Description:

PRIVATE STRUCTURE (Lease only). Molino l'Oppino stands in a privileged position, beside a lovely stream, with an extraordinary landscape of vineyards to frame it: Montepulciano on one side, Montefollonico and Pienza on the other and behind, the picturesque Val di Chiana with the Apennines on the horizon. Built at the end of the 18th century as a consortium mill, it was transformed into a farmhouse dedicated to the cultivation of cereals, olive trees and pastures; the recent restoration intervention is the result of careful and skilful renovation that has bestowed on it charm and peculiarity in full respect of the local tradition. From the wooden ceilings, to the Tuscan terracotta floors, to the choice of the furnishings, everything has contributed to creating a welcoming domestic atmosphere. Molino l'Oppino has the typical features of a Tuscan farmhouse in stone and brick that the restoration works have respected and enhanced. The living area with large brick barrel vaults, the terracotta floor and the chestnut ceiling beams restore perfectly the warmth and hospitality characteristic of these buildings; the kitchen in cast iron and brass with large table invites you to convivial meals following tradition. The first floor with the pastel colours of the plaster and tapestries, the exposed walls and, again, the chestnut ceiling beams preserves the intimacy of the sleeping area. Molino l'Oppino, immersed in the splendid scenery between the Val di Chiana and the Val d'Orcia, is located just 4.5 km from Montepulciano, a precious Renaissance treasure chest containing rare beauties that make it a town known throughout the world: culture, art, nature, cuisine, without forgetting the Vino Nobile, one of the most popular Italian wines. Molino l'Oppino stands in a truly unique and perfect location for those who love the countryside, privacy and, at the same time, the convenience of being near a town equipped with all shops and services; an ideal location for visiting famous tourist destinations such as Siena, Pienza, Cortona, San Gimignano, Montalcino, Assisi, Lake Trasimeno, Orvieto and Perugia. For wine lovers there are many choices: the house stands among the best Tuscan vineyards, renowned throughout the world for the excellent red wines produced in the hills of the Chianti, Montepulciano and Montalcino regions. For those in search of relaxation and well-being, the renowned thermal spas of Chianciano Terme and Bagno Vignoni are less than 30 minutes away. Molino l'Oppino is located halfway between Florence and Rome: from the A1 motorway it is a pleasant 20-minute journey along picturesque country roads among vineyards, olive groves and cypress paths.

The entrance on the ground floor opens into the living area consisting of a single large room divided by imposing stone walls that contains the living room with sofas and Smart TV, the fully-equipped kitchen with dining table and direct exit out to the wisteria-covered pergola with the outdoor dining table. From the living room a hallway leads to a guest bathroom and to the staircase up to the first floor which consists of the master bedroom with ensuite bathroom with tub and shower and garden exit; a double bedroom with queen size bed, ensuite bathroom with shower and garden exit; a double bedroom with ensuite bathroom with shower.

The wisteria-covered pergola with wrought iron table and chairs for outdoor dining is conveniently connected to the kitchen; the cast iron barbecue is just a few steps from the pergola. The parking area with two covered and one uncovered spaces is at the end of the gravel driveway bordered by cypresses.

Location and distances


Molino l'Oppino is located in the municipality of Torrita di Siena and only 4,5 km from the Renaissance town of Montepulciano, known for the grandeur of its Renaissance buildings, for the elegant beauty of its churches and for the "Vino Nobile" , one of the most appreciated Tuscan wines internationally. The geographical position of Montepulciano, between the Val d’Orcia and the Val di Chiana, makes Molino l'Oppino a strategic point from where to explore the beauties of Tuscany. From here you can easily reach the A1 motorway (the Chiusi/Chianciano Terme exit is only 20 km away) to visit cities such as Florence, Siena, Orvieto, Rome while, on the other hand, the provincial road, offering a succession of extraordinary sights and panoramas, will take you to visit the nearby borghi of Bagno Vignoni, Pienza, Montalcino, Cortona and Sarteano, or Upper Lazio (Bolsena, Civita di Bagnoregio, Torre Alfina, Acquapendente). The best-served and most important railway station is in Chiusi, which is only 20 km away. Shops, services, supermarkets, pharmacies, banks, ATMs, bus stops, restaurants, etc. are only 4.5 km from Molino l'Oppino. Montepulciano is also a very lively centre for cultural activities. Among the most famous events: the Cantiere Internazionale d'Arte (in July) and the popular representation of Bruscello (in August). Definitely worth noting is the "Bravio delle Botti": a week of celebrations, meals, processions and parades with 14th century costumes that features the eight districts of the city and ends with an original "palio" on the last Sunday of August; the competition involves two representatives from each district who run pushing a barrel of 80 kg for 2 km uphill in the historic town centre. If you love nature, just outside Montepulciano turn towards Pienza or Monticchiello and after only a few kilometres the wonderful Val d'Orcia begins. If you think of the Tuscan countryside, you have probably seen at least one photo that portrays the harmony and colours typical of this area and this land. The landscape of the Val d'Orcia is made up of hills and gullies, of cypresses isolated on green dunes or harmoniously following the meandering of the roads. Perfectly in tune with the countryside, here and there appear oak woods, vineyards and olive groves. High on the hills are ancient buildings and wonderful fortified borghi. The territory is majestically concluded by the territory of Mount Amiata, which with its 1738 metres is the highest extinct volcano in Italy.

