Villa Gaiole

Located on top of a classically Tuscan hilltop and surrounded by two hectares of secluded and magical gardens, Villa Gaoile is a 400 year old farmhouse converted into an expansive and luxurious family home. Recently restored to the highest standards of design and ecological principles, this luxury villa fuses the height of Italian style and craftsmanship with open plan exposed stone, wooden beams and abundant original features that's complemented by contemporary furniture, luxury design and modern art. Chianti is located in central Tuscany, only 40km from Florence, 250km from Rome and 15km from Siena. It is located along the river Massellone and was the home of an historically important market for nearby towns and villages. Fantastic cycle routes- home of vintage bike race L'Eroica. Forbes even named Gaiole number one in a list of the most idyllic places to live in Europe! Nearby places to visit include the Parish Church of Spaltenna, the Castels of Vertine, Brolio and Meleto and the Abbey of Coltibuono, a former monastry now turned into a beautiful wine estate. As you can probably guess from the name, Chianti is surrounded by vineyards, many of which are open to visitors.
