7 bedroom luxury Villa for sale in SP34, Siena, Province of Siena, Tuscany

LOCATION
Villa Chigi is located on a hill nestled between the Crete Senesi valley and the Val d'Orcia. The historic property can be reached via a white road, typical of this part of Tuscany. Arriving you can breathe and enjoy the beauty and charm that characterize this hilly area, while remaining just a few minutes away from the services. The gaze can wander freely, among the sinuous peaks of the hills, bouncing between the green of the woods, the rows of cypresses and the "white patches", the biancane, made up of accumulations of sandstone typical of clayey soils mixed with newly formed sand geological. You find yourself immersed in a space of calm, tranquility and beauty, where time seems almost suspended but at the same time, in less than an hour's drive you can reach typical villages of the Tuscan landscape, Pienza, Montepulciano and Cortona or real own cities, such as Florence and Siena.
GARDEN AND OUTDOOR SPACE
The surrounding garden is set up in the Italian style with ornamental flowers of various types, arranged following the geometry of the buildings. The lot is two and a half acres and in its extension it includes: a vegetable garden, a bowling green, a well, an artificial lake, a pad for taking off and landing of helicopters. Between the villa and the larger of the two annexes there is a courtyard paved in terracotta with a star-shaped marble intersection.

FINISHES
The main nucleus of Villa Chigi was built in 1520, when the Chigi family commissioned a hunting estate from Tommaso Baldassarre Peruzzi. The residence then expanded over the centuries and in 2015 the current owners undertook a fine and sensitive restoration which returned the prestigious property equipped with the contemporary comforts we see today.
