Villa Maremmana

Villa Maremmana is a luxurious and unique villa, set in its own oasis of natural beauty in the heart of Maremma—the "Wild Wild West" of Tuscany. Family owned for over 100 years, this farmhouse has been carefully restored by the owners, who have extended their restoration to the villa's outdoor grounds, reflecting the architectural and landscape traditions of this fascinating part of Tuscany. Maremmana has been decorated with the perfect combination of style and comfort—the gorgeous, warm color palette creates a relaxing, welcoming and sophisticated atmosphere.

On the ground floor, a double entrance hall leads to generous living spaces, including a living room with central fireplace, a dining room with a traditional Tuscan fireplace, study with computer and desk, sitting room with entertainment center and projection TV, and a large, fully-equipped kitchen. For comfort and convenience, a laundry and ironing room and guest bathroom are also located on the ground level. On the upper floor, six bedrooms and five bathrooms all maintain Maremmana's high level of style and sophistication. Each bathroom is spacious and has a beautiful, double stone sink and towel heater. Four of the bathrooms have a stone tub as well as a glass-door shower. The upper floor also features a billiard room and a large terrace overlooking the countryside, perfect for family breakfasts.

The villa's outdoor areas are generously furnished for relaxing and dining al fresco—perfect spots to enjoy the estate's olive oil, wine, honey and homemade jams. The villa's beautiful swimming pool is surrounded by the unparalleled tranquility of the Maremman countryside. The pool house offers the added luxury of a Turkish bath, and guests can also spend time outdoors enjoying table tennis.

For sailing lovers, trips to the islands of the Tuscan archipelago can be arranged on board the estate's yacht. The famous, bustling Puntala harbor is 35 minutes away by car. A nearby horseback-riding center offers guided excursions, tennis is a 5 minute drive away, and the spectacular beaches of the Maremmana coast are only 30 minutes away by car.

This estate’s completely private 12-hole, 10-green golf course (only a 10 minute drive away) adds an exceptional level of luxury and recreation to this already wonderful villa. The course is in complete harmony with its environment, surrounded by big cork oaks, bordered by small streams, and with lakes forming beautiful obstacles.

A nearby horseback riding center offers guided excursions, for experienced riders, with the possibility to ride all the way to the sea. Tennis court is 5 minutes away by car. Daily boat excursions can be arranged from the nearby harbor. The famous, bustling Punt Ala harbor is 35

minutes away by car. Two world-class spas are nearby, offering thermal baths, massage, and the most advanced aesthetic and curative treatments.

This extraordinarily lovely stretch of Italy sits between Rome and Pisa, offering expansive, breathtaking views of the islands of Giglio and Elba. Highlights of the area include the unspoiled fishing village of Castiglione della Pescaia, endless stretches of incomparable beaches, and the medieval village of Massa Marittima. This enchanting cobble-stoned village has become greatly popular and is home to many international artists and socialites. Also worth a visit is the magical and mysterious city of Volterra, with its roots in three thousand years of history. Today the city preserves above all its medieval qualities, not only in its 12th-century city walls, but also in its urban layout with narrow streets, palaces, tower houses and churches. Strongly recommended are visits to the surrounding towns of Populonia and Baratti, Suvereto, Campiglia Marittima, Castagneto Carducci and Bolgheri.

Numerous day trip possibilities include the chic harbor of Puntala and the major art cities of Siena, Pisa and Florence. Boat rentals for cruising around the coast are available, and private tours of the region's many acclaimed wineries can be arranged.
