Description
Property Summary
Nestled in the serene Tuscan countryside just 8 km from the historic city of Pistoia, Italy, Villa Desiderio offers an exceptional vacation rental experience for those seeking tranquility, elegance, and the authentic beauty of the Italian landscape. Surrounded by silvery expanses of olive groves and bathed in sunlight throughout the day, this charming two-floor villa combines simple yet refined furnishings with traditional Tuscan character, creating an atmosphere of understated luxury and warmth. The property features generous outdoor spaces, including a well-maintained yard adorned with citrus plants, medicinal herbs, and colourful flowers, making it an ideal retreat for guests who appreciate nature and open-air living. Reliable Internet WiFi keeps you connected throughout your stay, while private parking is available on the property for your convenience. It is worth noting that Villa Desiderio shares a boundary at the rear with the owners' private residence, meaning that assistance from the owners themselves is available should the need arise during your stay.
Outdoors
The outdoor areas of Villa Desiderio are among its most captivating features, offering a seamless blend of natural beauty and thoughtfully designed leisure spaces. In the panoramic area in front of the property, a well-kept lawn is beautifully embellished with citrus plants and a variety of medicinal herbs, all framed by colourful flowers that enhance the villa's picturesque setting. Beyond the fenced perimeter, expansive olive groves surround the estate, from which the owners produce an organic extra virgin olive oil available for tasting upon request. Please be aware that photographs of the garden were taken in spring, and therefore the appearance of the flowers and lawn may vary depending on the season of your arrival.
A large shaded portico connects the interior living spaces to an outdoor dining and living area, offering a panoramic view of the surrounding landscape and providing the perfect setting for al fresco meals and relaxed evenings in the open air.
From the garden, a flight of stairs adjacent to the entrance gate leads down to the swimming pool, which is non-heated and dramatically positioned to overlook the city, offering a truly unique and memorable view. The pool is elliptical in shape, measuring 5x8 m with a depth of 1.20 m, and features an internal PVC coating in a vivid blue tone that contrasts beautifully with the light wood-coloured stoneware of the large surrounding solarium. Both the pool interior and the sunbathing area are equipped with lighting, allowing for enjoyable evenings outdoors. Comfortable sun loungers and deck chairs are arranged in the shade of a large sail, creating a relaxing atmosphere throughout the day. Access to the water is facilitated by a convenient metal ladder, and water purification is managed through a chlorine-based system. The pool area is enclosed by a laurel hedge and accessed through a dedicated gate, located approximately 40 m from the main building. The swimming pool is open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October.
Unit Layout
Villa Desiderio is thoughtfully arranged across 2 floors connected by an internal staircase, and is designed to comfortably accommodate up to 9 guests across 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. On the ground floor, a large and brightly lit open-plan room serves as the heart of the villa, encompassing a dining area, a sitting area with a dedicated TV corner, and a relaxation zone that can also be configured as a work station if required. From the relaxation area, the space flows naturally into a fully equipped kitchen. Also on the ground floor is a double bedroom complete with an en suite bathroom featuring a shower. Large French windows open directly onto the outdoor dining and living area beneath the shaded portico, creating a fluid connection between the interior and exterior spaces.
A staircase from the ground floor leads up to the first floor, where 4 additional bedrooms enjoy panoramic views over the surrounding Tuscan landscape. Of these, 3 are double bedrooms: 2 are equipped with their own en suite bathrooms, and 1 shares an adjacent bathroom with the remaining single bedroom. Air conditioning is available in 2 of the double bedrooms on this floor.
