Property Summary
Nestled in the rolling hills of Tuscany, Bossoncina is a beautifully restored 19th-century stone farmhouse that has been transformed into an elegant villa, offering an exceptional vacation rental experience just under 2 kilometers from the celebrated Renaissance town of Montepulciano, in Italy. The property spans approximately 200 square meters across 2 levels and stands as a testament to the harmonious union of historic craftsmanship and contemporary design, where authentic local materials and fine antique furnishings meet modern, functional details to create an intimate and enveloping atmosphere. Guests are welcomed into a setting that combines the charm of the Tuscan countryside with a full suite of thoughtful amenities, including a generous yard immersed in olive groves, fruit trees, and Mediterranean shrubs, as well as complimentary Wi-Fi connectivity and a dedicated parking area located immediately beyond the entrance gate to the property.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Bossoncina are a true celebration of the Tuscan landscape. An inviting garden with colorful seasonal blooms extends across the surrounding land, which forms part of a working farm where olive trees line the perimeter and a young collection of fruit trees and Mediterranean shrubs dot the expanses of lawn. In the paved area in front of the kitchen's French window, a pergola shelters a large stone table and a barbecue, creating an ideal setting for outdoor dining and leisurely afternoons in the reserved countryside. The large, newly built swimming pool is positioned in a section of the garden that overlooks the breathtaking panorama of the Chiana valley, just 15 meters from the house and enclosed by a fence for safety. The pool measures 6x12 meters, with a depth ranging from 1.10 to 1.50 meters, and features travertine edging, stoneware lining, a travertine bottom, and large corner steps leading into the water.

The pool is non-heated and is open from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday in October.

Property Summary
Nestled in the serene Val di Chiana between Siena and Arezzo, Albachiara is an exceptional vacation rental that places you just minutes from the enchanting hilltop town of Cortona, one of the oldest Etruscan settlements in Tuscany, rising 600 metres above sea level in the heart of Italy. This beautifully restored stone farmhouse, originally a farm shed belonging to the adjacent Leopoldine villa, has been completely renovated with meticulous attention to conservation and the careful salvage of all original materials. The result is a refined and welcoming country house where natural tones echo the colours of the surrounding earth, and simply yet elegantly furnished rooms create a warm, inviting atmosphere. The property sits on approximately 1 hectare of fully fenced grounds, offering guests complete privacy amid fields of sunflowers and sweeping views over Cortona. A lush, well-tended garden frames the outdoor living areas, while a non-heated swimming pool provides a refreshing centrepiece to the estate during the warmer months.

Description
At Poggio del Fabbro you will find yourself in the midst of the peace and beauty of green woods and hills. The old farmhouse is located in a hilly and panoramic position on the border between Tuscany and Umbria, in a secluded and quiet area ideal if you want to spend a relaxing holiday, in full contact with nature and disconnect from the hectic city life. All around the house there are meadows, cultivated fields and cool wooded areas, which will be perfect for your walks during the summer heat.
And if one evening you feel like resurfacing to real life, Cortona, about 20 km away, perched on a high hill, awaits you with its glorious past and its Etruscan origins, and will make you fall in love with its narrow cobbled streets. There are also two restaurants and a small grocery shop within a 10 km distance.
If you choose Poggio del Fabbro, you will choose an old stone farmhouse of peasant origin, dating back to the 1800s, which has recently been renovated and has maintained its architectural and stylistic features intact, respecting tradition. The warmth of the interiors, furnishings and furniture will leave you with an indelible memory of a holiday in Tuscany for years to come.
The owners, a sure point of reference for any need, live in the house next door and will be more than happy to provide you with their vegetable garden with fresh seasonal vegetables.
A few metres from the house, you can bask in the warm summer sun on the solarium of the beautiful swimming pool (size 10x5 m, depth 1.20-1.50 m - open from 01st May to 30th September), completely fenced, which together with table tennis, table football and covered parking are for your exclusive use.
In the beautiful wooden pergola in the garden, in front of the house, you can enjoy the view at sunset, with a good glass of wine, and maybe some local cold cuts and cheese or a nice grill. The pergola will be the ideal place for all your outdoor meals. Poggio del Fabbro
