Capriolo 3 • Tuscany 3 Bedroom

Tuscany, Italy
size: 160m2 or 1722 Sq Ft.
sleeps: up to 6
baths: 3
 
This 160m2 former hay barn has been transformed into a lovely and luxurious 3 bedroom villa. It is located next door to the main Capriolo farmhouse, but can be rented alone as an independent holiday accommodation.

The villa includes three large bedrooms (all with double beds that can be split to make two twins), each with its en suite bathroom (2 with showers, one with sit-down tub and handheld shower). All of the rooms have ceiling fans, and all of the windows and doors are double-glazed and equipped with screens.

The spacious designer kitchen has been made-to-order and includes a built-in dishwasher, professional stovetop, oven and double stainless steel sink. All the cabinets are custom made; pink travertine tops cover all work surfaces in the kitchen. A washing machine is located in a closet between the kitchen and downstairs bedroom (sorry, no dryer – it’s not necessary with the Tuscan sun!). The dining area and spacious living room connect to the kitchen through a pass-through opening. You will find Cable TV and internet access (sorry, high speed internet has not yet reached Capriolo) in the living room for your convenience. Step out of the living room and into the Italian countryside to find an enclosed private patio for outdoor dining (this patio is not visible from the Main house next door).

The large pool (5 x 14.5 meters), shared with the farmhouse villa next door, is dramatically set against the backdrop of forest and distant hills among lavender, rosemary, rose bushes and other local Tuscan flora. There is ample pool furniture (seating and umbrellas) provided, along with covered outdoor dining tables, enabling one to spend leisurely moments lounging in comfort.


The charming and accommodating bi-lingual owners are American expats who have been living full time in Italy for the past 20 years (also the owners of il Poggio: http://www.haveninparis.com/rental/poggio.php). They live close by on a separate estate that has been in their family since 1743, which includes a winery and olive tree holdings. They make wonderful Tuscan Extra Virgin Olive oil and various red Tuscan wines. They will happily organize many extra luxury services: catering, market shopping, cooking lessons, tours and hikes, bike rentals, hot air ballooning, wine tasting and tours of the winery, olive picking, additional cleaning and more, allowing you to have a truly relaxing Tuscan vacation rental experience. Additional maid service is available upon request.

Please note: There are numerous staircases throughout the villa, making it inappropriate for anyone with difficulties walking or climbing.
