Description

Imagine the perfect Chianti villa – a secluded house with private pool and fabulous 180-degree views starring a hilltop town. That’s just what you’ll experience at Casa Perano.



Set down a lane a few meters away from the "Eroica" road and between the wine towns of Radda and Gaiole, this three-bedroom villa is bound to take your breath away at first sight for the views from its huge south-facing terrace. And that hilltop village just over the top of your specs? It's San Donato in Perano, one of the most Instagrammable visions on offer in Chianti – and you don’t have to move a muscle to enjoy the view.

You will, of course, want to explore further afield. There’s good cycling and walking and you can take your pick of the Classico wineries that lie in every direction, including Frescobaldi’s Tenuta Perano estate, just down the road. The winery has a restaurant with a lovely terrace, as do many of the other local vineyards. For an exciting day trip, take your pick from Siena or Florence, you’re halfway between the two.



This pretty cottage, built from local stone, sleeps six in three bedrooms – it's unusual for a moderate-sized house to command such a big horizon so snap it up quickly. Step inside to find a comfortable sitting room and, through an archway, the kitchen-diner. Across the hall is one of the bedrooms and stairs lead up and down to the other two, all ensuite.



Typical Tuscan features include terracotta tiles on the floors and beamed ceilings, while soft pastels, pretty murals and furnishings garlanded with floral displays give a light and sunny modern aspect. But you’re likely to spend most of your time on the covered terrace or in the pool in the garden, for it’s all about the views at Casa Perano.
