Property Summary
Nestled among the iconic green hills of Tuscany's Val d'Arno, Villa il Magnifico is a distinguished historic manor house that once served as a hunting lodge during the era of the Medici Seigniory. Located near the charming town of Reggello, in Italy, this exceptional vacation rental has been meticulously restored by its owners to preserve the authentic character of its storied past while offering every modern comfort. The renovation has been carried out with careful attention to period materials, including wooden ceilings with terracotta tiles, handmade Impruneta terracotta floors, a classic pietra serena fireplace, and a graceful round arch dividing the living room.

Description
Property Summary
Nestled on a hilltop at 522 metres above sea level in the heart of Chianti Classico, Villa La Poiana is a luxurious country home offering an exceptional vacation rental experience in Radda In Chianti, Italy. Positioned between Siena and Florence, this imposing exposed-stone residence commands breathtaking panoramic views over a landscape dotted with olive trees, vineyards, and dense woodland. The villa is set within an agritourism estate yet remains completely independent, separated from neighbouring properties by hedges, ensuring total privacy and tranquillity throughout your stay. The elegant interiors are characterised by fine furnishings and classic-style accessories, with great attention paid to every finishing detail. A generous yard surrounds the property, framing the house with olive trees, aromatic herb bushes, and colourful roses that blend seamlessly into the natural countryside setting. Wireless Internet Wi-Fi connectivity is available to keep you comfortably connected during your stay, while a large dedicated parking area is conveniently located close to the property, ensuring easy access for all guests.
Outdoors
The garden surrounding Villa La Poiana forms a spectacular natural frame, where olive trees, herb bushes, and varicoloured roses give way to vineyards, dense woods, and rolling hills. The woodland setting is home to wildlife including deer, porcupines, squirrels, and foxes, making the grounds a truly immersive natural retreat. In a splendid panoramic position in front of the entrance, relaxation areas have been thoughtfully arranged, including a sitting area furnished with sofas, armchairs, and small tables, as well as a shaded outdoor dining area complete with a barbecue, all sheltered beneath large umbrellas. French windows in every interior room open directly onto the garden, creating a seamless connection between the indoors and the surrounding landscape. Please note that the property photographs were taken in spring, so the appearance of the garden, including the flower blossoming and the colour of the grass, may vary depending on the time of your arrival.
Approximately 60 metres from the house, reached via a stone pathway winding through the olive trees, the rectangular swimming pool is set on a terraced lower level. The non-heated pool is lined in blue PVC with a stone edge and measures 6 x 13 metres, with a constant depth of 1.50 metres. Entry to the water is via 4 steps, and the pool is equipped with a chlorine purification system. The surrounding synthetic lawn is arranged with sunbeds and umbrellas, offering a peaceful sunbathing area with complete privacy. The pool is open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday of October.
