Villa Chiaroscuro is a superb Tuscan country villa with a perfect, secluded, hill top location in the middle of a 2,500 acre private estate. A winding tree-lined, private country road leads to the property, which is situated within its own gated grounds and gardens. Overlooking the entire estate, Villa Chiaroscuro boasts views full circle while the neighboring hill towns of Montaione, Gambassi and Castelfiorentino are visible on the horizon. A privately owned family home, originally restored for personal use, Villa Chiaroscuro is a highly comfortable, luxury property with beautiful grounds and breathtaking views.
The extremely spacious ground floor living area opens out through a series of original Tuscan brick archways. On the one side a cozy sitting/reading room offers Sat TV and VCR facilities and the adjacent main living room is dominated by a massive Tuscan fireplace. The magnificent double dining area features a beautiful heavy antique main table that opens up to seat more than 25 guests quite easily.
The villa offers ten bedrooms, comprising six elegant double rooms and two spacious suites, all with en suite or private bathrooms and can therefore accommodate twenty guests comfortably. All bedrooms and the two first floor suites are fully air-conditioned.
The large, highly functional and very pretty country kitchen is fully equipped to keep the most particular chef happy and enabling easy catering for large groups of family and friends.
The walls are washed in soothing pastel color tones and the furnishings are in an elegant, Tuscan country style with a select number of restored antique pieces of the highest quality. Exposed beamed ceilings, antique Tuscan terra cotta floors, aged wood parquet flooring in all bedrooms and handmade tile and marble bathrooms offer the elegance expected with this type of villa.
The owners have created a magnificent outdoor living room, with a beautiful infinity pool that is strategically placed so it receives the sun from sunrise to sunset with some of the most beautiful panoramic views of Chianti that will make it hard for you to leave the estate. The pool area has a large shaded loggia of antique terracotta floors and classical colonial style teakwood furniture. The loggia overlooks and leads directly down onto the poolside sun terrace. Adjacent to the loggia is a huge open barbecue and grill, with roasting spit and a large stone washbasin and work area.
The beautifully landscaped garden offers extensive Mediterranean shrub and herbaceous borders, rose and lavender gardens, pine and cypress trees, an olive grove and a large English~American lawn area which is an ideal play area for children. Both the pool and gardens are lit at night creating a magical atmosphere to sit and relax under a canopy of stars.
Chiaroscuro is a large, spacious home, offering total comfort and privacy. Ideal for family reunions, a large group of friends or business associates, this magnificent villa offers a Tuscan atmosphere immersed in the Chianti countryside with large communal rooms to gather together but still offering individual privacy in its well appointed and elegant rooms and suites.
