View residential complex "PODERE LA COSTA"
PODERE LA COSTA - Beautiful, panoramic structure built into the side of a hill at 350 meters a.s.l. The property extends for 7 hectares of partially fenced-in grounds with woodlands and olive groves and is reached by 400 meters of excellent dirt track with access through a private gate. The fenced-in, 6 X 12 meter swimming pool sits on an outcropping of the hillside and dominates the underlying countryside from the valley of the Arno river to the hills of lower Apennines. The farmhouse structure completed restoration in 2004 and resulted in 4 independent apartments. The property is ideal for those wishing to spend a holiday of relaxation but is also set in a position that provides easy access to most of the important cities of Tuscany. The village of Casalguidi with shop and public tennis is at 3 kms, Cantagrillo with a very good Restaurant, and San Baronto are also at about 4 kms. Vinci, birthplace of Leonardo da Vinci is at 6 kms. An 18-hole golf course with Restaurant is at about 3 kms at Pievaccia. Pistoia is at 9 kms, Montecatini Terme with its renowned Spa is at 10 kms, Firenze at 25 kms, Lucca is at 30 kms and Pisa at 50 kms, as are the beaches of the famous Versilia. Just inside the access gate is a parking area for all the apartments. From here, the guests of apartments Cino and Fabio, can reach the terraces of their apartments by way of short uphill ramps. Aldo and Oratorio are at ground floor and are reached from the parking area straight through the open courtyard. A discount is offered for those who book apts Aldo and Oratorio together. The apartment terraces are all connected by external stairs in case they are booked together. The pool also has private accesses from each apartment. There is central gas heating, and gas is payable on consumption together with firewood during heating season. The apartments are very comfortably furnished and luminous, with particular care taken in the kitchens: the owners are gourmet cooks and meet often during the winter to have cooking parties. They belong to different generations, but culinary skills bring them together in perfect harmony. They are all related and very friendly and helpful with tips and suggestions. The apartments have washing machines, satellite TV with DVD, a baby cot, and videophones connected to the entrance gate. Once a week, a free winetasting for guests is organised in a farm at 2 kms from Podere La Costa.
