Property Summary
Nestled along a quiet residential avenue just 800 m from the lively village of Castiglion Fibocchi, in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, Ca Maggiore is an exceptional vacation rental born from the careful renovation and enhancement of an authentic 17th-century Leopoldina villa. The property has preserved its original architectural character, including the distinctive squared dovecote tower and the portico surmounted by a traditional loggia on the first floor. Throughout its beautifully spacious interiors, classical structural elements recovered from the ancient building coexist harmoniously with elegant and functional furnishings, handcrafted accessories, and a splendid, fully equipped modern kitchen. The villa and its annex are set within a fully fenced park of ten thousand square meters, offering guests a serene and private retreat with wonderful views over the surrounding hilly landscapes and vineyards. The property benefits from Wi-Fi internet connectivity, a dedicated parking area conveniently accessible just beyond the entrance gate, and a generous yard that includes a vast olive grove and a richly planted garden, making Ca Maggiore a truly immersive and refined Tuscan escape.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Ca Maggiore are as impressive as the interiors, offering a variety of settings for relaxation and al fresco living. The expansive park, entirely fenced for privacy and security, features a vast olive grove ideal for leisurely walks, as well as a lush garden planted with a flat lawn and bordered by bushes of red and aromatic roses. In the immediate vicinity of the two residential units and directly in front of the pool area, a paved and shaded surface provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining. The non-heated swimming pool is a true highlight of the property, framed by scenic olive trees and vines and enjoying an open view over the hilly landscape. Reached by climbing five steps and crossing the surrounding lawn, the pool has a rectangular shape measuring 4.5 x 11 m, with a depth that gradually increases from 1.20 m to 1.80 m. The tank is PVC-lined, sanitized with chlorine, and equipped with internal lights, as well as steps running along one of the two short sides. Along the stone-paved edge, a dedicated sunbathing area is furnished with sun beds and umbrellas. A basement accessible via a flight of stairs houses a bathroom with shower and a changing room for the convenience of pool users. The pool is open from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday in October. Guests are kindly reminded that photographic documentation of the property is typically taken in spring, and therefore the colors and blooms of the gardens, lawns, and park may appear different upon arrival.

Description
Property Summary
Nestled in the serene Tuscan countryside of Cetona, Italy, Podere Gragnano is a captivating stone villa that stands as a testament to the timeless beauty of 19th-century farmhouse architecture. The result of a meticulous renovation completed in 2012, this exceptional vacation rental seamlessly blends original structural elements — including salvaged terracotta flooring and oak parquet — with modern comforts, all while preserving the historic character of the former farmhouse. The property is composed of 2 separate buildings: a main villa and a charming annex constructed in the style of Tuscan tradition, together set within an expansive 80-hectare farm estate. The surrounding landscape is dominated by olive trees, vineyards, and unspoiled nature, with sweeping views of the countryside and the majestic Mount Cetona on the horizon. Guests benefit from high-speed Internet WiFi throughout the property, a dedicated parking area with 4 covered spaces accessible via an automatic wooden and iron gate, and a generous private yard spanning 1.5 hectares of lush parkland. Whether you are seeking a peaceful retreat or a base for exploring the cultural riches of Tuscany and beyond, Podere Gragnano offers an unparalleled setting just 5 minutes from the town of Cetona.
Outdoors
The 1.5-hectare park of Podere Gragnano is a beautifully landscaped environment of plush lawns, low hedges, a small olive grove, and the estate's own vineyard, creating a sense of natural abundance and tranquility. Throughout the garden, you will discover a rich variety of plantings including cotoneaster, climbing roses, broom, hydrangeas, irises, fig, peach and apricot trees, and towering oaks, as well as a collection of aromatic herbs. A charming circular iron gazebo invites you to sit and absorb the peaceful atmosphere, while the pergola adjacent to the dining room — adorned with potted oleanders — is fully equipped for outdoor meals and features a wood-burning oven for al fresco cooking. Not far from the pool, tucked behind a cluster of olive trees, a delightful small brick playhouse designed for children contains 2 rooms with games and tables. Two rows of cypress trees line the short gravel driveway leading from the entrance gate to the parking area, lending the approach a distinctly Tuscan elegance. Adjacent to the parking area, a dedicated laundry room with a sink and a bathroom with toilet and shower provides additional practical convenience for guests.
The non-heated swimming pool is located in a quiet corner of the garden behind the house, approximately 40 metres away, and can be reached across a stretch of lawn or via a short flight of steps. The rectangular pool features 1 infinity side, a stone border, Roman steps, and internal lighting, measuring 6 x 12 metres with a depth ranging from 1 metre to 2.20 metres. The purification system combines both chlorine and oxygen treatment, and the interior is finished with a specialist swimming pool plaster. A generous 1,000 square metre grassy sunbathing area surrounds the pool, furnished with sunbeds, deckchairs, and a large umbrella. Just 10 metres from the pool, a brick building houses a small kitchen and a changing room with shower and toilet.

