Modern/rustic farm house, with the best views in Maremma, a piece of heaven!


NOTE : on GoogleMaps, search for ...Pagiano dei Guerrazzi, 58036 Roccaterighi GR, Italy.

Done up last years by the owners, one of them a Danish architect based in London, this is a 200 year old farmhouse set on a hill top with incredible peace, incredible views EVER. We have restored the old beams and old stone house, but rather than a fussy country style, we have given it a modern loft-like feel : occasional steel beams, metal windows, danish furniture.

There are two terraces for eating and sunset time, which is where you will spend most of your time. Views are 100% free of any road, car, lampposts or our normal busy world! There is a castle top on Momtemassi which light up at night, and we have lights on some of the trees so that at night time, you FEEL the valley.

The bottom floor we have opened up so it is 100m2 of interconnecting space, that is three living rooms areas + kitchen. If we had wanted to make the space more fantastic, we could not - we were so lucky to find the original flag stones and even the original olive mill stones as the farm was the local olive mill at the time. These mill stones we have used as the base of the fireplace, which is open to two of the living spaces.

On the top floor there are three big bedrooms, all traditional cotton floors ( with underfloor heating for winter days), but the main feature is the bathroom. It is HUGE, and it is such a luxury to spend time there. In fact we sacrificed a bedroom so that we could get a really special bathroom!

The grounds are roughly 1kmx1km, so it takes half an hour to walk through our land. We have 164 olive trees, all in production. And there are figs, pears, apples, plums, cherries and fantastic apricots. The part below the house is what you will enjoy most, that we keep well maintained.

Wonderful Tuscan Experience
The property was stunningly beautiful. The views and the sunsets were some of the best we have ever seen. The property manager was very accommodating and easy to communicate with. We had an amazing holiday with our three dogs and our cat. Everyone loved the house and the surrounding property. The owners did an amazing job modernizing the old olive oil mill, incorporating many of the architectural and historical pieces. We will definitely be visiting again and have shared it with our friends and family!

Peaceful house with amazing view.
Sasha's house is in a beautiful location in the hills with the most stunning expansive view over typically Tuscan countryside. It is very peaceful and rural, which is what we were looking for, but within driving distance of plenty of Tuscan attractions. We visited Siena, some lovely hilltop towns, and beaches. Sasha was easy to communicate with. There had been thunderstorms before we arrived and there was no power downstairs in the house when we arrived - when we made Sasha aware of this he immediately did all he could to resolve the issue and arranged for us to put our food in a neighbour's fridge. We did feel however that the house is not set up for the heat (we visited in August). We did not expect there to be air conditioning, however we were very surprised that there were no shutters or blinds - or indeed even curtains in most rooms. This meant we could not block the sun out of the house during the day, and consequently struggled to sleep at night. It also meant early morning wake up calls from the sun because only one bedroom had curtains. Overall we had a lovely week and particularly enjoyed evenings on the terrace. However, a few finishing touches such as shutters or blinds would make the house perfect.

Ein idyllisches Fleckchen
Wir waren zwei Wochen in der wohl wämsten Zeit des Jahres vor Ort und waren sehr froh, ein doch sehr gut isoliertes Haus aus Stein vorzufinden. Wir haben die Zeit in dieser wunderschönen Unterkunft sehr genossen. Das Haus ist sehr großzügig geschnitten und der Einrichtungsstil sucht seinesgleichen. Ein wirklich besonderes und uriges Ambiente. Uns hat dies besonders gut gefallen. Die Aussicht auf das Tal und die anderen Hügel ist wirklich atemberaubend. Wir haben bis spät in die Nacht auf der Terrasse gesessen und diese wunderschöne Kulisse, weißes Sternenfunkeln und Lichterglanz des Tals, genossen. Das Haus hat alles, was man braucht, besonders dankbar haben wir die Solardusche im Außenbereich angenommen. Wenn man mal eine Frage hat, antwortet Sascha, der Vermieter, sofort und ist sehr hilfsbereit. Wir fühlten uns hier sehr gut aufgehoben. Gerne kommen wir wieder! N. Schönebeck

Atemberaubende Aussicht und gute Lage
Wir hatten mit 3 Erwachsenen, 2 Kindern und einem Hund einen tollen Urlaub an diesem schönen Ort. Die Ausgangslage war für uns perfekt, um den Süden der Toskana und die Maremma zu erkunden und die fantastische Aussicht von der Terrasse hat uns einige schöne Frühstücks- und Abendbrot-Momente beschert. Insgesamt haben wir uns sehr wohl gefühlt und die Kommunikation mit Sasha war unkompliziert und reaktionsschnell. Vielen Dank für die Gastfreundschaft!

Haus mit Panoramablick
Großes Haus mit sehr schönem Ausblick auf dem Hügel. Durch eine schmale Schotterstraße per Auto zu erreichen. Trotzdem sehr gute Lage, ruhig und idyllisch. Gastgeber war selber nicht vor Ort, reagierte aber sehr schnell auf Anfragen per Mail oder Mobil.

Tolles Haus in toller Lage
Wir haben zu fünft 10 sehr schöne Tage in Sasha’s Haus verbracht. Die Lage in den Hügeln mit Blick bis zum Meer ist gigantisch. Man kann viele schöne Tagesausflüge an den Strand, nach Grossetto, Saturnia, Massa Maritima uvm. machen. Wir mussten bei der Ankunft ein paar Sachen beiseiteräumen um uns ausbreiten zu können, die Gartenmöbel brauchen teils ein Update und die Abflüsse waren bislang noch nicht repariert. Aber Sasha hat versprochen, sich im Mai darum zu kümmern. Der Charme und die tolle Lage des Hauses machen solche Kleinigkeiten aber mehr als wett. Wir kommen gerne nochmal!

Stilvoll restauriertes Haus mit liebevollen Details, grandioser Aussicht und kleinen Fehlern
Wir haben eine großartige Woche im Herbst in dem Haus verbracht. Die Aussicht über die Maremma bis nach Elba ist spektakulär. Lediglich eine Heizung für die kalten Nächte und der anfängliche Geruch aus dem Abfluss waren etwas störend. Grundsätzlich aber gerne wieder.

Tolles Ferienhaus in Traumlage
Wir, eine fünfköpfige Familie mit Hund, hatten einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt in dem Haus von Sasha. Die Lage des Anwesens auf halber Höhe am Hang mit phantastischer Blick in die Ebene von Grosseto ist perfekt. Das Haus ist sehr stilsicher restauriert, besonders gut hat uns die große Wohn-Essküche mit Natursteinmauerwerk und Holzbalkendecke sowie die beiden großen Terrassen gefallen. Man kann von hier aus schöne Tagesausflüge ans Meer machen und zwischen verschiedenen Badestränden wählen. Mit dem Auto erreicht man viele Sehenswürdigkeiten wie z.B. Massa Marittima, Siena oder Montalcino ebenfalls als Tagesausflug. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten befinden sich in den wenige Kilometer entfernten Ortschaften Sassofortino und Roccastrada. Für Rennradfahrer bietet das nördlich angrenzende Hügelland mit wenig befahrenen Nebenstraßen ein perfektes Revier. Insgesamt sehr zu empfehlen.
