Il Podere
Siena
The property is located in the Montagnola Senese national park and the
secluded hilltop setting near Siena offers stunning views over the Tuscan
countryside, whilst still being close to beautiful historic towns such
as Florence and San Gimignano as well as the Chianti, Montalcino and Montepulciano wine regions.
Il Podere
has an interesting history (dating back to 1204) and having
been a convent until 1504 it was then bought by the important Senese family
of Tolomei. The present owners, are responsible for the sympathetic renovation of
the buildings, retaining many of the original features such as beamed ceilings
and terracotta floors.
Situated near Sovicille, the nearest shops, church and bank
are at Rosia, 5 miles from the property and there is a 9 hole golf course only 15 miles away. Il Podere
is 12 miles west of Siena and within easy reach of San Gimignano and Monteriggioni whilst Florence is only 45 minutes away by car.
Il Podere offers a wide range of accommodation varying
from self-contained studio apartments to a two bedroom detached
villa. The beautiful location provides stunning views of the Tuscan
countryside from the whole property, particularly from the terrace
and swimming pool area.
