Villa for 12 with A/C, wifi and a large pool in the Chianti

Dimora is a large Tuscan villa for 12, with a private pool and air-conditioning, set on a vineyard and wine estate, and is ideal for family reunions.

When the owner of Dimora set out to modernize this house on an organic 300-hectare farm in the woodlands and olive groves of the Chianti, he decided to respect the Nature surrounding his doorstep, and by collecting both sun and rain now manages to conserve energy with no sacrifice to comfort.

In this sprawling ground-level house, whose every room opens onto the outside, you will never doubt that you are in the heart of Tuscany. Terracotta bricks and chestnut ceiling beams mix well with the stylish colors and attractive fabrics of modern Italy and from every window, there is the classic panorama of an ancient countryside.

Every room opens onto the gardens and grounds, making for an airy and liveable home with a relaxed holiday atmosphere. The large pool has a smaller children's pool attached and plenty of shaded areas to relax in, and the house is set amongst olives and vineyards in a perfect Tuscan landscape. A/C and heating are extra.

The closest town is Barberino Val d'Elsa, with restaurants, shops and the owner's excellent wine cellar. There is a restaurant within walking distance, around a mile away.
