Umberto Hills

Umberto Hills: Tuscany

Set close to the Chianti town of Tavernuzze and with postcard-perfect Florence just a short drive away, the location of this traditional villa is spot on. Perfect for a multi-generational family getaway, along with the main house, there is an annexe en-suite bedroom – perfect for guests looking for extra privacy. It’s worth noting that the homeowner and their dog live on the wider grounds, and the family may occasionally use the pool. But those terraces with a pizza oven and built-in barbecue are all yours for alfresco evening meals. Time it right, and you’ll be rewarded with magnificent sunsets over the surrounding vineyards and cypress trees.

Home truths:
*There is ample private parking outside the villa.
*Some of the double bedrooms can be converted into twin beds if you prefer. The annexe double bedroom also has a sofa bed which converts into a single bed should a twin room be required.
*There are stairs within the home and steps leading down to the gardens and pool, which may not be suitable for guests with restricted mobility.
*There are writing desks in some of the bedrooms for remote working or studying.
*The swimming pool is for seasonal use from May to October.
*The owner has a friendly dog that lives on-site, and the owner and their family may occasionally use the pool.
*There's a restaurant within walking distance for an easy bite to eat.
