The Watermill is located in Sambuca Val di Pesa, a small village between Siena and Florence. The property consists of a central building and two barns surrounded by lush and colorful vegetation, filled with fragrances, and sounds that make it a truly unique place to connect with nature. The rustling of leaves blends and the sound of the Pesa River are both soothing and refreshing. On the ground floor of the Villa, a spacious living room leads to a grand dining room with a fireplace and a bread oven followed by a modern kitchen restored and equipped with all the modern conveniences, a bathroom with laundry facilities, and finally the main suite with a large and luxurious private bathroom with travertine shower.

From here, you have access to two suites, both with private bathrooms and travertine showers. One of these suites features a freestanding bathtub with a panoramic view of the Villa's garden. Another suite, located on the garden floor with direct access to an exclusive patio, has been entirely carved out of the ancient mill's manger used as a horse rest stop and for grain storage, still visible in the suite's private bathroom. What makes this room even more special is its proximity to the mill room where the ancient millstones are still present. Located on the left side of the main building in one of the barns, another suite (the biggest annex) extends over two levels: on the ground floor there is a double bedroom with a bathroom and access to a front patio and a lateral loggia used as a dining area, while on the upper floor, there is a loft with two single beds overlooking the villa's pool.
