Property Summary
Nestled on a hill 350 metres above sea level in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, Villa Amandula is an exceptional vacation rental that seamlessly blends contemporary design with the rich heritage of the surrounding landscape. The name Amandula derives from the ancient local jargon "màndula", meaning almond, a reference to the precious fruit that once dominated this territory and formed a cornerstone of the traditional peasant diet. Built in 2019 according to zero-impact construction principles, the villa celebrates local craftsmanship through the use of handmade terracotta, chestnut beams, and oak parquet, all set within modern, linear, and entirely white interiors where deliberately oversized windows allow natural light to flood every room, transforming it into a living element of the décor. Located within a working farm dedicated to the production of extra virgin olive oil, Amandula enjoys a private and tranquil position overlooking a breathtaking rural landscape of olive groves, vineyards, and dense woodland, with the silhouette of Monte Amiata, an ancient extinct volcano, defining the horizon between the provinces of Grosseto and Siena. The property offers complimentary Wi-Fi connectivity throughout, a generous private yard extending across 3,000 square metres of landscaped garden, a stunning outdoor swimming pool, and a dedicated uncovered parking area with space for 3 cars, all contributing to an experience of refined comfort and absolute serenity in one of Italy's most evocative natural settings.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Villa Amandula are as thoughtfully designed as the interiors, offering a seamless connection between the built environment and the surrounding Tuscan countryside. The property sits within a sloping 2-hectare park planted with olive trees, oaks, almond trees, and wooded areas, enclosed by large-mesh pasture netting intended primarily to ensure privacy and limit access by unauthorised individuals. The 3,000 square metres of garden immediately surrounding the villa are laid to lawn and dotted with olive trees, lavender, and rosemary, creating a fragrant and visually harmonious setting throughout the seasons. A pergola at the entrance provides a shaded and elegantly equipped outdoor dining area, while a brick barbecue with a convenient integrated sink offers the perfect setting for al fresco cooking. A panoramic, north-facing portico furnished with armchairs and a sofa invites relaxation at any hour of the day, framing views across the valley towards Monte Amiata. The uncovered parking area, accommodating up to 3 vehicles, is located at the end of a gravel driveway, just 5 metres from the main entrance door beneath the pergola. The rectangular swimming pool, non-heated and fenced for safety, occupies a lower terrace approximately 30 metres from the villa and is accessible from the porch and the parking area by crossing the garden and descending stone slabs. Measuring 12 x 5 metres with a constant depth of 1.40 metres, the pool is finished in sand-coloured PVC with a porous terracotta border and is equipped with an angular Roman staircase, underwater illumination, and a solar shower. The surrounding sunbathing area, paved in terracotta and framed by a border of lawn and olive trees, is furnished with sunbeds, umbrellas, and tables. The pool is sanitised with chlorine and remains open from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday in October, offering an unobstructed view of the Amiata profiles and the suggestive sunsets that unfold across the horizon.

Villa Amandula is distributed across 2 levels connected by an internal staircase crafted in terracotta and masonry, and comfortably accommodates up to 6 guests across 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. On the ground floor, the entrance opens from the pergola into a large and luminous open-plan living space that brings together the living area, furnished with a smart TV and overlooking both the swimming pool and the Castello di Velona, the dining area, and a contemporary linear kitchen with direct access to the porch. The ground floor also features a double bedroom with a private exit to the garden and an adjacent bathroom with shower, both of which are fully certified to accommodate guests with disabilities.

One of these terraces overlooks the swimming pool, the olive grove, and the Val d'Orcia, while the other offers views over the charming village of Seggiano. One of the first-floor bedrooms features a wooden mezzanine level used as a dedicated relaxation area, adding an additional dimension of comfort and character to the accommodation.
