Description from owner

Description

Poggio ai Gelsi is located in the south of Tuscany between the hills of Val d'Orcia, Siena and halfway between Montepulciano and Pienza. The property enjoys a magnificent view over Montichiello and Pienza. The colours of the nature in this corner of Tuscany are beautiful and change day after day, with different nuances. Various shades of green, yellow ocher, grey, charcoal and so much more ..... a show!

 We are in Val D' Orcia near Pienza, the typical Renaissance city, a UNESCO world heritage site. Its surroundings are Montepulciano and Montalcino, two cities and lands of great wines; Bagno Vignoni, Bagni San Filippo and San Casciano dei Bagni, are places with thermal spring and of great interest. Arezzo, Siena and Perugia are close together so you can make a vacation complete with art, culture, nature, food and wine all at your fingertips.

Poggio ai Gelsi is comprised of three buildings: the main house in stone, closed at the moment, and two lodges that offer accommodation in three housing units. The buildings have been restored taking care of every detail while maintaining the traditional Tuscan features: exposed beams and terracotta floors. The furniture consists of a few pieces of antique and modern furniture. 

The large outdoor area offers several quiet corners where everyone can find their favourite place to relax and enjoy the nature...a beautiful paved square garden with fruit trees, cypresses and olive trees and the beautiful infinity pool that is located on the centre of a natural terrace overlooking the valley.

INTERIOR



In the small independent house is located the apartment Gelso.

The entrance to the apartment Gelso is achieved through a covered porch (25qm) with beams and tiled floor. The patio has a beautiful view over the pool and it's equipped with table, chairs and a fireplace to use as a barbecue: this is the ideal place to spend unforgettable summer meals outdoors with family or friends.

The entrance is into a bright living room with partially stoned walls, doors overlooking the garden and a double sofa bed. On one side of the hall there is a bathroom with shower. The other side of the room leads to the kitchen which has a dining table for 6 people and a direct access to the outside through a door window. The kitchen leads to a small hallway from where you reach a small bathroom with shower and a double bedroom with direct access to outer space.



On the left side of the cottage centrally located is the apartment Ulivo.

With a few steps you access to the living/dining area with sofa, kitchenette, dining table and fireplace glass. A small hallway leads to the bathroom with shower and a large bedroom with Art Nouveau furnishing.



On the right side of the cottage centrally located is the apartment Melograno.

With a few steps you reach the living room with kitchenette, dining table and sofa with fireplace. A small hallway with closet leads to the bathroom and to a double bedroom with satellite-TV.



OUTDOOR


The large outdoor area is partially enclosed by the access. In front of the entrance gate there is a parking area. The garden extends around the houses; one of the houses is a large attractive square with terracotta floors and a fountain surrounded by walls made of local stone.
The surrounding nature invites you to go for walks, mountain biking or horseback riding.

SWIMMING POOL



The infinity pool with mosaic from a Roman staircase and entrance is in front of the houses on a natural terrace which overlooks the valley. The pool measures 7 x 14.3 meters and the depth ranges from 1.20 to 1.50 m. The pool is opened from the last Saturday of April to the first Saturday of October. The use of the swimming pool is at your own risk.
