Restored by an Italian architect and his interior designer wife, the villa is in an ideal location, perched on the very top of a hill, with stunning views of the Val d'Orcia valley.

It is this couple's sixth restoration in what some say is the prettiest area of Tuscany. The owners are quite the visionaries and embrace each restoration with such creativity and elegance. Their creative journey began the moment they started searching for the perfect abandoned structure, neglected for centuries. The most important factor in this equation is location: close to towns, yet with stunning views and privacy. They then began the floor plans, including all the creature comforts we are all accustomed to and demand when on vacation: en suite bathrooms with good water pressure and fixtures, lighting, state of the art appliances, satellite TV, WiFi Internet and heated infinity pool with a view. This artistic duo also have a unique talent in furnishing their homes in the style that attracts all of us to Tuscany – we like to call it rustic elegance: wood beams whitewashed in pastel colors, polished ancient terracotta flooring, unique country furnishings, all adding up to a home as comfortable and inviting as the one in your dreams. And, dreams do come true - all you have to do is plan to vacation at Redaelli!

Spend lazy afternoons in the infinity pool, overlooking the gorgeous Val d'Orcia valley and the surrounding, rolling hills. The hot tub is on a lower level, with the same stunning views.
