A secluded countryside retreat overlooking the rolling hills of Tuscany

Villa Luce Montaione is an authentic five-bedroom retreat set within the iconic rolling landscape of the Florence countryside. The architecture preserves the region’s original rural character while integrating modern luxuries, serving as a secluded sanctuary for families or groups seeking a quiet immersion in the Italian landscape.

Perched on a hill between the historic towns of Montaione and Castelfiorentino, the villa is surrounded by a patchwork of olive groves and golden fields. Its grounds feature a sprawling lawn that leads to a 16-metre swimming pool equipped with hydromassage jets. Bordering the pool is a paved brick terrace with sun loungers providing panoramic views across the valley. A large pergola adjacent to the main house creates the perfect al fresco hub, furnished with a long dining table and a barbecue, allowing outdoor cooking against the backdrop of the Tuscan hills.

The villa is a quintessential Tuscan farmhouse, constructed from honey coloured local stone and topped with terracotta roof tiles. Inside, it maintains a warm, rustic aesthetic with large tile floors and heavy timber-beamed ceilings. The decor perfectly combines traditional touches with modern luxuries, with a colour palette that perfectly complements the surrounding countryside.

Wide arches connect the ground-floor social spaces, including a professional-grade kitchen and a lounge centred on a substantial open fireplace, furnished with plenty of comfortable seating. A separate lower floor houses a second lounge area, a dedicated games room with a TV and pool table, and a cosy wine cellar, ideal for tastings.

The accommodation is concentrated on the first floor, providing space for up to 10 guests. The Master Suite is the most expansive, featuring a dedicated living area and an en-suite bathroom with a freestanding bathtub. Four additional guest rooms, named after iconic Tuscan cities, offer varied views of the pool or the countryside and are furnished with timber bedsteads and local textiles. Each bedroom features a modern en-suite shower room, blending the farmhouse’s historic charm with contemporary comfort.

The property’s blend of traditional design and modern amenities makes Villa Luce Montaione the perfect destination for a luxury rural getaway.

About the area

Luce Montaione enjoys a prime position within the Val d’Elsa, an area of Tuscany famed for its strategic proximity to the region’s most significant cultural treasures.

The villa is equidistant from the medieval hilltop town of Montaione and the bustling centre of Castelfiorentino, both just a short drive away. This location offers an authentic taste of local life, with weekly markets, traditional trattorias, and artisanal workshops providing a genuine connection to the Florentine countryside.

The estate’s central location makes it an excellent base for exploring Tuscany’s cultural sites, including the iconic medieval towers of San Gimignano, the ancient Etruscan walls of Volterra, and the renowned, shell-shaped Piazza del Campo in Siena.
