout, a generous private yard extending across 3,000 square metres of landscaped garden, a stunning outdoor swimming pool, and a dedicated uncovered parking area with space for 3 cars, all contributing to an experience of refined comfort and absolute serenity in one of Italy's most evocative natural settings.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Villa Amandula are as thoughtfully designed as the interiors, offering a seamless connection between the built environment and the surrounding Tuscan countryside. The property sits within a sloping 2-hectare park planted with olive trees, oaks, almond trees, and wooded areas, enclosed by large-mesh pasture netting intended primarily to ensure privacy and limit access by unauthorised individuals. The 3,000 square metres of garden immediately surrounding the villa are laid to lawn and dotted with olive trees, lavender, and rosemary, creating a fragrant and visually harmonious setting throughout the seasons. A pergola at the entrance provides a shaded and elegantly equipped outdoor dining area, while a brick barbecue with a convenient integrated sink offers the perfect setting for al fresco cooking. A panoramic, north-facing portico furnished with armchairs and a sofa invites relaxation at any hour of the day, framing views across the valley towards Monte Amiata. The uncovered parking area, accommodating up to 3 vehicles, is located at the end of a gravel driveway, just 5 metres from the main entrance door beneath the pergola. The rectangular swimming pool, non-heated and fenced for safety, occupies a lower terrace approximately 30 metres from the villa and is accessible from the porch and the parking area by crossing the garden and descending stone slabs. Measuring 12 x 5 metres with a constant depth of 1.40 metres, the pool is finished in sand-coloured PVC with a porous terracotta border and is equipped with an angular Roman staircase, underwater illumination, and a solar shower. The surrounding sunbathing area, paved in terracotta and framed by a border of lawn and olive trees, is furnished with sunbeds, umbrellas, and tables. The pool is sanitised with chlorine and remains open from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday in October, offering an unobstructed view of the Amiata profiles and the suggestive sunsets that unfold across the horizon.
Unit Layout
Villa Amandula is distributed across 2 levels connected by an internal staircase crafted in terracotta and masonry, and comfortably accommodates up to 6 guests across 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. On the ground floor, the entrance opens from the pergola into a large and luminous open-plan living space that brings together the living area, furnished with a smart TV and overlooking both the swimming pool and the Castello di Velona, the dining area, and a contemporary linear kitchen with direct access to the porch. The ground floor also features a double bedroom with a private exit to the garden and an adjacent bathroom with shower, both of which are fully certified to accommodate guests with disabilities. The first floor, reached via the internal staircase from the living room, houses 2 further double bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom with shower and an exclusive panoramic private terrace. One of these terraces overlooks the swimming pool, the olive grove, and the Val d'Orcia, while the other offers views over the charming village of Seggiano. One of the first-floor bedrooms features a wooden mezzanine level used as a dedicated relaxation area, adding an additional dimension of comfort and character to the accommodation.

Air conditioning is available in all 3 bedrooms, providing a welcome respite during the warmer months of the Tuscan summer.

You will find the house in a landscape covered mostly by olive trees, interrupted here and there by small vineyards and lush oak woods. Ancient farmhouses, always in privileged positions, emerge from the vegetation, completing a natural landscape of rare beauty. A delight for your eyes, an enchanting place for your holidays.
You will find the house on the edge of a large olive grove of about 3 hectares, tended like a meadow that, from the top of the hill, with a harmonious succession of natural terraces, slowly slopes down towards a wooded gully.
A few steps from the house and immersed among the olive trees is the completely fenced swimming pool for your exclusive use (size 5x10 m - depth 1.10-1.50 m - open from 01st May to 30th September), a green oasis for your summer days. In front of the house you will have a large fenced-in courtyard equipped with a table and chairs on the nice porch, where you can enjoy grills and good local wine. Deck chairs, sun loungers, table tennis table, barbecue, 2 bicycles and shaded parking space are also available. Your pets are welcome at Podere Capanne.

Description
Property Summary
Nestled in the rolling hills of Tuscany, Il Molinaccio is an extraordinary vacation rental that invites you to experience the timeless beauty of the Italian countryside near the Renaissance town of Montepulciano, Italy. This remarkable property is the result of a meticulous and passionate restoration of an ancient watermill dating from the sixteenth century, already documented on the old maps of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany. The original architecture has been lovingly preserved, with terracotta floors, exposed beams, and stone façades seamlessly blended with modern comforts and tasteful furnishings that draw from the rich rural tradition of Tuscany. The interior combines salvaged pieces of antique furniture with contemporary accessories, achieving a harmonious balance between tradition and functionality. Designed with a deep respect for the environment, the restoration was carried out according to sustainable principles, incorporating innovative systems that guarantee complete energy efficiency, including a photovoltaic system that offers free recharging for electric vehicles. The property is surrounded by a generous yard that includes a colorful garden bordered by century-old oak trees, a fruit grove, and a 3.5-hectare vineyard. Wireless Internet connection is available throughout the property, keeping you connected while you enjoy the absolute tranquility of this unique setting. 2 covered parking spaces are provided on-site for your convenience, ensuring a comfortable and practical stay from the moment of your arrival.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Il Molinaccio are as captivating as the interiors, offering a seamless extension of the property's natural elegance. The property is immersed in a one-hectare park consisting primarily of woodland, while the house itself is surrounded by approximately 6,000 square metres of well-maintained garden lawn framed by old oak trees that provide generous shade and a natural coolness on warm summer days. Rose bushes and geraniums add vibrant splashes of color to this oasis of green and tranquility. A beautiful stone portico, furnished with a table and benches, provides an ideal setting for pleasant outdoor meals in the open air. Just outside the kitchen, a large paved area has been equipped as an additional dining space, perfect for alfresco gatherings. A large barbecue is available for your use, inviting you to prepare flavorful grills accompanied by a glass of the estate's own Nobile di Montepulciano. The small forest is crossed by the river Salcheto, along which the owners Marco and Alessandro have created a walking footpath with natural bridges, ideal for leisurely strolls or moments of relaxation on handmade wooden benches while enjoying the surrounding natural landscape. Along the river, 3D targets representing local animals have been positioned, transforming the path into a fully fledged Field Archery Range where both professionals and amateurs may practice or learn this ancient sport with the assistance of a skilled trainer. A small outbuilding serves as a laundry facility. The property's cats wander freely throughout the park, adding a charming and authentic rural atmosphere to your stay. Please be aware that photographs of the property were taken in spring, and therefore the blossoming of flowers and the color of the garden grass may differ at the time of your arrival.
Positioned in front of the villa, set among the walls of the old trench where water was once collected and channeled to the watermill, the scenic infinity swimming pool is a true highlight of the estate. Open from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday in October, the pool is non-heated and measures 5 x 18 metres, with a depth varying from 1.20 metres to 1.60 metres. Rather than conventional chlorine treatment, the pool uses a saltwater disinfection system, which is considerably healthier, free from added chemicals, and offers notable benefits including reduced eye irritation and improved tanning. The water has a light and pleasant salty taste. The rectangular pool is equipped with Roman steps for easy water access, underwater lighting, and a cold-water shower. The surrounding solarium area is paved with travertine and furnished with sunbeds, deckchairs, umbrellas, and small tables. Not far from the pool's edge, beneath an ancient oak tree, a dedicated relaxation area has been arranged with a comfortable lounge suite, perfect for unwinding in the shade after a swim.
