Il Meleto is a stunning traditional, completely private, Tuscan farmhouse immersed in the exquisite countryside of the Senese hills and close to the Chianti region, Siena, Florence and Arezzo. Built of local stone more than 200 years ago, it has been meticulously and sensitively restored to meet modern living standards while retaining the rustic ambience of the past. It belonged at one stage to Lea Massari, film actress of the 60's. Original, exposed wooden beams, terracotta floors, French windows and shutters are an integral part of the character of the farmhouse. Il Meleto is superbly and comfortably furnished throughout with a mix of antique and country style furniture. It is set in its own 5 hectares (12 acres) of lush gardens, olive and fruit groves, vineyards and woodlands perfect for long walks. There is a sparkling swimming pool (16mx8mx2.5m) and a sun terrace for the exclusive use and enjoyment of guests. Access to the house through 900 m. of unmade road.
