Chianti Vistas


It's hard to believe this property is just a stone's throw from Florence, when all around as far as the eye can see is an ocean of sunflowers, vineyards and cypress forests, broken only occasionally by a Tuscan stone farmhouse. To reach the enclave, you drive down a narrow "white road," as gravel roads are called in Italy. You soon see the cream-colored guest houses, carefully arranged on a gently sloping hill below the owners' elegant 17th-century villa. In just minutes, you have crossed an invisible threshold into another world of impeccably tended details and warm courteous hospitality.

Chianti Vistas is small, with only ten apartments. Their appointments are stunning, including color satellite TV with English language channels, direct-dial telephone, brand-new kitchens, terracotta floors, high wood-beamed ceilings, central heating and furniture painted in soothing pastel colors.

Each apartment features one or two double bedrooms, a large living room with sleep sofa and wooden dining table, a kitchenette, and a roomy bathroom with shower. Two of the larger apartments have two bathrooms. One-bedroom apartments measure 550 sq. ft.; two-bedrooms measure 700 sq. ft.

From the large swimming pool, you will have a sweeping view of the Val di Pesa, which describes a crescent just south of Florence. You are sitting less than two miles from the official northwest border of Chianti Classico. This makes you perfectly positioned for day trips to all the hilltowns of Chianti as well as to Pisa (40 miles), Lucca (50 miles) and western Tuscany, Siena (40 miles), San Gimignano (30 miles) and southern Tuscany. Not to mention Florence, only 12 miles down the road. Your dashing young host, Cristiano, keeps his office filled with literature about local attractions, restaurants and events, which he is happy to share with you to help you plan several satisfying day trips from the farm.
