Casale Montegiovi has all the warmth and atmosphere of Tuscan farmhouses, with exposed wooden beams, terracotta floors, built-in kitchen, Barberino stone for the walls and prevalence of wooden furniture. The house is located between the Val d'Orcia, an area renowned for the Crete Senesi and centres of great interest such as Pienza and Montalcino, and the Maremma known for its extensive countryside that extends to the Tyrrhenian Sea. It is located a few kilometres from Castel del Piano and allows guests to spend a relaxing holiday as well as making excursions to places like Montalcino, a borgo known worldwide for the production of Brunello wine, or to the most beautiful beaches of the Tuscan coast. Castel del Piano is part of the โAssociazioni Cittร del Vino e Cittร dell'Olioโ (Associations of Wine and Oil Cities): a network of towns (11 in the province of Grosseto) with a winegrowing vocation that together form a circuit of hotels, farm holiday structures, restaurants, wine bars and quality wineries. Within easy reach of the property are many places of interest in the surroundings, ranging from delightful medieval borghi such as Abbadia San Salvatore, Arcidosso, Santa Fiora, Montalcino, Sovana or Pienza, to countless spa resorts (Saturnia, Bagni San Filippo, Bagno Vignoni, Chianciano Terme and San Casciano dei Bagni), to seaside resorts on the Tyrrhenian coast and to parks and nature reserves, the pride of this splendid strip of Tuscan territory. Siena and Grosseto are both about an hour's drive away as are the Maremma Regional Park and the beaches of Marina di Grosseto, Talamone and Castiglione della Pescaia.

The completely fenced-in property extends over 2500 sq m on three terraces. On the first level is the entrance forecourt with the house, the annex, the pergola with dining table a few metres from both, the laundry room, the mobile barbecue and the stone steps that give access to the various levels of the property. On a second terrace is the basement of the annex, the jasmine-covered pergola with the convenient outdoor masonry kitchen consisting of a two-plate stovetop, a sink, table and chairs. From here a stone staircase on one side and tufa steps on the other lead to the third terrace with the pool, garden and parking area. The park contains chestnut trees, oaks, rosemary and fig trees. The garden part (800 sq m) is planted with mixed lawns with olive trees. The recommended parking area is at the end of the garden, accessed via a manual vehicle-accessible gate, with up to 3 uncovered parking spaces. The entrance courtyard with automatic vehicle-accessible gate can accommodate up to 2 cars. The irrigation system is automatic, the external lights are partly crepuscular and partly manual.Please notice that photos are taken in spring, therefore flower blossoming, and the colours of the gardens' grass could be different at the moment of your arrival at the villa.
Swimming Pool:
The horseshoe-shaped pool measures 8 x 8.5 m with a constant depth of 1.50 m and has chlorine purification and 6 easy steps for entry. The pool lining and the solarium area are both in light grey stoneware tiles that give the water a transparent, crystalline appearance. The 100 sq m solarium delineated by a stone wall is equipped with umbrellas, sunbeds, armchairs, pool mattresses, small tables and a cold-water shower. Continuing on from the solarium is a 40 sq m pergola in wood and fabric, installed on the lawn, with two king size hammocks. The swimming pool lies at a lower level than the house and the annex, 20 m away. It is reached from the house down 15 terracotta steps and a small grass ramp or down 15 tufa steps from the outdoor kitchen. The lighting inside the pool (two lights) and in the solarium area (lights and lamps) allow you to enjoy the pool in the evening and at night as well. The pool is available from the last Saturday of April to the first Saturday of October.