An enchanted place. We have stayed in Tuscan farmhouses every year for the past fifty years and the setting here, the authentic and imaginative conversion, as well as the furnishings were as best as any. What a kitchen for foodies!!!! We loved the variety of the places to sit out. We didn't call upon Rachel's services because we were already pretty independent. You could do with a better guest book/introduction to the area with tips on good shops for food and restaurants and markets and f

Molino l'Oppino is located in the municipality of Torrita di Siena and only 4,5 km from the Renaissance town of Montepulciano, known for the grandeur of its Renaissance buildings, for the elegant beauty of its churches and for the "Vino Nobile" , one of the most appreciated Tuscan wines internationally. The geographical position of Montepulciano, between the Val d’Orcia and the Val di Chiana, makes Molino l'Oppino a strategic point from where to explore the beauties of Tuscany. From here you can easily reach the A1 motorway (the Chiusi/Chianciano Terme exit is only 20 km away) to visit cities such as Florence, Siena, Orvieto, Rome while, on the other hand, the provincial road, offering a succession of extraordinary sights and panoramas, will take you to visit the nearby borghi of Bagno Vignoni, Pienza, Montalcino, Cortona and Sarteano, or Upper Lazio (Bolsena, Civita di Bagnoregio, Torre Alfina, Acquapendente). The best-served and most important railway station is in Chiusi, which is only 20 km away. Shops, services, supermarkets, pharmacies, banks, ATMs, bus stops, restaurants, etc. are only 4.5 km from Molino l'Oppino. Montepulciano is also a very lively centre for cultural activities. Among the most famous events: the Cantiere Internazionale d'Arte (in July) and the popular representation of Bruscello (in August). Definitely worth noting is the "Bravio delle Botti": a week of celebrations, meals, processions and parades with 14th century costumes that features the eight districts of the city and ends with an original "palio" on the last Sunday of August; the competition involves two representatives from each district who run pushing a barrel of 80 kg for 2 km uphill in the historic town centre. If you love nature, just outside Montepulciano turn towards Pienza or Monticchiello and after only a few kilometres the wonderful Val d'Orcia begins. If you think of the Tuscan countryside, you have probably seen at least one photo that portrays the harmony and colours typical of this area and this land. The landscape of the Val d'Orcia is made up of hills and gullies, of cypresses isolated on green dunes or harmoniously following the meandering of the roads. Perfectly in tune with the countryside, here and there appear oak woods, vineyards and olive groves. High on the hills are ancient buildings and wonderful fortified borghi. The territory is majestically concluded by the territory of Mount Amiata, which with its 1738 metres is the highest extinct volcano in Italy.

An enchanted place. We have stayed in Tuscan farmhouses every year for the past fifty years and the setting here, the authentic and imaginative conversion, as well as the furnishings were as best as any. What a kitchen for foodies!!!! We loved the variety of the places to sit out. We didn't call upon Rachel's services because we were already pretty independent. You could do with a better guest book/introduction to the area with tips on good shops for food and restaurants and markets and f

We received excellent help from Simone who did a lot to assist the a luggage delivery problem when our guests' luggage did not make their flight. Despite being on holiday from the day after our arrival he remained totally present in our efforts to have it delivered. First class service.
