Former farm (partly attested as early as the 13th century) lovingly renovated in the old style (hand-baked bricks, chestnut beams, etc.) but with modern techniques of bio architecture, we have now invested in a green future and converted the villa to be completely 'green' in terms of energy: a photovoltaic system supplies the electricity, and a heat pump provides the heating. The photovoltaic panels do not disturb the beauty of the old house but are mounted on a pergola above the parking place, which also provides shade for the cars.
The villa is located on 'rota', our own hill opposite the hill with the old village center of Sovicille (350 m as the crow flies), and promises complete peace and all comforts (large eat-in kitchen, living room, 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, equipped for outdoor living erraces paved with cotto like the Piazza del Campo in Siena, greenery, forest, large pool (9.10x4.60m, 50m3 water); satellite TV, free Wifi internet access. The location of the property (7000 sqm) at the edge of the natural park 'la Montagnola' is so quiet that the deer sometimes venture into the meadow behind the house; rare birds, squirrels, etc. live between the ancient oak trees, but this idyll is only a 5-minute walk to the village and barely more than 10 minutes by car to Siena.

In Sovicille you can find: grocery stores, bars, restaurants, bank, post office, pharmacy, church, household goods, children’s playground, often dancing on weekend; in the neighboring village (Rosia, 5km) supermarket; outskirts of Siena (9 km) shopping center.
