Capanna di Citerna, Gaiole in Chianti, Siena and Chianti
Capanna di Citerna is a beautifully restored holiday home in an exceptional location, surrounded by the vineyards of the historic Ricasoli estate. Perfect for a couple, this charming retreat offers peace, privacy and breathtaking views of the Chianti Classico landscape. The spacious terrace invites you to relax or enjoy meals outdoors while taking in the picture-perfect scenery that defines this region of Tuscany.
Set in the heart of the Chianti Classico, the villa is ideally located for exploring the area's most famous towns, villages, wineries and castles. The Castello di Brolio, the centre of the Ricasoli estate and one of the most iconic castles in the region, is only 2 kilometres away and can also be reached on foot in about 30 minutes. In addition to wine tastings, it offers an excellent restaurant. Gaiole in Chianti is a 20-minute drive and provides a small COOP supermarket, shops and a good choice of restaurants. Just ten minutes away lies the tiny hamlet of Villa a Sesta, home to two Michelin-starred restaurants. Siena is only 26 kilometres away and Florence, Arezzo and San Gimignano are also ideal for day trips.
The house enjoys a quiet rural position with open views of the surrounding hills and vineyards. It offers a peaceful setting immersed in nature, yet close to cultural and culinary highlights.
This traditional stone-built house is all on one level, with an open mezzanine. A well-maintained lawn and a large terrace provide a generous outdoor living space, perfect for dining, reading or simply enjoying the view.
Inside, the villa combines Tuscan charm with understated elegance. Terracotta floors, wooden beamed ceilings and an open-plan layout create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Carefully selected furniture blends antique pieces with modern comfort, making Capanna di Citerna an ideal base for a relaxing and authentic Tuscan escape.
