The property is located in the heart of the town’s historic centre, yet in a quiet and very secluded position. It can be accessed either from ground level or via a charming stone staircase leading to the first floor, where a romantic loggia opens onto a lovely view over the village lanes and the surrounding countryside. On the ground floor there is a spacious, functional kitchen with a large dining table, a bathroom and a pantry; the space beneath the external staircase has been cleverly used as a wood storage area, ideal for the two fireplaces in the house. A wooden staircase leads upstairs, where the living room is arranged on two levels: one in front of the fireplace with direct access to the loggia, the other with a window overlooking the alley, ensuring guests proper privacy. The apartment is completed by two bedrooms on the upper floor and a second bathroom with a window.
The picturesque historic centre of San Quirico d’Orcia lies in the heart of the natural park and UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Val d’Orcia. The town, known for the beautiful Italian-style garden of the Horti Leonini, is a typical Tuscan medieval village that has splendidly preserved the charm of its entire history. It is located on the road from the art city of Montepulciano, passing through Pienza and continuing toward Siena, just a few km from the vineyards of Montalcino, where the famous Brunello is produced. The area, in addition to typical food-and-wine itineraries, is rich in spa towns, including Bagno Vignoni with its fascinating large pool of hot water of Roman origin. In town you will find all main services: banks, supermarkets, bars, wine shops and restaurants. It is easily reached via the Autostrada del Sole (A1); the town is about 90 minutes from Florence and a 2-hour drive from Rome.
