CHALET WITH OWNED LAND - PRIMO RIFUGIO - MONTE AMIATA

Exclusive Villa in the Beech Forest of Mount Amiata: Mina’s Residence It was the 1960s— for the first and only time, some plots of land on Mount Amiata were designated as buildable areas. Thus, under the design and supervision of builder Marcello Pizzetti, the "mountain villas" were born: characteristic and solid chalets nestled in the beech forest. Wood and stone, the primary materials used, were carefully selected to blend seamlessly with the surrounding landscape and preserve the architectural beauty of these residences over time. This villa was commissioned by Anna Mazzini, known as Mina, and today it stands as one of the most exclusive residences in the area—an artist’s home, combining charm and comfort. A Unique and Elegant Retreat Completely renovated in 2010/2011 with the expertise of local artisans and certified materials, the villa spans three levels, covering approximately 240 sq.m. The entrance leads to the living room, where a travertine fireplace, handcrafted by a local stonemason, dominates the space as its undisputed focal point. The kitchen has direct access to the outdoors, enhancing the connection with nature. The sleeping area includes a master bedroom with a private terrace and a en-suite bathroom, a second double bedroom, a study, and a bathroom with a shower. Solid nailed hardwood floors, with planks of varying sizes, add warmth and elegance to the interiors. The lower level features a charming tavern-style space, equipped with a wood-burning stove with an integrated oven—perfect for cozy dinners during the colder seasons. Additionally, there is a laundry room and service areas. Renovated with a design philosophy inspired by "quiet luxury," the villa embodies understated elegance through the selection of high-quality materials and meticulous attention to detail. This refined style prioritizes quality over ostentation, creating welcoming spaces where comfort and sophistication exist in perfect harmony. Less is more—true luxury lies not in visible opulence, but in the intrinsic quality of materials and the precision of craftsmanship. For this reason, the home features fine fabrics, natural woods, and exquisite metals, shaping an atmosphere of serenity and refinement. Outdoor Spaces & Features The villa is surrounded by approximately 2,000 sqm of private land, featuring equipped areas, relaxation corners, and pathways leading to three wooden cottages, ideal for storage. The garden is designed for outdoor enjoyment, with a stone barbecue, a walnut dining table, an umbrella, and hammocks—perfect for embracing the tranquility of the beech forest. The outdoor lighting is remote-controlled, while the driveway gate ensures privacy and reserved parking spaces. The property is equipped with LPG heating, mosquito screens, security grilles, and select furnishings, including a custom-made kitchen, outdoor furniture, and various accessories included in the sale. A Once-in-a-Lifetime Opportunity This villa is one of the rare opportunities to own an exclusive residence within the protected beech forest of Mount Amiata, a place of extraordinary natural beauty. Its history, tied to one of Italy’s most iconic voices, adds to its allure, making it not just a charming home, but a unique piece of artistic and cultural heritage. An enchanting retreat, where nature and history intertwine with elegance.
