Property Summary
Nestled among the gently rolling hills of Tuscany, Dimora San Germano is an elegant rural house offering a refined vacation rental experience in the heart of San Miniato, Italy. This recently renovated property masterfully blends traditional Tuscan materials — including terracotta, wood, sandstone, marble, and the celebrated ceramics of nearby Montelupo — with the sophisticated taste of its owner, resulting in one of the most beautiful residences in the area. The villa is set within a beautifully maintained park of 6,000 sq m, completely enclosed to ensure total privacy, and guests benefit from a generous yard where nature, history, and comfort come together seamlessly. A private parking area is conveniently located just past the entrance gate, providing easy access to both floors of the house. Complimentary Wi-Fi is available throughout the property, keeping guests connected during their stay. The stunning multi-level swimming pool, with its cascading water features and panoramic views over the fortress of San Miniato, stands as one of the most captivating highlights of the estate, inviting guests to unwind in an atmosphere of timeless Tuscan beauty.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Dimora San Germano are a true celebration of the Tuscan landscape. The park, spanning 6,000 sq m and fully enclosed, is bordered along the front by carefully maintained hedges that ensure complete privacy, while the elevated position at the back rewards guests with breathtaking views over the borgo of San Miniato and its characteristic tower rising against the sky. The garden on the pool side unfolds as a succession of olive trees, lush lawn, and fragrant Mediterranean herbs, while cypresses and additional olive trees frame the central lawn areas with natural elegance. Near the entrance, an outdoor living area features small sofas and armchairs set among colourful bushes of Mediterranean herbs and flower-filled vases, creating a welcoming and vibrant atmosphere. A gazebo on the pool side, furnished with a table, chairs, and a mobile barbecue, provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining. The porch adjacent to the ex-barn is equipped with a table tennis table for additional recreation. Please note that the property photographs were taken in spring, so the flowering and colours of the garden grass may vary at the time of arrival.
The swimming pool complex is a remarkable feature of the property, set between the olive grove and the lawn approximately 20 m from the house.
