Vrijstaande woning in Siena

The perfect Chianti retreat | At the edge of a historic Chianti village, a property rises surrounded by a landscape of rare beauty — vineyards and olive groves stretching as far as the eye can see. The unspoilt Sienese countryside is visible from every corner of the residence: from the terrace, the garden, and through the generous floor-to-ceiling windows that bring the outside in. The former barn has been lovingly restored, preserving the original beams, historic stonework and traditional materials, now woven into a contemporary layout that prioritises light and the ease of everyday living. The double-height living area is the finest expression of this vision — a striking space where natural light shifts throughout the day, drawing out the quality of the architecture with quiet confidence. The traditional clerestory windows with perforated brick screen, bathed in sunlight from morning to dusk, cast ever-changing patterns of light across the walls and frame views over the surrounding countryside. Arranged across two levels, as is traditional in the area, the property offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a generous open-plan living area and kitchen. Outside, a pergola draped in climbing plants shelters a terracotta-paved area that opens onto a panoramic terrace overlooking the hills of Chianti. The cotto gradually gives way to a garden enriched by aromatic herbs, wrapping around the home and offering a degree of privacy that is unusual for a shared-estate setting. The communal infinity pool, a short walk from the property, has been thoughtfully positioned to celebrate the landscape and bring nature and comfort into seamless dialogue. The property includes a private garage within the shared car house, with easy access from the residence.
