Castello Maremma

An amazing, 6 bedroom castle perched up on top of a cliff overlooking the sea of southern Tuscany

Seacoast-Tuscany Villa 12

Perched up on top of a cliff overlooking the sea in southern Tuscany, this villa is an absolute stunner, with a charm, which is unique - it’s been the property of choice for the 007 movie, Quantum of Solace" (2008).. The estate is composed by a scenic tower and one annex (below), both furnished in a bohemian, elegant style: authentic local materials, pale palettes and classic use of spaces, in pure Mediterranean style. Originally an ancient watchtower that dates back to the 13th Century, the property has been frequently restored and offers great views from its terraces and from the swimming pool below. A walkway leads down to the seashore and the private sun deck while a private road leads to the property. The luminous lounge on the first floor offers again various vistas to the Mediterranean Sea, the terrace furnished with table, chairs and sun loungers is a fantastic, evocative spot for relaxing or dining alfresco whilst enjoying the sight of the Tuscan islands on the horizon. The house is furnished with antiques, maintaining its historical atmosphere, but the interior is airy, full of light, cosy and welcoming. Please note: the private beach (small rocks) is shared with another property in the estate. It is possible to share that area or to agree on turns for use of the space.

House Walk Through - 

On entering the house, on the right hand side, there is a little dining room with fireplace, table and chairs from which one accesses two of the lovely double bedrooms. On the left of the entrance corridor there is a fully equipped kitchen and one further double bedroom with en-suite bathroom. From the corridor a few steps lead to the first floor of the villa with a luminous lounge with gorgeous views and air conditioning. At one end we find a sitting area and a dining table and chairs, as well as a little kitchenette. This lovely room opens onto a terrace furnished with table and chairs for dining al fresco and sun loungers, an absolutely spectacular spot for relaxing whilst enjoying the magnificent sea views stretching as far as to admire the Tuscan islands of Giglio and Montecristo on the horizon. In another wing of the villa, reached via a little staircase from the small ground floor dining area, there is the ancient watchtower where there is a characteristic double bedroom with fireplace and on the level above reached by wooden stairs a dressing area and a bathroom with shower. From here there is access to a little terrace at the top of the tower. Close to the main villa is a lovely annex (guest house), which is fully air-conditioned and has a sitting room and two further double bedrooms each with their en-suite bathroom with shower. There is plenty of space for relaxation at the villa, with a panoramic terrace and a further terrace area below where there is a swimming pool (6m x 4m) surrounded by wooden sun deck. It’s a joy to dine alfresco and enjoy a barbecue whilst savouring the beautiful sunset. The villa also features its own walkway leading down to a platform rocky beach shared with another family villa and seashore, with sun deck and gorgeous sea views.  


Location Details: Maremma Coastline (Tuscany)-

Washed by the clear water of the Tyrrhenian Sea, the Maremma coastline is long, with cliff overlooking the crystal see and encrusted with villas alternating with sandy beaches bordered by dunes and decked with green bushes and flowers, framed by lush, thick pine groves. The long sandy shore runs from Punta Ala to Castiglione della Pescaia, from Marina di Grosseto to Pincipina a Mare to the wild coves of Marina di Alberese in the Maremma National Park: uncontaminated nature, a crystal-clear water and some very famous beaches such as Ultima Spiaggia. Here, along the Tyrrhenian coast, between Grosseto and Capalbio, sits the most understated and chicest seaside riviera of Italy, a secret hub for the world famous in search of privacy as well as for true lover of the sea, a place where still today Royals from all Europe convey and hunt together for wild boar. The two main towns in the area are the medieval village of Capalbio, enveloped in an atmosphere of understated sophistication that won’t fail to take any visitor’s breath away, and Porto Ercole, which has one of the Maremma’s best nightlife scenes, both unforgettable for those who love the classic glamour of la dolce vita.
