External Description:
Typical historical Tuscan villa with exclusive swimming pool. This independent villa, built in the second half of the 18th century, is the center of a property of over 18 acres of woods and olive groves. It is on the last western slopes of Mount Albano, approximately 250 meters above sea level. Originally it was composed of two farm houses which have been joined together (maintaining however a certain independence if required).
The external walls are covered with typical local stone as are almost all the surrounding houses, preserving the original aspect of the building as when it was constructed more than 200 years ago. The villa overlooks over typical Tuscan countryside - hills and olive groves, woods of chestnut and durmast trees - all immersed in an oasis of peace. The few cars which pass by belong to the people living in the area.
In the huge garden of 3.000 sqm, you will find the beautiful swimming-pool, 6x12 meters and 1.40 meters depth, which is exclusive to the guests of the villa. It is situated on a natural terrace a few meters below the villa level and has a wide view of the valley below. It is an overflow pool and is equipped with hydro-massage, swim-jets system for water treadmill and changing room with shower and WC. The night lighting of the pool and its surrounds is particularly suggestive. The cleaning system of the pool insures utmost hygiene and eliminates any possible inconvenience caused by the chlorine. The water is slightly saline and contains the same percentage of salt as the human eye. The pool is open from mid April to mid October (under normal climatic conditions). There is a sunbathing area with umbrellas, chairs, tables and outdoor chaise lounges. Further down to the right of the pool there is a relax area with a gazebo and chairs. There is also a small children's corner.
Attractions
The villa is located in an area called the Valdinevole, as yet unruined by mass tourism, and presenting all the characteristic natural and artistic aspects of the Tuscan countryside.
The villa is most strategically placed: away from the chaos of the cities but with easy access to Tuscan "musts". In fact, 95% of the symbolic Tuscan landmarks can be reached within an hour and a half by car.
Montecatini Terme (5km.) is 50 mins. to Pisa and 50 mins. to Florence by train. Monsummano Terme (2km.) is the nearest town and has 15.000 inhabitants and all necessary facilities and shops etc.
Within a range of 15/20 mins. by car there are many places of interest to visit - the Giusti Grottos with their hot thermal baths, the Monsummano caves, the Pistoia hills and mountains (skiing in the Winter), the Svizzera Pesciatina, innumerable Romanic churches, the Fucecchio swamplands (of great interest for the local flora and fauna).
