Overview
Nestled in the serene expanse of the Tuscan countryside, a short distance from the iconic city of Florence stands the exquisite Villa Vintinto. This captivating retreat offers an unparalleled escape into the heart of one of Italy's most enchanting regions. The villa, available for rent in two configurations, presents itself as a 7-bedroom haven when choosing the main villa alone or expands into a grand 10-bedroom sanctuary with the annexe included.
The property's rustic charm seamlessly harmonises with modern comforts, creating an inviting and sophisticated ambience. The interiors, adorned with tasteful furnishings, reflect the elegance of Tuscan aesthetics while embracing contemporary amenities for an effortless stay. The main villa offers seven bedrooms, seven bathrooms, a fully-equipped kitchen, dining area, study and living area. The annexe supplements the main villa with three additional bedrooms, providing flexibility for larger gatherings.
The expansive terrace and meticulously maintained lush lawn command a serene view of the Tuscan scenery. An inviting gazebo is thoughtfully positioned, ideal for al-fresco dining, socialising, or unwinding beneath its cooling shelter. Encircled by centuries-old trees, the private pool is a focal point, complemented by a sun deck adorned with lavish recliners for sunbathing, creating an ideal haven for relaxation.
Situated less than an hour away by car from the stunning city of Florence, this villa offers the perfect balance between proximity to urban vibrancy and the serenity of rural life. Immerse yourself in local culture or unwind in the embrace of the panoramic vistas of rolling hills and vineyards. With Florence, a stone's throw away, embrace the villa's strategic location to venture into renowned art museums, awe-inspiring cathedrals, and the vibrant spirit of the city's piazzas.
Explore the rich tapestry of the local region surrounding the property, where cultural gems and natural wonders await your discovery.

Greve in Chianti, renowned for its vibrant market square, is approximately a 45-minute from the villa.
Engage in wine tastings at family-owned wineries in Montepulciano or Castellina in Chianti, located about 1 hour away, gaining insights into the art of winemaking that has flourished for generations.
