This restored farmhouse is a perfect country retreat, especially for those interested in visiting the nearby therapeutic thermal waters spa in San Casciano dei Bagni, an oasis about 10 minutes' drive away. The quaint stone farmhouse is perched atop a narrow, winding road (only small cars recommended), with spectacular views of Mt. Cetona. Your private vista is surrounded by beautiful landscaped grounds and 100 acres of natural woodland. Enjoy dining outside on the spacious patio, or under the covered pergola.
Step inside the villa and you'll feel right at home in the spacious rooms decorated in regional style—the exposed wood ceiling beams and terra cotta floors add a country charm that is heightened by the warmth of two fireplaces (in the large living area, below the ground floor, and in the kitchen, six steps down from there). There are four bedrooms, all with air conditioning, ensuite bathrooms, and satellite TV. Three bedrooms are located in the villa and another bedroom is in the dependence, accessed through a door in the nearby covered pergola (which offers easy dining and scenery viewing—with direct access to the kitchen, dining and living areas).
Villa Bella is a dream escape from the hubbub of the real world, hearkening back to a simpler rural life possible in medieval times. In fact, the incomparable medieval village of Cetona is a mere 15-minute drive away from your country home. The villa offers privacy with all the modern amenities of the 21st century. Enjoy al fresco dining on the patio and under the covered pergola. Spend afternoons beside the outdoor heat...
