Description
Property Summary
Nestled in the rolling hills of Chianni, in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, Villa Panorama is an extraordinary vacation rental that seamlessly blends centuries of history with contemporary comfort and ecological sensitivity. Born from the careful restoration of an eighteenth-century farmhouse, this magnificent property has been brought back to life through a meticulous design process that honors the finest traditions of Tuscan architecture while embracing the principles of green building and eco-sustainability. The result is a residence of rare excellence, where open-face stone walls, vaulted ceilings with terracotta tiles and iron girders, and fine natural terracotta floors coexist harmoniously with luxurious, modern furnishings inspired by refined modernity and country chic elegance. Every corner of the house has been enriched with fine decorative details, pastel-toned walls, and simple yet sophisticated furnishings that create a warm and deeply hospitable atmosphere. The property is surrounded by approximately 30 hectares of land, divided between a productive olive grove and a dense wooded area of oaks and holm oaks, offering guests an immersive connection with the Tuscan countryside. The fully fenced park of approximately 3 hectares is equipped with an alarm system and features lush lawns bordered by aromatic bushes, fruit trees, and olive trees. Guests benefit from a high-speed wireless internet connection throughout the property, making it as practical as it is beautiful. Villa Panorama is also ideally positioned to attend Andrea Bocelli's celebrated summer concerts at the nearby "TEATRO DEL SILENZIO," of which the renowned tenor Andrea Bocelli serves as honorary President.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Villa Panorama are as thoughtfully designed as the interior, offering a rich variety of environments for relaxation, dining, and recreation. Directly adjacent to the kitchen, a small vegetable garden cultivates a wide range of fresh herbs, ideal for enhancing traditional Tuscan recipes alongside the excellent extra virgin olive oil produced by the estate's own olive trees. The patio beside the vegetable garden provides a charming sitting area, while the main outdoor dining space, positioned in front of the kitchen, is sheltered beneath an elegant brickwork gazebo complete with a pizza oven and a brick barbecue, creating the perfect setting for convivial outdoor meals. Two additional sitting areas, furnished with sofas and armchairs, have been arranged in front of the French windows of the living area, offering peaceful spaces for outdoor relaxation and contemplation. Paved areas alternate with stretches of lawn throughout the park, all bordered by colourful aromatic bushes, creating a landscape of great natural beauty.
The crown jewel of the outdoor spaces is the stunning infinity pool, positioned on the furthest terrace of the property to ensure complete privacy, full sun throughout the day, and breathtaking views over the wooded countryside with Volterra as a backdrop. The non-heated pool measures 7 x 14 metres with a constant depth of 1.5 metres and is lined with iridescent green-brown mosaics complemented by a border of nut-coloured travertine, giving the water a naturally harmonious green tone. Access to the water is provided via a ladder, and the pool is equipped with both internal and external lighting and operates on a modern cleaning system using minimal doses of chlorine. The pool is open from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday in October. Located approximately 80 metres from the main house, it is reached via a driveway paved with faux antique stone followed by a flight of steps, which is preceded by a safety gate for children. The surrounding solarium area is paved in stone and bordered by fragrant cushions of lavender and rosemary, and is furnished with elegant sunbeds. A hot and cold water shower and a minibar complete this exceptional outdoor retreat.
