Casa Reasco 10, Torniella - Roccastrada - Grosseto

If you enjoy a break in the countryside but like to feel connected too, this three-storey town house could be just what you’re looking for. Set on the main square in the pretty medieval village of Toriella, Casa Reasco will put you at the heart of local life, just a few strides away from a shop, restaurant and bar, where you can pull up a chair with a cappuccino or a glass of wine and watch the world go by. And when you fancy picking up the pace, you’ll be within easy reach of the bustling streets of Siena, Colle di Val d’Elsa and Grosseto.

A rustic charmer, this semi-detached villa tips its hat at country cottage style and oozes history, from its exposed stone walls to its herringbone terracotta tiled floors. The two kitchen-diners offer room for a party of 10 to play with, while bedrooms are neatly staggered across the floors for a little added privacy. Although you’re located at the centre of a village, there’s a sizeable back garden with a small yet perfect pool for cooling off in the heat of the day.

  Our Thoughts 
Do the double at Casa Reasco. This town house, standing proud on the village square, will allow you to embrace local life and also enjoy some peace and quiet in the bucolic setting of the pretty back garden. We love the thatch-topped pergola by the pool, with its large table just waiting to groan under the weight of a hearty spread of Tuscany food. Meanwhile, the house provides a cool bolthole when the sun is high.

Notes
Five bedrooms. Five bathrooms, two en-suite. Heating costs extra if used. The villa contains plenty of chairs, which guests can gather together, but there is only one sofa. The property is unsuitable for guests with limited mobility because of the internal stairs. The garden is reached via a flight of external steps from the first floor – both the pool and garden can be overlooked by neighbouring houses. The owner lives two doors along from the villa.
Parking - On street parking.

Pool   
There is a small, raised prefabricated pool in the back garden. The surrounding decking is set with chairs, tables and sunloungers, and there is a furnished wooden gazebo and barbecue nearby. The water is accessed via ladder steps. Pool size: 7m x 4m, 1.2m deep. Open May through September, weather permitting.
