The Tuscany 'Villa' is located in a tiny medieval hamlet closed to the famous fortress of Monteriggioni. Mid way between Florence and Siena it is most central to all important sights of Tuscany. This luxury Villa represents 700 years of Tuscany history, once being part of the fortified hamlet of Strove. Completely renovated some years ago and retouched in 2013, it still has its typical flair thanks to its original old oak beam ceilings and "terracotto" floors. It is elegantly but very comfortable furnished with beautiful antique pieces of Tuscany , most of them handpicked over years by the owners, the cosmopolitan Italian couple Alessandra and Emanuele. With its back and sides, the Villa is incorporated into the external, fortified walls of Strove. Step out the back door and you are right on the old charming market place, within steps to shopping facility, a bar and restaurant. The house's front with the lovely terrace is facing to the east with breathtaking 180° views onto the close Siena hills, the below gardens with private Pool and the famous Monteriggioni castle. Its setting is very private. This is a "Natural resort Area" where it is possible to watch protected birds and sometimes, during the evening roe deers and foxs. Arrival is on the circular village road, used only by very few locals. Since the house has a raised position, entry to the property is up some stairs to the airy terrace with plenty of Tuscany garden furniture inviting you to a sun-flooded breakfast or 'alfresco aperitif' admiring the surrounding scenery. A jasmine covered cast-iron fence guarantees privacy. Smelling roses are located at the house iron gate entrance. One enters into the vast ground-floor L-shaped reception area that also serves as dining room and cosy lounge (Satellite TV, dvd, cd player) Wi-Fi free Internet access . Part of the room is also occupied by the well-furnished kitchen with its raised open fireplace . The kitchen offers all that a cook might want: a 4 flame gas stove, electric oven, large fridge/freezer combination, dishwasher, microwave, american + italian coffeemaker, toaster, plenty of dishes and pots, etc.etc. A staircase of Tuscany grey sandstone leads upstairs to the sleeping and living sections of the house. At the top of the stairs is a sliding door that opens onto a hall. To the left is a twin bedded room (beds can be united into a double on request), with ensuite complete bathroom with shower stall. To the right is a beautiful double bedroom with ensuite complete bathroom with shower stall. A last door in the hall, to the left and down one step, opens into the formal living room with large monumental fireplace, large enough to burn entire logs, decorated as it is customs with the family's coat of arms. On the left of the living room is a door to one bedroom, a double bedroom with delightful eagle nest-type balcony with breathtaking views with ensuite complete bathroom with shower stall. A door on the right of the living room remains closed. On the right and down one step, is a landing with a door that opens onto an external flight of stairs that leads down to the hamlet piazza, where guests can arrive also by car to let off luggage. Another door in the landing opens into a laundry room with iron and ironing board. From all large airy windows (all fitted with mosquito screens) you may admire the Siena countryside at your feet. Across the road one enters through a cast-iron gate into the paradise of a 5000 sqm well-cared park area with its Pool (7x14 mt) at exclusive use of our guests, extended lawn, laurel hedges, fragrant roses, a grape-covered loggia and barbecue facilities.

The Villa is located along the "Via Francigena", the Medieval Pilgrims road that goes to Monteriggioni and Siena. We would like to share a bit of the history of this particular place. The villa, situated right next to the famous pilgrim road Via Francigena, is located in the hamlet of Strove of "Etruscan" origins. It was later transformed into a Roman 'castrum' and again served military functions in the medieval wars between Siena and Florence. Since the walled fortress of Monteriggioni, dominating the country-side is very close, the hamlet of Strove was probably connected to the military machinery of the Siena republic. Actually the first historical mentions of the Villa and Strove talk of its partial destruction in the 14th century and its turning into a farmer's village. After the decline of the Siena republic the Villa was rebuild, its old remaining parts renovated. Internal and external prospects were transformed and enriched so it became a very elegant aristocratic family residence where contemporary poets and artists were hosted especially during summer season. Between the end of 17th century and the beginning of the 19th century, due to a very strong deforestation farming became good business. Consequently the 'Villa ' was transformed into a more sober country house with extend grounds cultivated with wine, olives, grain and fruits. But thanks to the efforts of the current owners, who bought the property in the 1800, the Villa as returned to its origins and splendor as a medieval villa around Siena. Attention "snowbirds" !! Tuscany offers pleasant temperatures, low rates, all major Italian sights within 1 days drive, hot spring and spa, dining and wining at its best. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the villa: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 4 bathrooms - Bidet - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Stereo - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Designated smoking areas ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - Near a hospital - Near a zoo - Near an outlet shopping centre ### Things to do - Bicycles - Billiards/pool table - Golf - Tennis - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Swimming nearby - Theme park nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Bicycles - Garden - Unit size: 2,110 square feet ## Similar properties ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/33000000/32440000/32431800/32431794/006b8ee9.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Villa with private pool on 25 acres in the heart of Chianti, close to Siena Pievasciata - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Pet-friendly 9.8 Exceptional 74 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-24&endDate=2025-11-25&selected=32431794&PinnedHotelID=32431794&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/32000000/31570000/31566400/31566389/a7679990.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Legnaia countryside luxury property, shared pool, ideal base to discover Tuscany Siena - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 17 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-24&endDate=2025-11-25&selected=31566389&PinnedHotelID=31566389&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor pool, a heated pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/33000000/32160000/32159700/32159648/243022ab.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Beautiful house on Chianti hilltop with exceptional views.

