Leccino

Leccino (1000 ft.²): Leccino is the darker olive that gives body and integrity to our oil. As such, the Leccino apartment, the lower floor of the Villa Montecastello, is a hideaway of rarified beauty, with its direct access out into the garden and its generosity of space for a one bedroom apartment with the capability of accommodating an extra couple or children on the comfortable convertible bed/couch in the living room.
 
The kitchen is quite large with marble topped table looking out to the olive grove. An extra counter behind the oversized Tuscan sink offers plenty of room for several "chefs" to work together without rubbing elbows. A wood burning fireplace warms the stone walled room so that one is tempted to linger over mealtimes in the Italian style.
 
The Master bedroom is spacious and light with an antique armoire and queen sized bed. The oversized travertine bathroom has a separate shower stall and bathtub under the window for a "bath with a view."
 
The living area opens directly out onto the garden space in the olive grove, from where you can see San Gimignano and the valley of the Elsa below. A wood burning fireplace invites one to pull a book off the shelf and curl up on the oversized couch, or to pull out the comfortable queen sized bed contained within and bunk in an extra couple or children.
