Borgo Glicine, Pienza, Val d'Orcia - Toscana
Traditional country borgo in a stunning panoramic setting, finely restored with a swimming pool and a spa for sale near Pienza, Siena. Few spots have a more bucolic setting than this 18th-century country borgo. It sits amidst a lovingly tended estate in the rolling Tuscan countryside, but nevertheless just a short distance from the Unesco-listed town of Pienza. It’s hard to imagine a better position for feeling away from it all, but with so many delightful side trips a short distance away. And despite the countryside setting, one doesn’t have to drive down miles of unpaved road for the effect. Left abandoned for several decades after the 60’s, it has been finely restored into a charming country borgo with a manor residence and 8 guest apartments. Modern art installations are harmoniously combined with ancient stone walls and superb wooden beam ceilings. All apartments are self-contained, fully equipped with a kitchen, country-style furniture and antiques, some enjoy private pergolas and garden terraces for al fresco dining. The borgo consists of a central U-shape building housing 8 residences, a detached cottage with a guest apartment, a stunning spa with gym, a diner hall with spacious and bright veranda. A second detached building boasts a library room and an art studio. The swimming pool is perfectly located in an astonishing panoramic setting of the garden surrounded by olive trees and an infinity view over Val d’Orcia’s countryside. Borgo Glicine is a superb property, in an idyllic position, with established long-term relationships with upper-class international clients, perfect to host tourists for their holidays, ceremonies and anniversaries in Tuscany, magnificent as a private country residence to enjoy with family and friends