You really feel like you’re in a Disney castle in the home and in the little village! Our hosts were so easy to communicate with and so patient with us as we arrived much later than planned. They even went to great lengths to try and help us find food upon arrival because our kids were starving. It’s a fantastic location if you plan to take day trips all over Tuscany. It was nice to be centrally located so we could head out to Florence, San Gimignano, Lucca, and Pisa and only have about an hour or a little over an hour drive to each place. I would definitely stay here again. ##### Hayley A.

The owners Emanuele & Alessandra made us feel very welcome throughout our stay & their trips & restaurant recommendations were excellent. The weather was hot so the fresh water pool got used every day & it was a favourite for all our inflatables or just chilling out. We would love to come back & explore the region more as the nearby villages are sleepy, it’s like going back in time. We would highly recommend this Villa to anyone as it’s location is just wonderful & the views of Tuscany breath taking. ##### Michael S.

Happy to give advice and sorted a broken fan quickly. They lived next door but were not intrusive. Lovely area with mix of historical sites, siena, ‘normal’ towns, vineyards, restaurants etc. enough to keep any group occupied. There is a road and short walk to pool which may put some off, no toilet or fridge near pool so lots of trips back and forth. Accommodation large, every room has en suite and easy to separate children from adults who prefer a lie in. Living area and kitchen are basic but functional. Only desk and standing fans throughout which was fine but some guests would prefer ceiling fans or AC. Overall I would recommend to others and we had a lovely time there. Thank you. ##### James F.

The setting is a 13th century stone house, with a patio, and in the summer, a pool. It is situated in the small village of Strove, near Monteriggioni and close to Siena. There is a lovely restaurant in the village, along with a small cafe/deli/grocery store, a short walk away. Our hosts, Emanuele and Allessandra, are the most wonderful people you’ll ever meet. They arranged a cooking class for us, which was such great fun, and Allessandra made aprons for each of us. One of our family sustained an injury in Rome, right before we arrived in Strove, and Emanuele and Allessandra took her to the hospital, where they knew the doctor, and translated for her. It is hard to know how to repay such kindness and generosity - so thank you once again! We highly recommend staying here, for a wonderful experience in the Tuscan countryside. ##### Jane M.

Bfast, lunch and dinner and it was packed on Sunday. Bring bug spray for mosquitoes and the wi-fi struggles. W/o car meant 127 for each cab ride one way anywhere bc cabs come from Siena. Uber works but it won’t find a car. We got lucky w a cab from Siena and we used them the entire time. Beautiful part of Tuscany.

Emanuele and Alessandra were the most helpful and welcoming hosts. They booked us a cooking class and were there to help translate. The experience was top notch! We had an issue with a passport and they immediately came to help us which they did not need to do. The accommodations were great. We had 10 people and plenty of rooms and bathrooms. The town was so quaint and beautiful. There was also a gorgeous private pool with towels and floats for the kids! I would highly recommend staying here and would love to come back another time!! ##### Erica C.

It’s beautiful! The views from the house are gorgeous. The house is open and airy. Enough space for our family of 9. The pool was private and for us only. Emmanuelle and Alessandra were wonderful and helpful and happy to share their knowledge of the area. We wished our would could have been longer! ##### Heidi N.

The views and grounds were stunning. The proximity to all of the Tuscan highlights can't be understated. For a family with young children, we appreciated that the villa was in a Hamlet with a restaurant/cafe and small playground nearby. The pool was lovely and the smells of roses and Jasmine greeted us every morning with the songbirds. We would encourage the hosts to consider more comfortable beds and linens - they need updating. We would also have appreciated more clarity on the availability of a crib (listed, but not available). The hosts also live in the same physical property but were quite discrete. Overall, we had a lovely family vacation and made lasting memories. ##### Allison K.

They even had us follow them to the local grocery store so we wouldn’t get lost! The villa is very well equipped and in the perfect position for day trips around Tuscany. The pool area was beautifully maintained and we spent many happy hours swimming with our young grandchildren. Alessandra cooked us an amazing four course meal to celebrate our birthdays. The food was fantastic! Thank you Alessandra and Emanule for sharing your beautiful villa with us. ##### Gary M.

It’s in a small village of Strove with short drives to Monteriggioni, Abaddia Isola, medium drives to Sienna, Volterra, and San Gimigiano and totally reasonable day trips to regions south of Sienna or north to Florence. View from the bedroom windows and back patio are simply lovely and the hosts were wonderful and so welcoming! ##### Sean G.

The villa is steeped in history. The grounds are lovely with amazing views and a beautiful pool area. Only negatives were exceptionally hard beds and very rough bed linens. We enjoyed an excelllent dinner in the villa cooked by Alessandra. Wifi needs improvement. Highly recommend this accommodation. ##### Christine Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John H., Vaughan, Ontario, Canada 25 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Our stay was outstanding.

My family of 6 stayed here for a week in August and it was just wonderful. Firstly, Emanuele & Alessandra are just the sweetest couple and were there to guide us from the beginning to the end of our stay. The house is gorgeous and huge, with the most spectacular views. I woke up each morning and just stared at the view from my balcony. The pool is also amazing! It is like having a resort pool all to yourself, my children wanted to be in it all the time, but we were out exploring Tuscany each day. This house is in the perfect spot to explore all of Tuscany, we drove to Pisa, Florence, Montepulciano and my favorite place was San Gimignano; such special, beautiful places,. We can’t wait to return to this beautiful home again. ##### Karen P.
