Property Summary
Nestled atop a sun-drenched hill in the heart of Tuscany, Monterzi is a beautifully restored farmhouse that offers an extraordinary vacation rental experience in one of Italy's most evocative landscapes. Located within easy reach of the charming medieval borgo of Trequanda and surrounded by the rolling vineyards and olive groves that define the Sienese countryside, this property was born from the careful and respectful renovation of an ancient ruin, once used as stables.
