This is just about the most charming villa rental in Chianti Tuscany. It used to be a small barn that has been transformed into a luxurious rental villa. This lovely vacation home comes complete with a pool and lovely views of the countryside.

The house offers a nice view of the surrounding countryside and a castle that’s only 500 meters away. Withing the vicinity you’ll find some wide green open spaces with olive-groves and a exquisitely maintained garden. Behind the Italian villa you’ll also find a huge covered terrace that has a fireplace as well as a patio table.

Located near Florence, this beautiful Tuscan villa is, for the most part, tastefully furnished with antique pieces. On the ground floor is a large parlor, a living-room with fireplace, and a dining area ideal for 10 people with access to the covered terrace. Here, you’ll also find a double bedroom with a king size bed plus bathroom and shower. The fully equipped kitchen has a dining area that can comfortably seat seven people.
