Villas with Pool

Description

The elegant villa is situated in Siena countryside, in Valdelsa, in Casaglia, a small village between San Gimignano and Poggibonsi. The villa is an excellent departure point for visiting the most famous towns in the Florentine and Sienese Chianti and other Tuscan tourist destinations, such as Certaldo, Volterra, Colle Val d`Elsa, Siena and Florence.

In the origin the building was a church built in the 12th century. Prior to being transformed into a villa, the church was deconsecrated and used as a sighting tower and a meeting-place for peasants.
