Michelangelo apartment

Large windows facing onto the Tuscan countryside underline the panoramic character of the Michelangelo apartment. This breathtaking view highlights the historic elegance of San Gimignano, Certaldo Alto, Castellina in Chianti, Villa del Monte and Montaione, with all their timeless magic.

The building

Our guests are housed in a unique setting.

Il Castro was built in the 13th century as a rural hamlet on the via Francigena, an ancient pilgrimage route. An old story recounts that in the 16th century, the famous artist Michelangelo passed several nights here on a trip to Rome, fascinated by the beauty of the location.
Now the property opens its doors to guests looking for peace and relaxation in a historic location with beautiful landscapes, which is also a magical setting in which time seems to stand still.
The furnishings have been decorated by local craftsmen, and fit perfectly with the high quality designer accessories which make it so original, elegant and eclectic – unique also due to the high quality of its materials.

The interiors

The Michelangelo apartment is the largest and most prestigious in the complex;

it has an independent ground floor entrance with stairs leading up to the first room, an office/bedroom on the mezzanine floor, followed by the large living room with skilfully restored old fireplace, then the kitchen, double bedroom, dressing room and bathroom and, via another vestibule, the second double bedroom with en suite bathroom and, finally, another bedroom which is reached via an internal staircase with gallery mezzanine; the total area is 220 sq.m..

The Michelangelo apartment can be reached via the building’s walkway directly from the private garden located in front of the day area with its view over San Gimignano, from which a series of steps leads to the shared swimming pool in the lower outdoors level. The apartment is fully furnished and renovated, leaving all the original details like the traditional exposed beam brick ceilings and the antique terracotta brick floors. The light coloured furniture and exposed wood make the interior warm and welcoming, a mix of shabby chic and rustic. The large, airy living room faces onto the garden, offering a sensation of peace and nature through its panoramic windows.

Bellissima la piscina, immersa nel verde, massima tranquillità, scenario bucolico con scorci meravigliosi. Stanza ampia e luminosa, soffitto con travi a vista suggestivo. Da vedere anche in un'altra stagione magari il prossimo autunno.

Location perfetta, sapientemente ristrutturata, appartamenti finemente arredati e con dettagli di pregio, un oasi di pace con vista su paesaggi di rara bellezza. Spero di poterci soggiornare nuovamente a breve, consigliatissimo.
