Podere Scopeto (farmhouse)

Home description

Casa Vacanze Scopeto is a lovely hamlet at the slopes of the "Montagnola Senese", a hilly territory covered with chestnut and oak trees. Marbles of rare beauty were extracted here as from medieval times and were used to embellish some of the most important Italian monuments. Churches and medieval castles are spread around in the surrounding hills. A particular mention goes to the Abbey of San Galgano, an astonishing roofless church where one can visit the world-known sword in the rock.

The hamlet has been entirely renovated and transformed into a cosy, well-kept country residence in the green hills of Tuscany, full of woods. The restoration of the structure was carried out with great care and particular attention was given to every last detail. The complex is made up of the main body of the building , a small outbuidling 20 m away and an independent house, located approx. 80 m down from the complex.

The property is surrounded by 10 hectares of land with large, equipped outdoor areas. Above the complex and in a dominating position you will find a pretty swimming pool (8x16). Around the swimming pool is a tiled sun terrace and 2 showers. Peaceful position. Shared: 3 barbecues and laundry room (washing machine, sink, ironing equipment). Parking. Comfortable furniture. Central heating.
