Villa la Maestà is an exceptional holiday home dating from the early
17th century, set within extensive, park like gardens. It is ideal for
a holiday with family or friends and provides a wonderful setting for
celebrating special occasions such as birthdays or anniversaries.
Behind the historic stone façade, guests will find a delightful
surprise, a fully equipped private cinema room with red cinema seats
and a bar, perfect for relaxed movie nights together.
The centre of Pergine Valdarno is just 500 m away and offers a bar/
gelateria and a small grocery shop as well as a restaurant. Pieve a
Presciano is only a short drive away and has further dining options,
including the highly regarded Osteria dei Vinaioli. Levane, with shops
and a supermarket, lies 9 km away. Arezzo can be reached in around 30
minutes, while Cortona, Lake Trasimeno, Siena and Montepulciano are all
excellent destinations for day trips.
Set in peaceful countryside, the villa is surrounded by five hectares
of private land. Mature gardens with olive groves, lawns and flowering
shrubs create a harmonious setting. A charming courtyard, accessed from
the living and dining area, offers a shaded dining space beneath
wisteria and is beautifully lit in the evening. The large swimming pool
on a lower garden terrace, together with the hot tub, creates an
inviting place to relax on warm days.
Inside, the two storey house has been carefully restored, preserving
original features such as impressive fireplaces, terracotta floors and
handmade tiles. Traditional furnishings with antique and vintage pieces
create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The bedrooms are individually
designed in calm colours, including one fully accessible bedroom with
en suite bathroom.
The friendly owner has written a charming book, A Life in Tuscany:
Memoirs of a Tuscan Family, in which she recounts her family‘s life
over three generations and shares family and regional recipes. She also
now offers cooking classes for guests in a separate building within the
grounds.
