ID-Casa Giacomei
Gorgeous Restored Village House with Garden, Above Ground Pool, and Gin and Tonic Terrace
Tucked away in the heart of Tuscany, this enchanting stone home feels like something out of a timeless Italian dream—where every detail tells a story and every corner invites you to slow down and savor life.
From the moment you arrive, there is a sense of quiet magic. The entrance opens into a warm and welcoming kitchen, where sunlight streams through twin windows and dances across the walls. A traditional fireplace anchors the space, perfect for long, leisurely meals and evenings filled with laughter, good wine, and the comforting crackle of firewood.
Just beyond, a hidden gem of a room offers endless possibilities—currently a laundry, yet easily transformed into an intimate snug, a reading retreat, or a peaceful corner to unwind. In the opposite direction, a cozy sitting room invites relaxation, with a cleverly tucked-away daytime bathroom behind a sliding door. A further room on this level is presently used as a bedroom, offering flexibility for guests or quiet rest.
Upstairs, the home reveals one of its most captivating features: a luminous corner room with three windows framing views of the surrounding Tuscan landscape. Beneath your feet lie exquisite original wooden floors—rich with history, beautifully preserved, and rare in their authenticity. A gentle pellet stove adds warmth, making this space as comforting as it is striking.
From here, four additional bedrooms unfold, each with its own charm, one of which leads through to another—creating a sense of flow and discovery. A second bathroom completes this level, ideal for family and visitors alike.
Below, vast, high-ceilinged cantinas whisper of potential—perhaps a rustic summer kitchen, a place for long alfresco evenings, or a creative space that opens directly onto the garden.
Outside, the garden offers a private haven, large enough for an above-ground pool and perfect for soaking in the golden Tuscan sun, surrounded by greenery and birdsong.
Set in the idyllic village of Vallico Sotto, beneath the majestic Monte Matanna and nestled in a deep emerald valley, the location is as captivating as the home itself. Renowned local restaurants and traditional pizzerias are just a short distance away, offering the true flavors of Tuscany.
Accessed by a gentle walk through the village, this home reveals itself slowly—just as it should—rewarding you with beauty, tranquility, and a deep sense of place.
This is more than a house; it is a love letter to Tuscany.
