This charming apartment is on the third floor of a 14th -century building featuring a medieval tower dating back to 1200. The result of a skilful restoration is one only unit. The building lies in Via Banchi di Sotto 8, under the “Croce del Travaglio” where according to tradition the “Capitani” of the contrade meet to settle their controversies.

Entering a big ogival door typical of the Middle Ages an ancient staircase leads into the house. A spacious hall covered with handmade cotto tiles, a wall with the tower stones. Two original “cenci” are hanging on the opposite wall and a spiral staircase leads to the sitting room and a room with small bathroom and closet.

The apartment with a living area of about 160sqm is made up of a big living room with frescoed ceiling and a dining room divided by a suggestive series of arches. Two big windows give onto the most beautiful square in the world – that is Piazza del Campo. Thanks to the favourable position the whole square can be admired and the Torre del Mangia seems so near that you can touch it. This wonderful sight can be enjoyed all the year round especially in July and August during the palio horse race.

The kitchen topped in Siena marble is equipped with every comfort. The bedrooms are mainly on the old tower: a big bedroom with two windows, wonderful frescoed ceiling, spacious wardrobes and a bathroom in Siena marble too.

In the nearby small living room a staircase leads to a twin bedded room with spacious built-in wardrobes. On the ceiling are the magnificent capitals owned by the Chigi Saracini family, who founded the famous Accademia Chigiana.

A luxurious bathroom with shower. The cellar is 40sqm.
