VILLA DUCESE MANDORLA - AREZZO AREA
The estate is composed of two villas that are located next to each other: villa Ducese and villa Mandorla. Villa Ducese is a splendid example of a typical Tuscan house designed in 1700 by the architects of Grand Duke Leopoldo di Lorena, with characteristic arches superimposed on the façade. Villa Mandorla is a beautiful and typical Tuscan farmhouse, recently renovated.
The villas are located within a renowned winery with a restaurant at just 250m that offers wine tasting from the local products and tasty Tuscan food. There you can find a beautiful garden with comfortable outdoor furnishings that offers splendid views over the area, perfect for an al-fresco dining in the evenings. The photos of the armchairs with candles and views belong to the winery. Within a short driving distance, 10 minutes, we can reach Arezzo with its many shops, restaurants, Cathedral, etc., while Florence is only an hour and a half away.
