Property Summary
Nestled on a scenic promontory less than 3 kilometres from the historic city of Arezzo, in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, Villa Ninfeo is an exceptional vacation rental that combines timeless elegance with contemporary comfort. The property takes its evocative name from the beautiful water lilies, known in Italian as ninfee, that adorn the large stone vases lining the pool's edge, creating a fairy-tale atmosphere that welcomes you the moment you turn into the driveway. The complex comprises 2 distinct buildings: a main villa and a nearby annex, both distinguished by an exceptionally high aesthetic standard, featuring period furniture, original artworks, precious carpets, fireplaces, and innovative design elements seamlessly integrated with home automation technology. Surrounding both structures is a magnificent one-hectare park, designed by a renowned landscape architect and home to an extraordinary collection of more than twenty thousand ornamental plants from around the world. The property offers private parking for up to 4 cars at the entrance gates, along with a one-car garage, ensuring effortless arrivals and departures. A reliable wireless internet connection is available throughout the stay, keeping you connected while you enjoy the tranquillity of this remarkable retreat. The fully fenced yard extends across several terraces around the hilltop, offering unforgettable panoramic views of Arezzo and the rolling hills covered in cultivated fields, olive groves, and vineyards stretching to the horizon.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Villa Ninfeo are nothing short of extraordinary, representing a true masterpiece of landscape design spread across multiple terraces and levels. The one-hectare park winds gracefully around both buildings, marked along its perimeter by an oak wood and framed by spectacular expanses of cultivated land. Paved pathways connect all areas of the estate, guiding you through a sparkling symphony of blossoms, vast areas of lawn, and a remarkable collection of tree species gathered from around the world. Please note that the photographs of the property were taken in spring, so the flowering and the colour of the garden grass may differ at the time of your arrival.
At the heart of the outdoor experience is the oval-shaped swimming pool, positioned between the main villa and the annex, approximately 10 metres from the annex. The non-heated pool is open from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday of October and measures 7 by 14 metres, with a depth ranging from 90 cm to 2.50 metres. Entry into the water is via submerged steps, and a diving board is also available. The pool is fully lined with dry-mounted Tuscan stone, with a grey-blue cement bottom that lends a beautifully natural effect within its sandstone-paved surround. On 2 sides, large stone vases filled with water lilies add a romantic and distinctive touch. The pool area is equipped with comfortable sunbeds for sunbathing and is complemented by a romantic gazebo covered in climbing ivy, furnished with sofas and armchairs for those who prefer the shade. A hot and cold-water shower and chlorine purification system complete the pool facilities.
Throughout the park, several carefully arranged relaxation and dining areas invite you to make the most of the outdoor setting. A pretty wooden gazebo furnished with a dining table sits at the exit of the annex, directly in front of the pool. A convenient dining area covered by a large umbrella is positioned near the dining room of the main villa, while a discreet portico at the entrance to the living room overlooks a scenic fountain built with river stones, ideal for reading or simply unwinding.
