Property Description

Property Summary

Nestled in the heart of the Val di Chiana, La Burraia is an exceptional vacation rental that captures the timeless essence of Tuscany in all its authenticity. Located just a few kilometers from the historic village of Montepulciano, in Italy, this magnificent stone farmhouse sits within a vast agricultural estate where some of the most prized grape varieties are cultivated, giving life to the prestigious Rosso and the celebrated Nobile di Montepulciano. The result of a careful restoration of an original rural stone structure, La Burraia masterfully blends rustic character with refined comfort, making it an ideal retreat for large groups seeking generous indoor and outdoor living spaces. The property comprises a main farmhouse of approximately 475 square meters and an adjoining annex of approximately 70 square meters, together offering an expansive and harmonious setting surrounded by cultivated fields, olive groves, and vineyards. Guests benefit from a fully fenced park of approximately one hectare, providing privacy and tranquility throughout their stay. A dedicated parking area is conveniently accessible via an internal avenue of approximately 400 meters from the entrance gate. High-speed Wi-Fi is available throughout the property, ensuring connectivity for those who need it, while the surrounding landscape and cultural richness of the region invite complete immersion in the Tuscan way of life.

Outdoors

The outdoor spaces of La Burraia are as generous and varied as the landscape that surrounds them. The park extends across approximately one hectare within the fully fenced agricultural estate and is enriched by typical Tuscan olive trees and cypress vegetation, with cultivated fields and vineyards visible in the distance. The estate is separated from neighboring properties by natural plant barriers, ensuring a high degree of privacy. Access to the property is through a gate that opens onto a charming internal avenue of approximately 400 meters, leading to the dedicated parking area. Conveniently positioned near the kitchen exit, a stone barbecue and a shaded dining table beneath a pergola create an inviting space for outdoor meals and social gatherings. Several relaxation areas are distributed throughout the park, complemented by a bowling green that adds a recreational dimension to the outdoor experience. The non-heated swimming pool occupies a private position at the rear of the houses, approximately 20 meters away and reachable via a pleasant short walk. Rectangular in shape, the pool measures 7 x 15 meters with a constant depth of 1.40 meters, and features a PVC-coated tank, a metal access ladder, internal lights, and a chlorine purification system. The surrounding solarium area is well equipped with a pergola, sun loungers, tables, umbrellas, and a cold water shower. 2 service bathrooms and an additional shower are available in an adjoining annex near the pool.
