Villa Altho, Gaiole in Chianti - Siena and Chianti

Nestled in an idyllic hamlet, Villa Altho is a holiday home offering the perfect setting for relaxing holidays in Tuscany. Divided into two independent apartments, the villa is perfect for friends travelling together who also value their own space and privacy. Its hillside setting offers breathtaking views of the surrounding fields, forests, and rolling Chianti hills, best enjoyed from the spacious balcony terraces and the unique heatable infinity pool set beneath a roof, perfect for all-weather  enjoyment.

Just 200 meters from the house, there is an excellent local restaurant, while Gaiole, with its restaurants, small shops, and a COOP supermarket, is quickly reachable by car. The villa is located in the heart of the Chianti region, providing easy access to the famous wineries and castles of the area. Siena, San Gimignano, and Florence are also conveniently accessible for day trips.

The stone-built villa is set on the edge of the medieval hamlet of Barbischio and blends in beautifully with its natural environment. The outdoor space features two balconies and a large terrace which is perfect for dining al fresco and enjoying the magnificent views, enhanced by terracotta pots brimming with vibrant Mediterranean plants.

Villa Altho beautifully combines modern comforts with classic Tuscan style. Exposed wooden beam ceilings, natural stone elements, and traditional architectural features are paired with sleek, contemporary furnishings and large-scale artworks. Each of the two apartments has its own entrance, offering plenty of space for both shared and individual holiday moments.

Villa Altho’s panoramic setting creates a unique atmosphere, with the landscape always present from peaceful sunrises to evenings with a glass of wine at sunset.
