VILLA TANIA 8

Toscana - Siena - CHIUSI

Description:

PRIVATE STRUCTURE (lease only). Imagine a house nestled in the bucolic landscape of the hills between Tuscany and Umbria, in the quiet of a green park with lots of recreation areas and an infinity pool. Imagine it just a few steps away from a lovely Etruscan borgo where time seems to stand still. Imagine it overlooking the Valdichiana and the blue waters of Lake Trasimeno from atop a hill. This is Villa Tania, a recently built house, ultimate expression of functionality and aesthetics. Indoors the terracotta and the wood of the floors and ceilings, the typical materials of rural houses, blend perfectly with the clean essential lines of the modern décor that is enriched with designer accessories like the asymmetric mirrors, abstract pictures, contemporary-style lighting and hi-tech systems. Many solutions have been studied to maximize space and to create quiet corners, for example the kitchen and living room, which face out onto the two porches, connect the house to the garden with extreme simplicity while the delightful living room loft, furnished with pouf and chaise longue, is ideal for a few minutes of peaceful relaxation. But the real gem of Villa Tania is, without a doubt, the exclusive wellness area with whirlpool tub, Finnish sauna and chromotherapy shower: just close the door and you will leave behind the stress of everyday life. Five minutes away is Chiusi, in the southernmost part of the province of Siena on the border with Umbria and close to that with Lazio, the perfect destination for those who wish to immerse themselves in history and to rediscover the pleasures of a simple and generous land, full of flavour, stories and folklore. Siena, Arezzo, Perugia, Pienza, Montalcino and many other tourist destinations are within easy reach.

Interior:

The three floors of the villa are connected internally, two of them with entrance from the garden. The entrance on the ground floor leads into a spacious open-plan kitchen and living room, with loft and dining area, and then on to a hallway leading to a double bedroom with ensuite bathroom with shower, a twin bedroom with joinable beds and a bathroom with shower. From the hallway an iron staircase leads up to the first floor with a double bedroom and a bathroom with shower while, from the living room, a staircase leads down to the basement floor consisting of a spacious living room with kitchenette, dining area and exit to the garden, a double bedroom with ensuite bathroom with shower, a gym, a room with whirlpool tub, sauna and chromotherapy shower, a bathroom with shower and a laundry.

Park:

The vast, fully fenced, one-hectare park of Villa Tania spreads over several levels and includes 3500 sq m of garden with plants of all kinds alternating in an explosion of shapes, hues and scents and creating a varied and pleasant scenario seen from the windows of the house. The manicured lawn, lit up at night by lamps, is enriched by typical Tuscan vegetation: olive and oak trees, walnut, pomegranate and fruit trees, a long row with alternating cypress trees and lavender bushes, sinuous climbing plants winding around the pillars of the two porches, one furnished with table, chairs and a mobile barbecue and the other with outdoor seating. But the true spectacle lies in the amphitheatre of colours that brighten the rise behind the sunbathing area, sown with herbs, clumps of pampas grass, agapanthus, evergreen shrubs with white, red, pink and violet flowers, ground-hugging cotoneaster plants with their red berries and, then again, dense oleanders, delicate roses and lovely irises, a real feast for the eyes and spirit, establishing an authentic contact with nature. Finally, a few metres from the automatic gate is a 400 sq m parking area with space for five cars. Please notice that photos are taken in spring, therefore flower blossoming, and the colours of the gardens' grass could be different at the moment of your arrival at the villa.

Swimming Pool:

In front of the ground floor living area a wide stretch of lawn ends on one side with a short flight of steps while on the other side it continues to a ramp which, surrounded by luxuriant flower beds, leads to the pool which can also be reached from the basement floor across a section of the garden, being on the same level. The pool measures 5 x 15 m, with a depth ranging from 1.40 to 1.50. It is lined in PVC, has salt purification, Roman steps for access to the water, a cover for the night, internal lights and the possibility of being heated. Its two infinity sides look out over the landscape, taking in all the details; added to all these amenities is the 80 sq m teak-paved solarium area equipped with sunbeds, deckchairs, outdoor hot and cold-water shower, four umbrellas and two seating areas, one in the open air and one set up under the gazebo. The pool can be heated on request from May to September.

TO DO

Location and distances


4 km away is Chiusi, a very old town whose first traces date back to the second millennium BC with the first villages of farmers and shepherds and which would then become one of the most important and powerful cities of northern Etruria, a past that lives on today in the National Etruscan Museum which, housed in a neoclassical building, contains rare finds. As well as all services, restaurants, shops and supermarkets, Chiusi has a railway station, with trains to Rome, Florence and other major centres, while 10 minutes away is the A1 (Autostrada del Sole) motorway exit. So you can travel easily through southern Tuscany and Umbria to visit art cities, spa resorts, natural beauties and wine and food routes: Siena, Cortona, Perugia and Orvieto for history and culture buffs; the Val di Chiana, Mount Amiata, Lake Trasimeno and the Val d'Orcia (UNESCO World Heritage Site) for excursionists, outdoor sports fans and photographers; Sarteano, Cetona, Citta della Pieve and Montepulciano for those looking for typical products and cuisine; San Casciano dei Bagni and Chianciano Terme for relaxing in the thermal waters and wellness centres.
