Its name, like the bird from which it comes (the Phoenix), summarises the symbol of rebirth; and this comparison is more than appropriate considering the origins of Casa la Fenice which, from a simple country farmhouse, has been transformed, reborn, into a splendid Tuscan residence, after having undergone an important renovation which the owner was particularly keen to do, and which bears witness to the sentimental bond with these walls. We are in a lesser-known, but extraordinarily beautiful, corner of Tuscany, where the contrast, between the verdant hills and nature reserves of Berignone and Monterufoli-Caselli and the wonderful lunar landscapes endorsed by the Valle di Diavolo, stands out: with all its enchantment it offers surprising glimpses of nature manifesting itself with all its strength, giving almost an air of veiled mystery with the geothermal vents in the background. The original stone left exposed on the internal walls, the beams and terracotta of the ceilings, the bright air-conditioned rooms, each with private bathroom, and the panoramic terrace on the first floor are just some of the strong points of Casa La Fenice, where the cosy living area on the ground floor with the beautiful kitchen with marble worktop opens onto the outdoor living areas. All around, it is enveloped by a fenced garden enhanced by delightful dry-stone walls, fruit and olive trees, and embellished by numerous areas for breaks, relaxation and fun: the hydromassage tub, the barbecue area, the newly-constructed swimming pool and the numerous living and relaxation areas that will not betray the expectations of a dream stay. The house is located outside the town of Pomarance (about 1 km away), among the most representative borghi of the Alta Val di Cecina, with the Rocca Sillana dominating the natural beauty of this scenario from above. The location is perfect for enjoying privacy and tranquillity but also for exploring the splendid scenery of the Val di Cecina, a land of ancient borghi (Pomarance, Volterra, Montecatini Val di Cecina), numerous oases and nature reserves.
Interior:
Casa La Fenice has two floors connected by an internal staircase. A few steps lead to the main entrance on the ground floor. From here a staircase leads up to the first floor and a short ramp leads into the living area consisting of a spacious, well-equipped kitchen connected to the dining room; the rooms have direct access, through French windows, to the garden and are served by a bathroom with shower. Completing the ground floor are three double bedrooms with ensuite bathroom with shower, each with outside access and not communicating internally with each other. On the first floor is a double bedroom with a small balcony, a bathroom with a chromotherapy shower, a TV room with a double sofa bed and access to the terrace and, finally, the laundry room.
Park:
The park surrounding the house extends over a flat area of about 20,000 sq m and is completely fenced. The garden around the house has lawn areas delimited by dry stone walls and enlivened by bushes of aromatic herbs, fruit trees and a sea of olive trees. In this welcoming setting are a hydromassage tub (that can be available with extra cost and heated up to 27degreest) with adjacent guest bathroom, a lovely pool of water lilies, a wooden gazebo with table and relaxing sunbeds near the beautiful swimming pool, a barbecue area with wood oven and barbecue and a large portico with dining table in a convenient position at the exit of the kitchen. Past the entrance gate of the property is the parking area, close to the house entrances.
Swimming Pool:
The newly-built swimming pool lies in the garden in front of the living area exits just a few metres away and can be reached down a ramp with a few steps. The rectangular pool, measuring 5 x 10 m with a constant depth of 1.30 m, is lined in sand-coloured PVC and has chlorine purification, internal lights and Roman steps for access to the water. Surrounding the pool is the sunbathing area paved in stoneware with sunbeds, umbrellas and a cold-water shower. The pool is available from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday in October.

Once a stable and barn, this historic farmhouse has been thoughtfully restored following a non-invasive philosophy that honors the rigor and simplicity of its agricultural origins. The careful preservation of original architectural elements results in a skilful blend of tradition and modernity, where terracotta, stone, and rustic textures coexist harmoniously with contemporary furnishings in a well-balanced mix of styles. The property is enveloped in lush Tuscan vegetation, offering sweeping panoramic views of medieval borghi perched on hilltops, complete with towers, bastions, fortified walls, and battlements that glow golden at sunset, evoking an atmosphere of centuries past. The surrounding landscape unfolds across rolling hills planted with vineyards and olive groves, interspersed with rows of cypresses and woods of ilexes. Guests benefit from a generous yard of approximately 1,000 square metres, thoughtfully designed to open gradually toward the surrounding countryside. Complimentary Wi-Fi is available throughout the property, keeping you connected during your stay, while private parking ensures a convenient and stress-free arrival.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces at TERRIPI have been conceived as a natural extension of the interior, designed to invite guests to fully embrace the Tuscan landscape. The garden, spanning approximately 1,000 square metres, features local species including strawberry trees and rosemary, whose rich, intoxicating scent fills the air on warm summer afternoons. A large pergola covers the outdoor dining area in front of the kitchen, providing a shaded and atmospheric setting for alfresco meals. Carefully designed relaxation areas are positioned throughout the garden to make the most of sunny days in the open air.
At the centre of the garden, to the right of the kitchen area, lies the non-heated swimming pool, open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October. The pool features an irregular kidney shape of approximately 25 square metres with a depth of 1.50 metres. It is equipped with chlorine purification, a hydromassage system, and internal lighting, and its lining in hand-moulded marble stone allows it to blend seamlessly into the natural surroundings. The sunbathing area surrounding the pool is well equipped with sunbeds and umbrellas, offering the perfect setting to unwind while admiring the fiery Tuscan sunsets. Please note that photographs of the property were taken in spring, so the appearance of flowering plants and garden grass may differ at the time of your arrival.
