an ancient local farm, Buca delle Fate is today a pleasant and reserved
country home, ideal for a holiday inspired by slow and peaceful rhythms and
in the name of nature and sport. . Renovated according to the dictates of
local tradition, with rustic interiors in a classic Tuscan style, it has a
spacious common area that extends over the pergola outside and a beautiful
garden, cloaked in the silver of a thick olive grove that borders the
property. . Located in the Valdarno area, between the Pratomagno ridge and
the nearby Chianti region and halfway between Florence and Arezzo, and just
a few kilometers from the Autostrada del Sole, Buca delle Fate owes its
name to the geography of the place where it finds its happy and natural
location. We are in the heart of one of the most evocative and seductive
landscape of the valley, characterized by the presence of the so-called
crags, rocky erosions formed following the drying up of a large lake that
covered the Arno valley, and which many believe portrayed in the
backgrounds of the paintings of the great Leonardo da Vinci. The crags
offer enchanting sceneries in the hours of sunset, when the shadows creep
into the furrows dug along the steep walls, which here are called holes,
and which legend has it animated by fairy-tale presences. From the
Setteponti road, the ancient link between Arezzo and Vallombrosa, along
which the property is located, there are numerous CAI routes that allow you
to explore the whole area of the crags on foot or by mountain bike, dotted
with many rural architecture and Romanesque churches, where a rich past of
history and art resurfaces and among which the famous basilica of Gropina,
which dominates the built-up area of the village of Loro Ciuffenna,
classified among the most beautiful villages in Italy. NB: In an annex,
about 50 m from the farmhouse, the owners live discreetly and can be a
useful point of reference for guests to whom, however, full privacy is
guaranteed. classified among the most beautiful villages in Italy. NB: In

over two levels. The main entrance on the ground floor opens, through a
French door from the external pergola, directly onto the living area where
a welcoming living room, dining area and a spacious kitchen are
concentrated in a single open space. A single room communicating with a
double room with which it shares an en suite bathroom with shower complete
the composition of the floor. Both ground floor bedrooms also have direct
access to the garden via French windows. From the living room a stone
staircase ends on the first floor where, around a hallway area, there are a
single bedroom (with direct access to a terrace with seating area), a
double bedroom, a twin bedroom and two bathrooms, one with shower and the
other with shower and tub. Finally, the laundry is located outside, in a
wooden structure next to the main entrance. Park: The farmhouse is located
in a property of about 8000 square meters, most of which are intended for
the cultivation of olive trees that give rise to an excellent extra virgin
olive oil. The garden all around, completely fenced, is characterized by
lawn areas bordered by Mediterranean aromatic borders and dotted here and
there by olive trees, rose bushes and oleanders, and by many fruit trees
such as peaches, plums, walnuts, apple trees and apricot. At guests'
disposal there is also the garden cultivated by the owner from which to
draw seasonal vegetables. A large pergola in front of the kitchen, framed
by vines of passionflower and roses, houses the relaxation area with sofa
and armchairs and the table for outdoor dining, with built-in barbecue and
outdoor kitchen a short distance away. On the back, a second pergola
surrounded by fragrant climbing wisteria is a perfect corner to relax
immersed in the silence of the countryside. Immediately after the entrance
gate to the property there is the parking area, about 50 m from the
house.NB: It should be noted that the photo shoots are usually made in
spring, therefore the colors and blooms of the gardens, lawns and parks may
be different at the time of your entry into the villa. Pool: The swimming
pool, open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in
October, is located in the center of the garden, at a slightly higher level
than the house from which it is a few meters away and can be reached via a
flight of 5 steps. The tub, with a nice bean shape, with a stone border and
internal PVC lining, has an area of 40 square meters, and is equipped with
a Roman staircase on one side. It is equipped with a cold water shower and
lights both inside the tub and in the garden all around. The purification
system is chlorine. In the sunbathing area, in wood and stone along the
perimeter and then in the lawn dotted with olive trees in the surrounding
area, there are sun beds, umbrellas and a wooden gazebo furnished with
armchairs. Another swimming pool, available but not for the exclusive use
of guests, is located about 50 m from the house, near the annex where the
owners live. The tank has a rectangular shape with measures 12x6 m and a
variable depth from 1.20m to 1.70m. It too has an outdoor shower with cold
water and a large sunbathing area planted with lawn. Pets: On request,
