Description
Property Summary
Nestled in the heart of Tuscany, La Casa di Elsa is a beautifully restored vacation rental set in the medieval hilltop village of Santa Fiora, Italy. Dating back to the early 20th century, this charming property was originally a humble rural house, with animal stalls on the ground floor and peasants' quarters above. Following a skilful renovation completed in 2013, the house has been transformed into a refined and comfortable home that seamlessly blends its rich historical character with modern comforts. The original stone walls, exposed on the exterior and visible beneath the plaster in certain interior spaces, speak to the property's authentic past, while carefully restored pieces of furniture, including 2 old madie, traditional kitchen cupboards once used for kneading and storing bread, now serve as elegant and functional storage units. The lush garden, panoramic swimming pool, and the characteristic medieval town centre of Santa Fiora towering above complete a setting of rare beauty. Surrounded by green woods and set within a 4-hectare estate, the property offers a generous yard that provides both privacy and a deep connection with the natural landscape. Guests benefit from Internet WiFi throughout the house, ensuring connectivity during their stay, and a dedicated gravel parking area is conveniently located near the main entrance, making arrivals and departures effortless.

The outdoor spaces of La Casa di Elsa are among its most captivating features, arranged across 3 large terraces that descend gracefully through the garden. Lawns enlivened by colourful flower pots, mature trees typical of the Tuscan landscape, including chestnuts, oaks, cypresses, walnut, hazelnut, cherry, and apple trees, create a rich and varied natural setting full of interesting corners to discover. An outdoor seating area furnished with sofas and armchairs invites relaxation in the open air, while a panoramic terrace equipped with a brickwork barbecue offers the perfect spot for preparing and enjoying grilled meals in the company of family or friends. The woods and olive grove that border the garden form part of the wider 4-hectare estate, lending the property an exceptional sense of seclusion and tranquillity. From the main entrance, 2 charming paths wind through the woods alongside little streams, leading guests to the village centre in just a few minutes on foot. A few large steps cross the lawn along the 20 metres separating the house from the panoramic swimming pool, which is set on the lowest terrace of the garden and clearly visible from the rooms and patio. The non-heated pool measures 5 x 11 m with a constant depth of 1.40 m, is edged in stoneware tiles, lined in PVC, and features salt purification. Roman steps lead into the water, and the pool is equipped with both internal and external lighting. The surrounding solarium area extends over a level surface that is partly paved and mostly lawn, furnished with sunbeds and umbrellas, and served by a cold-water shower. The many trees throughout the garden create numerous areas of natural shade, particularly welcome during the warmest days of summer. Please note that photographs of the property were taken in spring, meaning that the appearance of flowering plants and the colour of the garden grass may differ at the time of your arrival.
Unit Layout
La Casa di Elsa is configured across 2 floors which, thanks to the sloping terrain, each benefit from direct access to the outside, welcoming up to a maximum of 6 guests across 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.

Distances and Attractions
Santa Fiora, considered one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, is just a short walk from La Casa di Elsa via the charming wooded paths that begin near the property's main entrance. The village is steeped in history, built around the remains of the ancient Aldobrandesque fortifications, of which the Clock Tower is adorned with ceramics by the Della Robbia family, with battlements dating back to the 19th century. Nearby, the Palazzo Sforza stands over the remains of the walls of the old castle, while the Church of Saints Flora and Lucilla houses the celebrated terracotta altarpieces of the Della Robbia Florentine workshop. The Peschiera, a tranquil mirror of clear water dedicated to trout breeding, forms a small and enchanting park immersed in silence, beside which stands the Church of the Madonna delle Nevi, built above the sources of the river Fiora, visible through a glass floor. Exploring the village further along Via Carolina and through its various streets, you pass through the historic Jewish ghetto, whose appearance remains remarkably similar to what it would have been in the mid-16th century, culminating in the Piazza del Ghetto, the only square in Santa Fiora accessible from a single entrance. The Mercury Mine Museum is also open to visitors within the village. Beyond Santa Fiora, the wider region of Tuscany offers an extraordinary wealth of cultural and natural attractions. Etruscan towns rich in history, such as Montepulciano, Montalcino, and San Casciano di Bagni, are within easy reach, as are the great art cities of Tuscany.

Distances and Attractions
Le Macine is ideally positioned between 2 of Tuscany's most celebrated landscapes: the Val d'Orcia, renowned for its iconic crete senesi, or Siennese clays, and home to culturally significant towns such as Pienza and Montalcino, and the Maremma, a vast and unspoilt region extending all the way to the Tyrrhenian Sea. The town of Castel del Piano is just a few kilometres from the property and is a member of the Associations of Wine and Oil Towns, a network of 11 municipalities in the province of Grosseto united by a shared commitment to quality viticulture and gastronomy. The network brings together hotels, farms, restaurants, wine bars, and quality wine cellars, offering guests an exceptional range of local experiences. Castel del Piano is also home to one of the region's most beloved annual events, the Palio of the Four Districts, which celebrates the devotion to the Madonna delle Grazie, a precious gold-background artwork attributed to the 14th-century Sienese painter Sano di Pietro. The Palio is held every year on September 8 and is preceded by a grand allegorical parade representing events that took place between 1330 and 1571, rooted in a legend deeply embedded in local tradition.
