Villa Montevizzano is a comfortable private villa for 5 people, strategically situated midway between San Gimignano and Pisa. From your private pool you will enjoy unparalleled views and when you feel to be more active, you can try one of the many wineries, restaurants and day trip destinations within easy reach: Pisa, Lucca, Florence, the Tuscan coast and the Cinque Terre is a breeze from this stylish villa.
The ancient village of Palaia, was the social and political hub of the country during the Middle Ages. Nowadays it is a quaint village that you may reach on foot in about 15 minutes from your villa or less than 5 minutes by car. Here you will find at least three good restaurants, a bar, a grocer and it is also a starting point for scenic excursions of great beauty.
Villa Montevizzano's well tended grounds appeal to those of any age. An outdoor dining area by the pool and a built-in barbecue are ideal for outdoor dining under the stars. To the rear of the villa, by the kitchen door, a smaller and covered outdoor dining area providing the best spot for breakfast.
The property is fenced in and well designed to enjoy utter privacy. The nearby residential properties are not on site from the main outdoor area which instead enjoy extensive views over a verdant countryside as far as the Apuan Alps. The land surrounding the property is cultivated with olive and fruit trees providing delicious cherries that are found on sale at the end of May on the stalls of many shops and local markets in the area. La Valdera in Tuscany is a place bursting with flavour and culinary tradition: from the esteemed world-famous truffle to the cured meats, wine, extravirgin olive oil to the liquor and much more!
By car, the entrance to the Firenze-Pisa-Livorno freeway in Pontedera is reached in 20 minutes. The wide sandy beaches, sea promenade in Viareggio or the vip resort of Forte dei Marmi, together with the walled city of Lucca are reached in 50 minutes: Pisa's leaning tower, San Miniato or San Gimignano and Volterra: 30; Florence parking area Villa Costanza: less than 1 hour; the Cinque Terre: less than 2 hours; Lesser known but must-see villages in the area: Peccioli, Casciana Terme, Lajatico just to name a few, are within 20 minutes drive. Lots to see.
