Luxury Villa Rental in Tuscany– Dream Vacations and Fairytale Weddings

15 February 2025 by Paola 2 Comments

Villa Santo Stefano - Luxury Villa Tuscany- Rental

My beloved readers, at the moment, I am working on several interesting and stimulating projects that celebrate the Italian lifestyle. Among them, I am thrilled to introduce to you our stunning new project: a luxurious villa rental in the heart of Tuscany, perfect for unforgettable rentals and dream weddings/events amidst breathtaking landscapes: Villa Santo Stefano alle Corti.

Nestled atop a picturesque ridge in the Upper Arno Valley, Villa Santo Stefano alle Corti is a hidden gem where luxury, history, and nature converge. Surrounded by rolling vineyards, ancient olive groves, and pristine woodlands, this exclusive estate offers a private sanctuary of elegance and tranquility—just 20 minutes from Florence.

Located in the charming Rignano Sull’Arno (Florence), the villa sits in a region rich with medieval churches, historic monasteries, and stunning landscapes that have captivated travelers for centuries. Immerse yourself in Tuscany’s world-famous cuisine, fine wines, and artistic heritage, all just moments away from this extraordinary retreat.

An Exquisite Historic Villa with Timeless Elegance in Tuscany

Originally the basilica was built in the 12th century. The rectory dates from the late 1400s. The original three-story structure remains intact but has been significantly enlarged over the centuries. Recently Villa Santo Stefano alle Corti has been meticulously restored to preserve its authentic Tuscan charm while offering modern, world-class amenities. Once a medieval church and rectory, this magnificent estate will be a luxurious haven, ideal for unforgettable vacations, weddings, and exclusive events.

Step into a world of  this historic building, where antique pieces of art whisper stories of the past, modern comforts and contemporary design seamlessly intertwine, creating a timeless dialogue between tradition and innovation.
