Villa 'Podere Sofia' with Mountain View, Private Terrace and Wi-Fi
Podere Sofia is a charming retreat set in a peaceful valley near Gaiole in Chianti, surrounded by rolling hills and unspoilt Tuscan countryside. Ideally suited to couples seeking the authentic atmosphere and slower pace of rural Tuscany.
The apartment is arranged on one level and retains its rustic character through exposed stone walls and elegant finishes. The well-equipped kitchen, comfortable living and dining area, double bedroom with king-size bed, and contemporary bathroom with travertine marble and spacious shower provide everything needed for a relaxed stay. Amenities include Wi-Fi suitable for video calls, smart TV, pellet stove, washing machine, dryer, crib, high chair, and artisanal olive oil from over 200 olive trees on the property.
The apartment opens onto a shaded terrace framed by mature shrubs—an inviting space for outdoor dining and relaxation throughout the day. A private hot tub offers the perfect place to unwind after exploring. Bordered by an olive grove, the garden enhances the traditional Tuscan setting, and guests benefit from one sheltered parking space on site.
Gaiole in Chianti is just a short drive away, with local supermarkets and bakeries for everyday essentials. Radda in Chianti can be reached in under 15 minutes, offering restaurants, wine bars, and local shops. Siena, San Gimignano, and Florence are all within easy reach for day trips. The villa is also conveniently located near a famous cycling route, making it an excellent base for exploring the Chianti countryside by bike.
Small dogs only are welcome (large dogs are not permitted). Smoking is permitted. The apartment is part of a historic farmhouse where the owners live just above and are available to offer assistance and local advice if required. The property is also home to three well-behaved dogs.
The farmhouse was built in two phases in the 19th century, originally a family farm. Gaiole in Chianti has been a strategic crossroads since the Middle Ages and a commercial centre of the Chianti League since the 14th century.
