Colonica Giulia

Located on the gentle green hills of Chianti between Florence and Siena, Colonica Giulia enjoys stunning views of the countryside surrounding with grain fields, vineyards and olive groves. Colonica Giulia has been recently restored preserving the original characteristics of its Tuscan stone structure harmoniously divided in different levels.

On one side the villa is attached to another farmhouse completely outside of the property and watching on the other side to ensure utmost privacy to the clients at Colonica Giulia.

The Villa has been completely refurbished maintaining its original structural characteristics such as the stone walls, wooden beamed ceilings and terracotta floors. Furnishings are also made using mostly traditional materials as wood and wrought iron but with a careful eye to all the modern appliances to ensure maximum comfort. The many windows and the French doors give brightness and light to the villa.

It is the ideal starting base for daytrips to nearby hilltop villages, the most important Tuscan cities of art and the famous wine producing farms of the area.

ACCOMODATION

Colonica Giulia can easily accomodate 8 persons (2 in the adjacent dependence). The villa extends over two floors but only the first floor is rented as downstairs lives the owner Giulia. 

You enter the villa from an independent access from the hall called “Stanza del forno”. The apartment is made of 3 bedrooms (2 doubles and 1 twin) and 2 bathrooms with showers; living room, dining room and spacious kitchen. A real treasure is the little study obtained in the "tower of pigeons". From the whole apartment you can enjoy spectacular views of the famous sweet hills of Chianti.

The dependance is completely refurbished, small barn on two levels: on the ground floor you can find the large living area with fireplace, dining table and kitchen corner (oven, freezer, dishwasher) and a service bathroom. A wooden staircase leads to the first floor where there is the double bedroom with bathroom with shower. This dependence is only rented together with the villa and not separately.

GARDEN & SWIMMING POOL

The perfectly manicured lawn in the garden area is completed with flower pots and shady trees. The refreshing pool (5 x 10 meters and min. depth 1,2 meters - max. depth 1,6 meters), for the exclusive use of the clients, gives you relief from the hottest summer days. It is fully equipped with sun umbrella and sun lounges. Here you can relax and read a book or enjoy a glass of wine with friends and family.

The villa offers a barbecue and the portico is organized with table and chairs to eat outside and a comfortable bathroom.
