Villa Palaia

This exclusive design villa is a recently renovated farmhouse with private pool and organic olive grove (10 ha). The villa is only a few kilometres away from the important art cities of the region such as Pisa, Florence, Lucca, Siena and San Gimignano. The village of Palaia, a medieval village of Etruscan origin, is only a 10-minute walk away. The refreshing genuineness of the historic village, where lively Italianità and a constant bustle of activity prevail, gives a glimpse of everyday Tuscan life. There are several small grocery shops, a pharmacy, a pizzeria, a hairdresser, two busy bars and four different but typical restaurants. The village is bordered by an old town wall and its archway, which adds to its charm. The house and its management are a reflection of the attachment to the Italian culture and people. This love for the country and its people is the basis of Villa Palaia and wants to be passed on to its guests. The property extends over a 2,000sqm well-kept garden with a pool. It offers a magnificent panoramic view of 360°, which means an unobstructed distant view in all directions of 30-50 km! Next to the pool, nestled in the olive grove, is an antique, renovated barn with integrated kitchen and cosy dining area. Further places with free view around the villa and especially a loggia with lounge invite to stay. A private road leads to the property (with electric gate and video camera), which ends next to the house in a large parking area. The owners' passion for original, high quality materials, Italian design and local craftsmanship make staying in the country house a special experience. The living room features a romantic fireplace and two magnificent panoramic windows invite you to relax. The five bedrooms and other rooms are equipped with air conditioning and underfloor heating. Thus, the villa is habitable at any time of the year: classic in the summer holidays, perfectly suitable for city excursions in spring or autumn and last but not least for romantic Christmas holidays. The grandiose setting also allows for events such as weddings or photo shoots. Thanks to the outstanding quality of the villa, staying in the holiday home is a perfect way to spend a time of absolute relaxation and well-being with family and friends, in harmony with the unique Tuscan landscape and embedded in the tradition of centuries-old culture.
