Casa della Luce is set in the beautiful hills of Tuscany, halfway between Siena and Arezzo (25 km). From here, one can travel north to Florence (50 km) or Chianti, or explore the unique landscape of the Crete. Destinations like Pienza, Montalcino, and Montepulciano are within easy daytrip distance. The closest village is Ambra, just 7 km away, with shops, post office, pharmacy, coffee bars and restaurants. Facilities for horseback riding, polo, and wine tasting are available nearby, and excellent shopping (Gucci, Armani, Ferragamo, and many others) can be found at The Mall in Leccio (35 km).

Casa della Luce is located on the "Strada del Vino Terre di Arezzo" (the wine route). An unpaved road leads from the main road to this large estate, surrounded by olive groves, vineyards, and woodlands. This charming farmhouse has been renovated to offer traditional Tuscan style with modern conveniences. The property has a well-kept, fenced garden of flowering plants and olive trees, and lovely outdoor spaces to relax or dine al fresco. The large patio has a pizza oven and BBQ, and the beautiful swimming pool (16 x 5 meters; open June 1-September 30) is equipped with lounge chairs and a comfortable futon in the shade. Just next to the pool area is a sauna and an extra bathroom with shower.

The owner lives in another villa on the estate, but it is 1.5 kilometers from the house and cottage, so guests have complete privacy with the security of knowing someone is nearby if needed.

MAIN HOUSE (200 sq meters)
Built on two levels, with traditional cotto floors and beamed ceilings, this is a perfect place to enjoy an authentic experience in the Tuscan countryside! The main house is fully air conditioned. On the ground floor there is a spacious, charming living room with a fireplace and satellite TV. The dining room has a long wooden table in front of a large window with a view of the garden. The fully equipped kitchen has a microwave, dishwasher, and a washing machine. There is also a guest half-bathroom on this level. Each room on the ground floor has direct access to the garden. A stone staircase (13 steps) leads to the second floor, where there are three cozy double bedrooms (beds are not divisible), each with its own en suite bath. One bedroom has a bathtub with handheld shower. Another has a bathroom with a shower, and the third has a bathtub and a separate shower. All of the bedrooms are air conditioned and are nicely furnished, with antique wooden furniture, cotto floors, and beamed ceilings. Hair dryers are provided in each bathroom, and there is also an iron and ironing board in the house.

GUESTHOUSE (180 sq meters)
Next to the main house is a cottage with a bright, spacious living room with a fireplace, large windows, and comfortable furniture. The kitchen corner has a refrigerator and electric range, and there is one double bedroom with a large en suite pink marble bathroom with shower.
