Villa Petrarca strategically positioned in the western part of Chianti

Villa Il Petrarca stands at top of a hill – an aristocratic mansion and twenty-acre estate overlooking the quietly beautiful Tuscan countryside. The mansion dates back to the 18th century and has frescoed ceilings. Besides the 4 bedrooms, the house disposes of two wide halls with frescoes, kitchen, dining room, sitting room, study and a vast surrounding meadow. This villa has all the fascination of past times: beautiful frescoes, antique furniture, prints and books, precious art. The rooms are bright and spacious and the living spaces are amazing in size and comfort. Fireplaces and a piano complete the atmosphere. The kitchen allows family meal preparations and opens directly onto the garden and the gazebo for all fresco dining.

The villa is located just outside Fucecchio, a town situated in the middle of Tuscany, in a central position from Florence (45Km - 28 miles), Pisa (42Km), Lucca (35Km) and Pistoia (30Km). One can easy reach in ten minutes the villa with the Florence-Sea motorway (Altopascio) and with the toll-free motorway Florence-Pisa-Leghorn. The villa used to be a hunting property. It is located just outside Fucecchio, a town between Empoli and Pisa, an ideal base for Tuscan explorations. A gravel, tree lined driveway leads along a farm to the villa. It is possible to walk to a tiny village (less than 2 miles away) where you can find a coffee shop and a grocery store. The area, immersed in the woods of the Cerbaie hills, is very near the Padule of Fucecchio, where one can easily go in a few minutes by car: that’s the ideal place for excursions by foot, by bicycle or by horse. The Padule of Fucecchio is a very interesting ecological place, as it is the largest internal swamp in Italy.

The villa was more then we expected and then some. 10 foot high ceilings and beautiful countryside in a small town.”
M. P. NY

“This was probably the most beautiful place we have stayed at in Italy, the villa was beautiful, the family that owns it was so accommodating we could not have asked for anything more.”
