Tuscany unveils itself in sunlight over vineyards, breezes across cypress branches, and clouds skirting mountains—all of it in view from the terrace of this villa with traditional charm and sustainable bona fides. Its brick floors and beamed ceilings may look old-fashioned, but this house is powered by solar panels. It’s just outside Arezzo, a smaller city with plenty of Renaissance frescoes. 

Your holiday at this vacation rental includes daily breakfast as well as housekeeping and concierge service. Once you’ve finished your morning espresso, bring a book out to a lounger in the garden or on the terrace, make a splash in the infinity pool, or start a family game on a lawn bordered by rows of Merlot grapes. In the evenings, flip on the satellite TV or catch up via Wi-Fi. 

Fling open the arched doors to let the breezes waft through rooms inspired by centuries of Italy’s country estates. Brick floors and whitewashed beamed ceilings run throughout the living room, dining room, and fully equipped kitchen. A pair of sofas, dining chairs for 10, and a breakfast table in the kitchen invite you to pause for a moment or two. 

There are 3 bedrooms in the main house of this luxury property and 1 in the pool house; all 4 have king beds and private ensuite bathrooms. As the pool-house bedroom has its own lounge area and opens to the pool terrace, it’s ideal for in-laws seeking quiet or couples hoping to relive their honeymoon in peace. 

A stay at this villa brings you off the beaten path in Tuscany. It’s a short drive to the well-preserved town of Loro Ciuffenna, whose historic center is home to one of the oldest working water mills in the region and whose outskirts are home to the Balze, the rock formation believed to be the backdrop to the Mona Lisa. It’s also close enough to Arezzo, Cortona, Siena, and Florence for a day trip.
