Immersed in glorious Tuscan landscapes, set in a vast 300-hectare estate of woodland and rolling fields, I Tebaldi is a magnificent villa just half an hour from the artistic city of Florence, very close to The Mall and other designer outlets selling luxury brands.
Originally the site of a 16th century historic home, the current owners have spent many recent years reconstructing and restoring I Tebaldi to its former glory. Furnished in a classic yet refined style, great attention to detail has been paid to the atmosphere of this relaxing home where the views of the surrounding scenery are wonderful. Unwind under the characterful arches in the living space, dine looking out to captivating valley vistas and prepare feasts in the brilliantly equipped kitchen, also ideal for cookery classes or a private chef. Upstairs, five air-conditioned bedrooms feature mini-bars, safes and satellite TV as well as elegant en suite shower rooms.
Just adjacent to the villa, the barn has also been attractively restored with oak parquet flooring and wood beams painted white to exude a fresh yet characterful ambience. Over two floors, three further en suite bedrooms, all with air-conditioning, allow up to 16 guests to stay across this grand abode.
Enjoy yet more remarkable landscapes from the upper garden terrace, perfect for al-fresco dining or just admiring the Tuscan views whilst pretty steps lead down to the enticing salt-water swimming pool which can be heated on request. Look out towards the olive trees scattered on the lawns as you relax on the sun-loungers whilst more energetic guests can make the most of the gym equipment in the nearby annexe. A 4-person sauna adds an extra touch of luxury to complete this amazing home.
Set out for walks across vast grounds, look out for deer roaming free, wander through the oak forests and be mesmerised by the extraordinary scenery. The estate also includes Casa Marlena and Villino Lepre - each villa is privately positioned and a short drive from each other, perhaps ideal for families or friends wanting to travel together yet retain their own privacy.
A short drive brings you to a small supermarket and local restaurants as well as the famous designer outlet malls selling Gucci, D&G, Burberry and other high-end names. The mighty city of Florence itself is just half an hour by car whilst the artistic treasures of Arezzo are also waiting to be discovered within an hour.
Spend time exploring the vineyards of Chianti, head a little further to sample Vino Nobile in Montepulciano or come across idyllic hilltop villages and towns including well-known places such as San Gimignano, Empoli and of course Siena. In the heart of the Tuscan countryside, this really is a picture-perfect setting for getting to know this enchanting and world-famous part of Italy.

The villa is phenomenal
The villa is phenomenal. Each of the bedrooms (all with en-suite bathrooms) are charming, the living quarters were more than ample for our large family, the pool was impeccable, and our host Elena went above and beyond to meet our every need. We could not have asked for a more perfect vacation! Thank you so much.

Stunning views
Pictures don’t capture how beautiful the property and home are in person. Stunning 360 degree views. The villa was immaculate and extremely well maintained. The kitchen had great amenities - we got lots of use from the coffee machine, ice maker, and panini toaster oven. Plenty of supplies to cook meals for our large group. A/C in all bedrooms and main dining area. Plenty of space for our family of 14 - 7 adults and 7 kids. Wifi was decent. Washer/ dryer on site. The villa was a 10-15 minute drive from the local train station with free parking - very easy to take day trips to Florence, Venice, and Rome. Elena was friendly, responsive, and helpful - she provided startup groceries and helped us arrange a photography session for our family of 14. We didn’t want to leave and will definitely be back!! An unforgettable vacation.
