In the heart of Tuscany situated between Siena and Florence sits the charming and spacious Chiara in Chianti. Perched atop its own hillside, the private estate boasts stunning views of the surrounding gardens and olive groves. Chiara is an ideal choice for discerning travellers looking to experience the beautiful region in total seclusion whilst also remaining close to historic towns and spectacular vineyards.
The sprawling villa stretches across two floors, featuring two buildings - the main villa and an annexe nearby. Just steps from one another, they share the lovely gardens, views and outdoor features. Highlights of the interiors include an exquisite formal dining room with high, soaring ceilings that flows into the open plan and classically styled living space. There are three separate kitchens with access to the gardens and a grand entrance hall fit with a piano that exudes old-world charm. Upstairs features an additional shared sitting room with a striking fireplace; the lower floor is home to the spa with a lavish hot tub, massage bed and well-appointed home gym for those looking to stay in shape during the stay.
While away the sun-soaked afternoons by the oval infinity pool. With a waterfall feature, several lounge and seating areas that curve around the water and a whirlpool tub, it is one of the focal points of the home. The stone terrace is fitted with al fresco dining spots to feast on the very best Tuscan cuisine and hammocks to sway in afterwards. Eight beautiful ensuite bedrooms feature within the main villa - seven offer queen-sized beds and one includes a room with two single beds which is a good option for children during the stay. The annexe features a queen-sized bedroom and a final bedroom with two single beds. Due to its vast size and flexible bedroom configuration, the home is well suited to large families or groups of friends.
