Description Rustling Oaks: Valverde

This period stone villa, filled with antique furnishings, is what we call love at first sight. You will have four spacious floors all to yourself for a dream Tuscan escape with your loved ones. The property sits in the open countryside among rolling hills dotted with cypress trees. Outside, in the manicured gardens, you can make the most of the sunny days and read a book beside the pool or unwind in the Jacuzzi with a cocktail. You will never get weary of listening to the rustling oaks and orchard trees or inhaling the scent of herbs and roses. Sweat out any remaining stresses in the sauna, then whip up some fresh pasta in the kitchen and round up everyone for dinner under the gazebo. Should you need anything more, you’re just a one-minute drive from Sarteano, with its charming medieval houses, wine bars, restaurants and shops.
