Description
Property Summary
Nestled in the rolling hills of Tuscany, Il Molinaccio is an extraordinary vacation rental that invites you to experience the timeless beauty of the Italian countryside near the Renaissance town of Montepulciano, Italy. This remarkable property is the result of a meticulous and passionate restoration of an ancient watermill dating from the sixteenth century, already documented on the old maps of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany. The original architecture has been lovingly preserved, with terracotta floors, exposed beams, and stone façades seamlessly blended with modern comforts and tasteful furnishings that draw from the rich rural tradition of Tuscany. The interior combines salvaged pieces of antique furniture with contemporary accessories, achieving a harmonious balance between tradition and functionality. Designed with a deep respect for the environment, the restoration was carried out according to sustainable principles, incorporating innovative systems that guarantee complete energy efficiency, including a photovoltaic system that offers free recharging for electric vehicles. The property is surrounded by a generous yard that includes a colorful garden bordered by century-old oak trees, a fruit grove, and a 3.5-hectare vineyard. Wireless Internet connection is available throughout the property, keeping you connected while you enjoy the absolute tranquility of this unique setting. 2 covered parking spaces are provided on-site for your convenience, ensuring a comfortable and practical stay from the moment of your arrival.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Il Molinaccio are as captivating as the interiors, offering a seamless extension of the property's natural elegance. The property is immersed in a one-hectare park consisting primarily of woodland, while the house itself is surrounded by approximately 6,000 square metres of well-maintained garden lawn framed by old oak trees that provide generous shade and a natural coolness on warm summer days. Rose bushes and geraniums add vibrant splashes of color to this oasis of green and tranquility. A beautiful stone portico, furnished with a table and benches, provides an ideal setting for pleasant outdoor meals in the open air. Just outside the kitchen, a large paved area has been equipped as an additional dining space, perfect for alfresco gatherings. A large barbecue is available for your use, inviting you to prepare flavorful grills accompanied by a glass of the estate's own Nobile di Montepulciano. The small forest is crossed by the river Salcheto, along which the owners Marco and Alessandro have created a walking footpath with natural bridges, ideal for leisurely strolls or moments of relaxation on handmade wooden benches while enjoying the surrounding natural landscape. Along the river, 3D targets representing local animals have been positioned, transforming the path into a fully fledged Field Archery Range where both professionals and amateurs may practice or learn this ancient sport with the assistance of a skilled trainer. A small outbuilding serves as a laundry facility. The property's cats wander freely throughout the park, adding a charming and authentic rural atmosphere to your stay. Please be aware that photographs of the property were taken in spring, and therefore the blossoming of flowers and the color of the garden grass may differ at the time of your arrival.
Positioned in front of the villa, set among the walls of the old trench where water was once collected and channeled to the watermill, the scenic infinity swimming pool is a true highlight of the estate. Open from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday in October, the pool is non-heated and measures 5 x 18 metres, with a depth varying from 1.20 metres to 1.60 metres. Rather than conventional chlorine treatment, the pool uses a saltwater disinfection system, which is considerably healthier, free from added chemicals, and offers notable benefits including reduced eye irritation and improved tanning. The water has a light and pleasant salty taste. The rectangular pool is equipped with Roman steps for easy water access, underwater lighting, and a cold-water shower. The surrounding solarium area is paved with travertine and furnished with sunbeds, deckchairs, umbrellas, and small tables. Not far from the pool's edge, beneath an ancient oak tree, a dedicated relaxation area has been arranged with a comfortable lounge suite, perfect for unwinding in the shade after a swim.

Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Villa Ginestraio are nothing short of extraordinary, offering a rich variety of environments designed for leisure, dining, and contemplation. Approximately 2,000 square metres of immaculately maintained lawn surround the villa, framed by holm oaks, pines, and ancient larches that cast generous shade during the warm summer months. The grounds are further adorned with shrubs of medicinal plants, roses, and geraniums that lend vibrant colour to this peaceful green oasis. A beautiful portico, accessed directly from the kitchen through French windows, is furnished with a table and chairs and serves as an ideal setting for leisurely breakfasts, alfresco lunches, and candlelit dinners. A large stone barbecue is available for guests who wish to prepare grilled specialities accompanied by a fine glass of Tuscan red wine. Beyond the fenced lawn, the remaining 5,000 square metres of parkland adapt naturally to the hilly terrain, merging into a vast wooded estate where olive trees, fruit trees, pines, willows, and larches alternate in a verdant landscape occasionally visited by fallow deer, roe deer, wild boar, and squirrels. An external stone staircase leads up to the old watchtower, where a small porticoed terrace offers a charming and intimate spot to enjoy a glass of wine while taking in the views. Please note that the garden photographs were taken in spring, and the appearance of the flowers and lawn may vary depending on the season of your arrival. The non-heated swimming pool is situated in a dedicated area of the garden approximately 50 metres from the main house, reached along a tuff-paved path and overlooking an open, panoramic landscape. Measuring 9 by 17 metres with a varying depth of 1 to 3 metres, the pool is lined in sky-blue tiles with a terracotta border and features 5 Roman steps in terracotta as well as a ladder for water access. A circular hydromassage area with terracotta seating adds an element of indulgence to the pool experience. The surrounding sunbathing area is paved in tuff and equipped with comfortable sunbeds, while a cold and hot-water shower and a wooden gazebo furnished with a table and armchairs complete this luxurious outdoor retreat. The pool benefits from chlorine purification and both internal and external lighting, allowing it to be enjoyed after sunset.
