Description
Magnificently situated on a hill in the stunning Valle d’Ombrone, Poggio al Leccio enjoys spectacular views over the Monte Amiata, the mountain sacred to the ancient Etruscans. This beautiful property traces its origins back to at least the seventeenth century and is located almost precisely half-way between Siena and Grosseto in the heart of the Tuscan Maremma. Downstairs there are spacious rooms furnished in classical Italian style with some wooden pieces. offset perfectly by whitewashed walls to give a classical, cool and uncluttered feel to the house. The bedrooms are generously proportioned and very comfortable, three of which benefit from an en suite bathroom. There is a huge kitchen which is well equipped and has a large open hearth. Outside, there are 5 acres of manicured lawns, olive groves, shady woodland and a wisteria-draped pergola to explore. The private pool also has shady areas around it, as well as sun loungers. There is a wood-fired pizza oven and plenty of options for al fresco eating, giving every opportunity to capitalise on the breath-taking views. The property is approximately 25 minutes from the sandy beaches of the family friendly resort of Castiglione della Pescaia.
