Property Summary
Nestled on a gentle hill on the border between Tuscany and Umbria, Casale Bella Vita is a splendid and classy stone-and-brick residence that offers an exceptional vacation rental experience in the heart of the Italian countryside. Situated in the small hamlet of Moiano, this beautifully restored property lies halfway between Città della Pieve and Chiusi, immersing guests in a serene rural landscape far removed from the rhythms of everyday life. The result of a meticulous restoration completed in 2021, the house showcases a remarkable attention to interior detail, where a skilful selection of colours, furnishing accessories, and natural tones come together to create what can only be described as a "harmonious whole."

In front of the house, accessed via 3 stone steps, a generously sized shaded pergola with a wooden-beamed canopy provides an elegant alfresco dining area furnished with tables and chairs, positioned adjacent to the hot tub for a seamless outdoor experience. A second outdoor relaxation area, located just a few metres from the swimming pool, is equipped with a table, benches, and a brick barbecue, offering an ideal setting for informal gatherings. An outdoor gym area is situated on a slightly lower terrace for guests who wish to maintain their fitness routine even while on holiday.

A delightful wooden veranda further enriches the outdoor offering, while evening illumination placed at strategic points throughout the garden creates a magical atmosphere around the pool and across the entire property, perfect for dining outdoors while admiring enchanting sunsets.
The centrepiece of the outdoor area is the splendid infinity pool, positioned on the same level as the house and reached across a short stretch of lawn. Rectangular in shape, it measures 4 x 10 m with a constant depth of 1.50 m, and is lined in PVC with salt purification, internal lighting, and 4 submerged steps for easy water access.
