Volaria

Perched gently between the golden hills of Florence, Pisa, and the glittering Tyrrhenian coast, Volaria Tuscany is a refined Tuscan estate that hums with stillness and soul. Surrounded by a timeless landscape of vineyards, cypress-lined roads, and distant medieval towers, this five-bedroom retreat offers a deep connection to nature, art, and the rich rhythm of Italian life.

Just outside Volterra—an ancient town steeped in Etruscan secrets and Renaissance grace—Volaria blends the elegance of traditional Tuscan architecture with carefully curated modern comforts. The villa is both secluded and connected: a peaceful escape tucked into rolling countryside, yet within effortless reach of Chianti’s vineyards, San Gimignano’s cobbled alleys, and the cultural treasures of Siena and Florence.

The Villa

Volaria is a place where history meets design—where stone walls speak of centuries past and every room tells its own quiet story. Restored with reverence, the interiors are adorned with aged wood, smooth terracotta floors, artisanal ceramics, and soft, sun-washed textiles. French doors and arched windows open onto terraces, gardens, and courtyards scented with rosemary and wild herbs.

The open-plan living areas are made for unhurried days—reading in front of the fireplace, sipping wine in a shaded loggia, or gathering for long, candlelit dinners beneath oak-beamed ceilings. A chef’s kitchen anchors the heart of the home, equipped with everything needed for lazy lunches or private-catered feasts.

Outside, a saltwater infinity pool mirrors the undulating hills beyond, and a pergola-draped dining terrace offers a front-row seat to every golden-hour moment. Olive trees sway in the breeze, cicadas sing their lullaby, and time seems to pause with the setting sun.

Bedrooms & Layout

Each of the villa’s five en-suite bedrooms is a tranquil hideaway, dressed in tones of earth and stone, linen and light. Carefully chosen antique furnishings pair with plush bedding, ensuring rest feels like ritual.

• Primary Suite – Located on the upper level, the master bedroom opens onto a private terrace with long views across the valley. The en-suite bath features a freestanding soaking tub, rainfall shower, and twin vanities crafted in creamy Travertine.

• Guest Suite I & II – Also on the upper level, these sun-dappled rooms each offer queen beds, built-in wardrobes, and elegant en-suite baths with countryside views.

• Garden Suite – Located on the ground level, this bedroom opens directly into the olive grove via French doors, creating a seamless connection between indoor serenity and outdoor calm.

• Tower Room – Perhaps the most romantic, this suite is nestled in the villa’s ancient tower, accessed via a wooden staircase. From the windows, 360° panoramic views unfold—a true perch in the sky.

Outdoor Living

Life at Volaria unfolds as much outdoors as in. Whether it’s breakfast beneath the jasmine-covered pergola, lounging by the pool with a chilled glass of Vernaccia, or gathering around the fire pit under a sky strewn with stars—every corner of the estate is designed for connection and quiet celebration.

The gardens bloom with native herbs, lavender, and olive trees. A shaded dining table seats twelve, perfect for al fresco meals with seasonal produce from the local markets or private chef creations. The scent of grilled rosemary chicken and woodsmoke mingles with the breeze as conversations stretch long into the night.

Why We Love It

Volaria is not a destination—it’s an experience. It’s sketchbooks and straw hats, garden naps and shared laughter, the sound of wine being poured and the hush just before the sunset. It’s the type of place where time slows down, where the landscape becomes a companion, and where every guest rediscovers something they didn’t realize they’d lost: stillness, simplicity, soul.

Whether you’re here to write, rest, gather, or wander, Volaria invites you into its embrace—graceful, grounding, and deeply, unmistakably Tuscan.
