Description
Property Summary
Nestled atop a sun-drenched hill in the heart of Tuscany, Monterzi is a beautifully restored farmhouse that offers an extraordinary vacation rental experience in one of Italy's most evocative landscapes. Located within easy reach of the charming medieval borgo of Trequanda and surrounded by the rolling vineyards and olive groves that define the Sienese countryside, this property was born from the careful and respectful renovation of an ancient ruin, once used as stables. The stone turret that formed the original structure has been thoughtfully expanded and refurbished in keeping with the authentic Tuscan architectural tradition, resulting in an interior that is both comfortable and full of character. The estate extends across approximately 2 hectares, offering guests a sense of privacy and immersion in nature that is truly rare. A private yard envelops the property, providing ample space to wander and unwind amid a rich variety of native trees and Mediterranean vegetation. Wireless internet connection is available throughout the property, ensuring guests remain connected during their stay, while private parking is provided on-site for added convenience.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Monterzi are nothing short of spectacular, defined by the extraordinary 360-degree panorama that unfolds from the hilltop on which the house stands. Directly in front of the property, the picturesque village of Montisi comes into view, while turning westward reveals the magical lunar landscape of the Crete Senesi. To the east, the gaze travels across Radicofani and the ever-changing geometry of the Val d'Orcia, all the way to Montalcino beneath the towering silhouette of Mount Amiata. The estate's grounds are laced with pleasant walking paths shaded by a rich variety of native shrubs and tall trees, including maples, holm oaks, chestnuts, old oaks, lindens, and fruit trees such as fig, cherry, pear, and peach. A panoramic portico, furnished with a table and chairs, provides the perfect setting for alfresco dining with sweeping views, while a brickwork barbecue located just a few steps away invites guests to enjoy leisurely outdoor meals in true Tuscan style. Please note that the photographs of the property were taken in spring, so the appearance of flowering plants and garden grass may vary depending on the season of your visit. The non-heated swimming pool is situated approximately 15 metres from the house, on a slightly lower level, and is enclosed by a wooden and net fence with a gate for safety. South-facing and positioned to take full advantage of the panoramic views over the Val d'Orcia, the rectangular pool measures 4 x 8 metres with a constant depth of 1.10 metres. It is lined in PVC and equipped with chlorine purification, with a ladder providing easy access to the water. The surrounding sunbathing area is paved in pink stone, bordered on 2 sides by fragrant lavender bushes, and furnished with sunbeds. A solar-heated outdoor shower completes the pool area. The pool is open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October.
Unit Layout
Monterzi accommodates up to 4 guests across 2 well-appointed bedrooms and 1 bathroom, distributed over 2 floors that are connected both by an internal staircase and an external one. Thanks to the sloping terrain on which the house is built, both floors benefit from direct access to the outdoors. The main entrance is located beneath the portico and is reached by climbing a few steps, leading into a welcoming living room with a dedicated dining area. On this floor, guests will find a double bedroom and a twin bedroom with joinable beds, the latter featuring a French window that opens directly to the outside. The single bathroom on this floor is equipped with a shower. A short flight of stairs descends to the lower floor, where the kitchen and laundry area are located.

In the kitchen, a dishwasher makes meal preparation and clean-up effortless, and the property is further equipped with a washing machine located in the dedicated laundry area on the lower floor. Outdoor cooking enthusiasts will appreciate the brickwork barbecue situated just steps from the panoramic portico, ideal for preparing traditional Tuscan-inspired meals in the open air. For entertainment, a satellite television is available, offering a wide selection of channels to enjoy during relaxed evenings at the property.
