The Palazzo di Barberino is quite fitting a name - the palace of Barberino, this gem of Renaissance architecture rests on the main street of the medieval village of Barberino Val d'Elsa. Closed to traffic, this hamlet is seemingly untouched by modern life without sacrificing any modern conveniences. A courtyard leads to a stone terrace with pergola, furnished for alfresco dining and relaxation. Please note that 50 steps lead to the private 4 x 10 meter swimming pool and sundeck. The villa features the handcrafted terracotta floors, exposed wood beam ceilings and original stone fireplaces typical of traditional Tuscan country homes. A variety of prized antiques, volumes of books and Corsini family heirlooms make this a unique rental opportunity. Warm, red, Mediterranean hues and delicate floral patterns soften the interiors of this magnificent palazzo, while centuries-old oak furniture lends it an aristocratic feel. The first floor above the entrance courtyard and terrace consists of 2 living rooms, one with fireplace that opens onto a terrace; fully modern kitchen with dishwasher; laundry room with washing machine; 2 double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms; 2 twin bedrooms, 2 single bedrooms and 2 additional bathrooms.
