Fontanelle
Architect-designed villa near Montalcino, where vineyards stretch to the horizon and Brunello flows as freely as conversation. Featured in design magazines for its refined interiors.
Architect's Villa among Brunello Vineyards
Fontanelle sits amongst the rolling vineyards near Montalcino, where Brunello wine has made this corner of Tuscany famous. This architect-owned villa offers a refined base for exploring the region's celebrated wineries, with private pool and terraces positioned to catch views across the cypress-dotted hills. The interiors have caught the eye of Elle Decor and House and Garden, testament to the thoughtful restoration.



Description
Natural tones run throughout the main house, where terracotta floors meet exposed beams and vaulted ceilings create generous volumes. The living room opens to a vine-covered terrace at the rear, while air-conditioned bedrooms in the main house provide cool retreats. The kitchen comes well-equipped for preparing local produce, with a barbecue available for outdoor cooking. Mosquito nets and baby beds can be arranged as needed.
Flexible in size, the property welcomes up to 10 guests in the main house or 16 when the guest house’s three bedrooms are included. That one-of-a-kind terrace overlooking the countryside becomes the natural gathering spot for meals, positioned to catch both morning light and evening breezes. The owner's design background shows in every considered detail, from the placement of furniture to the selection of natural materials that echo the Tuscan landscape beyond.
From here, the thermal waters of Bagno Vignoni and Bagni San Filippo lie within easy reach, as do the hilltop streets of Pienza and the distinctive landscapes of Val d'Orcia. Castello Banfi offers wine tastings and dining just minutes away, while Siena sits an hour's drive north. The coast and Punta Ala golf course are equally accessible for day trips. Note that a resident cat roams the garden grounds.
