Rustic Country House in Pisa, Tuscany with Pool

Details

Nestled in the unspoilt countryside of Montecatini Val di Cecina, in one of Tuscany’s most authentic rural settings, this beautifully restored farmhouse appears quietly among cypress trees, olive groves and Mediterranean vegetation, deeply connected to the landscape around it. Reaching the property is part of its charm: approximately 600 metres of unpaved road lead to a picturesque private cypress-lined driveway, opening onto the parking area and the house. The setting offers privacy and tranquillity, with sweeping views across the surrounding hills and 5 hectares of private land, partly woodland and largely occupied by an extensive olive grove. Within the garden, a 12 x 6 metre infinity pool is set among cypresses and Mediterranean plants, overlooking the open countryside. The property offers approximately 350 sqm of overall space, with around 280 sqm of net internal area within the main house, arranged over staggered levels and comprising 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Restored by the current owners around 2010, the farmhouse retains its original Tuscan identity through exposed stone and brick façades, timber-beamed ceilings and traditional vaulted details, complemented by Puglian stone flooring and carefully chosen ethnic-inspired furnishings. Several French doors on the ground floor create a natural flow between the interiors and the surrounding landscape, while a generous loggia extending along part of the house provides a sheltered setting for outdoor dining. The ground floor includes a spacious rustic kitchen and dining area with fireplace, pantry and utility room, an impressive double-height living room centred around a fireplace, a second sitting room, a guest bedroom, a bathroom with shower, a cloakroom and a cellar. Upstairs, accessible both internally and through the original external staircase, the main bedroom features an en-suite bathroom with bathtub, shower and double basin, while two further double bedrooms, a smaller bedroom, an additional bathroom and a charming gallery overlooking the living room complete the accommodation. The property is connected to mains water and electricity and is equipped with LPG heating and internet. Life here follows the natural rhythm of the Tuscan countryside: breakfasts beneath the loggia, walks through the olive grove and woodland, long afternoons beside the infinity pool and quiet evenings gathered around the fireplaces. Despite its secluded atmosphere, the farmhouse remains conveniently connected to the surrounding area, with everyday amenities approximately 5 km away, Casale Marittimo 17 km away, Bolgheri 26 km away, Cecina and the coastline around 28-29 km away, Volterra 35 km away and Pisa International Airport approximately 82 km from the property. It is a home that preserves the character and stillness of rural Tuscany while offering the space and comfort needed to experience the landscape as part of everyday life.
