Description

Vicario is in a small hamlet of villas just 8 km outside of Siena. Part of a country estate that still produces grains, olive oil, and wine, the rustic stone exterior with brick trim and tile roof give it a traditional look. The interior is wonderful. Hand hewn wood beamed ceilings and terra cotta floors have been carefully preserved. It's furnished particularly well, and even featured in Architectural Digest. Sitting on a hilltop, the home enjoys views of beautiful and serene vineyards and countryside. The living quarters are on the second floor; the ground floor a large patio / loggia for al fresco dining. This is a lovely quiet location to return to after a day of wandering the Tuscan countryside.

Hand hewn ceiling beams and terra cotta tile floors preserve the traditional character of this country home. The fine decorating makes it a special vacation retreat. The location is ideal for those who wish to see the sites of Tuscany. Siena is only 8 kms (about 5 miles) and Florence is 50 kms.
