Set in a wonderful location nestling in the Tuscan hillside, surrounded by olive groves and wonderful views. Villa Oliveta is only 4km from Gaiole in Chianti and ideally situated for day trips to Florence, Pisa, Bologna and Rome. Oliveta is attached to a neighbouring property and part of a traditional Italian cluster of dwellings, however the pool and gardens are private to you.
The pool is situated at the rear of the property surrounded by olive trees, Mediterranean shrubs and hedging. The pool has a paved surround where there are plenty of tables, umbrellas and sun loungers to relax in. From poolside you have a fantastic view of the rolling wooded hillsides all around.
The front door opens into a large hallway from which all the ground floor rooms lead off. Immediately on the left is the ground floor bedroom which has a double bed, wardrobe and chest of drawers and views over the front garden. The ensuite bathroom with shower is in the far right hand corner.
Directly ahead as you enter the house is the lounge/kitchen/diner which has an open fireplace, comfortable sofa and a wooden dining table with six chairs. Along one wall are fitted units with a built in oven with gas hobs, fridge, washing machine, microwave oven and a TV with some satellite channels.
A set of double doors open onto the rear garden area. In the far left hand corner of the kitchen a flight of stairs take you up to the first floor.
The first floor landing area has doors to both the remaining two bedrooms, and a bathroom with shower, basin and WC. The first bedroom has two large windows which allow light to flood the room. This room has matching twin beds which can be pushed together to make a double bed if required. There is also a day bed which can be used as an extra bed or a sofa, as needed and a large wooden wardrobe and chest of drawers.
The second bedroom is the master bedroom which has the traditional Tuscan terracotta tiled floor with tiled and beamed ceiling. There is a wooden double bed with matching wardrobe and chest of drawers. There is also a writing desk and chair as well as an armchair. The ensuite bathroom has a shower, basin and WC.
Outside, split level stairs from the kitchen area take you down into the garden. The garden areas are mainly laid to lawn with mature trees and shrubs, with large brightly planted terracotta pots dotted throughout. There is also a barbeque and a covered gazebo with dining table and chairs, which is ideal for dining ‘al fresco’ or sitting with a glass of wine watching the stars.