Property Summary
Nestled in the enchanting borderland between Tuscany and Umbria, Torre di Paciano is a historic country residence of extraordinary character, rising at 492 metres above sea level in the quiet surroundings of Paciano, Italy. This remarkable vacation rental takes its name from the ancient watchtower that once stood as a strategic sentinel along the historic route connecting Perugia to Chiusi, and which today forms an integral part of a property steeped in over a thousand years of documented history. The main body of the residence is joined to an 18th-century building that serves as the central nucleus of the house, furnished throughout with a curated collection of antique furniture and impressive chandeliers that grace the high ceilings and spacious living areas. A charming consecrated chapel, suitable for wedding ceremonies, completes this extraordinary architectural ensemble. The property extends across approximately 3 hectares of land, encompassing accessible woodland and a beautifully maintained park that ensures complete privacy and tranquillity. Ample private parking is available on the estate, and Wi-Fi internet connectivity is provided for guests throughout their stay.

Throughout the garden, which also features an orchard, a vegetable garden, and a long pergola shaded by climbing vines, outdoor seating areas have been thoughtfully arranged in the coolest and most secluded corners, inviting guests to simply sit and enjoy the surroundings. A shaded alfresco dining area is set up within the garden, perfect for sampling local dishes in the open air, while a large barbecue and antique stone seating areas shaded by old oak trees provide additional spaces for outdoor gatherings.

Description
If you decide to spend your holiday at Villa Leopoldina, you can stay in a historic building, a splendid example of a typical Tuscan house designed in the 18th century by the architects of Grand Duke Leopold of Lorraine, with the characteristic four overlapping arches on the façade. It will be a plunge into the past, when families were very numerous and these huge homes housed several generations under the same roof.
In front of the villa you will find the private garden and on the right-hand side the beautiful swimming pool (size 12x5 m, depth 1.40 m, completely enclosed - open from 01st May to 30th September). From here, every day, you can enjoy a splendid panoramic view over the city of Arezzo and its valleys, a view that becomes even more suggestive at night with the thousands of tiny lights that seem to chase each other. You will reach the centre of Arezzo in less than 10 minutes by car and here you will find all the necessary amenities and services, as well as museums, magnificent churches, cathedrals and monuments to visit.
One of the villa's bonuses is certainly its location. It is located within the Pomaio winery, a renowned winery that produces its excellent wines following the rules of eco-sustainability. Pomaio is listed as one of the 13 most beautiful Design Cellars in the Region of Tuscany for the Toscana Wine Architecture project, and this Green philosophy was also followed for the renovation of the villa. In fact, thanks to the materials used, the villa has a high energy-saving rating, with positive effects both for the environment and for those who stay there in all seasons.
Therefore, in addition to living in the midst of an almost enchanted place, amidst splendid rows of vines that slope down towards the silhouette of the city, you will be able to taste the excellent wines in the wine cellar when you feel like taking a little walk and reaching it.
Villa Leopoldina is on two levels connected by a covered outdoor staircase. You will have two fully equipped kitchens, a washing machine and a dryer on each floor, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and satellite TV. Villa Leopoldina is your perfect location for a holiday with all the comforts on an authentic 100-year-old residence.
On arrival day you will have the opportunity to enjoy a dinner offered by the owners (for stays of a minimum of 7 nights) and a welcome basket for breakfast the following day. Thanks to a wooden bridge at the back of the villa, the first floor is also accessible to persons with reduced mobility. Villa Leopoldina
