Casa di Gloria is a lovely terraced house situated in the centuries old Fattoria Scopeto which rests on top of a hill enjoying a fine view of San Gimignano in the distance. Originally a group of traditional Tuscan farmhouses, Scopeto has recently been restored and divided into traditional terraced houses and a few apartments, some like Casa di Gloria which are rented, and others owned by italian families who enjoy them as weekend country retreats. The enclosed grounds of the estate are full of mature trees and a large swimming pool (15m x 8m) enjoying lovely views of the surrounding countryside has been added. Casa di Gloria is a fine house, its entrance on the ground floor leads to the lovely living room with original terracotta vaulted ceiling and a characteristic fireplace surrounded by settees and an armchair. The owner who has artistic flair has added lots of homely touches to make the house very comfortable and welcoming. There is a pleasant dining area in the living room, a separate fully equipped kitchen, and just off the kitchen the owner has also added a handy second shower room. Upstairs, a corridor lined with pretty pictures, leads to three nicely furnished bedrooms, a master bedroom with a large double bed, another with a slightly smaller double bed and a third with single bed, as well as the main bathroom with bath tub. A couple of paces across from the entrance to the house is its large well kept private garden. Shaded by mature trees, the garden which is fully enclosed and furnished with sun loungers and table and chairs for dining al fresco, enjoys a fantastic view both of the swimming pool and of the countryside with San Gimignano visible on the hill in the distance. The garden is an idyllic spot for relaxing and soaking up the sun and the view, whilst the large swimming pool just below invites you to take a refreshing swim. San Gimignano with its medieval towers, wealth of monuments, craft shops and excellent restaurants is only 5km away and a joy to explore. Casa di Gloria is in a convenient location for visiting all of Tuscany’s major sights, with Siena and Florence both easily accessible via the road, bus and rail links at nearby Poggibonsi 13km away and Certaldo with its interesting medieval quarter and home of the famous ‘Mercantia’ craft fair is only 7km down the road. A parking space is in the grounds of the estate. |
