Borgo Frosini 6, Pratantico - Arezzo

Borgo Frosini is a wonderful two storey Tuscan villa split into two separate apartments on the ground floor with a further separate room. The property boasts traditional Tuscan ceilings and floors throughout. There is easy access to Siena,  Florence and Pisa. The town of Arezzo is only 3km away.

Situated in the large fenced garden is the sparkling well maintained private swimming pool. There are plenty of sun loungers and parasols around the pool side. At one end of the swimming pool is a pool house with open air shower. Beyond the fenced garden are lovely views of the countryside and distant mountains.

At the front entrance of the villa is a spacious furnished loggia with two iron tables and chairs for twelve people, perfect for dining al-fresco. Next to the external stairs on the left side of the building is a small furnished terrace. A second furnished loggia is attached to the side of the pool house. There is also a brick built barbecue and pizza oven near the pool.

Entry into the villa is directly into a very spacious lounge, diner and kitchen. Light floods in from the impressive arched double doors  at the furthest end of the room. The left wall is fully occupied by the long kitchen unit which consists of an oven, gas hobs, microwave, dishwasher and fridge with separate freezer compartment. In the centre is a dining table with eight chairs. At the back of the room is a sofa with two matching armchairs and a wall mounted television with satellite.

The first door on the left in the lounge opens onto a small set of steps which lead down to a cosy  double room. It is furnished with a wrought iron double bed, double wardrobe and two wooden chairs. This room also benefits from an en-suite bathroom with shower.

The second door on the left of the lounge leads down to a small hallway. Left of the hallway is a compact bathroom with shower. Directly ahead is another double bedroom. The room consists of an ornate iron double bed, mirrored wardrobe and two wooden chairs. A set of French doors give access to the rear of the property.

Access to the separate bedroom is via an iron gate on the right of the building. Two large wooden double doors open into an internal courtyard which used to house the grape press. Some of the original tools used are on display. A door to the right opens into a twin room with iron beds, two chairs and a chest of drawers with a lovely floral design. There is also an en-suite bathroom with shower.

2 double rooms, 1 with en-suite bathroom
1 twin room with en-suite bathroom

Twin beds cannot be converted into doubles and vice versa.

The owner and another couple also live onsite within the hamlet of Borgo Frosini, but not in the same building as the guests. The owners’ relatives (an elderly couple and their adult daughter) live on the first floor above the guests’ quarters. They have their own separate entrance. Their windows overlook the garden and pool area, but they are very respectful to the guests’ privacy. The swimming pool and gardens are private to the guests.

Some of the local restaurants can provide takeaways and catering services on request.

There is no air-conditioning in the separate twin bedroom.

Close to the villa in the spacious fenced garden is the sparkling private swimming pool. It measures 6x13 metres with a depth of 1.5 metres and is chlorine cleansed. There is a set of Roman steps at the shallow end and two metal ladders at the deep end. There are plenty of sun loungers and parasols around the poolside.

Nearby is a pool house with a furnished loggia attached to the side. In the pool house there is a small storage area, as well as a bathroom with shower and washing machine. Next to this is an open air shower. The pool is available from May to September, weather permitting.
