4 Bedroom Villa in Costal Villa, Quercianella

Some homes just make you pause at the entryway. This villa in Quercianella does that. There is a quiet in the air where you can actually hear the whisper of the sea if you stop for a second. You get a real sense of how old it is too. The house sits as part of local history since it was built in the early part of the last century by Count Rosolino Orlando. Even with that old Tuscan soul, it feels like somewhere daily life could just happen. Not stuffy at all. The living spaces flow into each other. I found myself wanting to put my bag down and look around instead of rushing through. There are two big sitting rooms on opposite sides, so it always feels like there is a sunny corner waiting for you. I kept coming back to that old stone fireplace. It still works. I stood there for a minute just thinking about how many stories and calm nights people must have shared there. It is the sort of spot that actually makes you want to hang out on a chilly evening, maybe with friends around and a bottle of something good close by.

The dining space is generous without ever feeling formal. It actually invites those easy family meals or one of those big Tuscan lunches that goes on and on because no one wants to get up from the table. The kitchen is tucked off to the side and I noticed it really feels usable. It is not one of those kitchens for show. You want to cook here. You have space to spread out and toss together something bubbling on the stove. Upstairs the bedrooms made me pause. There are four of them and each one is a bit different. You can tell they picked the spots to make the most of the views. Morning light shows up in some of them. Some have green countryside while others sneak a glimpse of blue sea. The bathrooms are fresh and clean. All four have been redone recently but whoever did the work kept the style of a real Tuscan villa. I caught myself looking down quite a bit at the floors because there is this warm terracotta mixed in with Caltagirone tiles and you even spot some old marble here and there that throws back the sunlight. It just ties everything back to Tuscany. I promise photos do not catch it properly.

Then comes the garden. South facing so you get sunlight all day. Sometimes a soft breeze sneaks up from the sea. The land looks out over rolling green then there is the sweep of blue. If it is a clear morning you can actually spot Elba off in the distance. It made me want to grab a coffee first thing and go outside before I looked at my phone. You will probably end most days there too just watching the soft colours at sunset. The garden is big enough that you could have a proper get together or just let kids run wild. It feels open and easy. Every now and then you will catch birds zipping around. I found myself smiling at that and kind of forgot about everything else for a moment.

The villa is just a short walk to the centre of Quercianella. This is a quiet corner of Tuscany right on the coast south of Livorno. You really feel the local pace. There are small shops and you notice families taking walks or heading to the markets. If you want dinner out or some beach time Castiglioncello is right nearby too. Most people who live here know each other and even if you are new you get a nod or a friendly wave.

And then there is the sea. Only about five hundred meters and you are staring at that classic wild Tuscan coast. The water changes colour through the day. If you love swimming sailing or just sitting somewhere with a view you will be happy here. The whole lifestyle stays relaxed year round. In summer people wander down to the water in sandals. In winter you just slow down a bit and find a cosy restaurant or a local coffee place where the barista remembers what you like. This part of Tuscany is full of little restaurants. You could spend weekends trying something new or just stick to what feels right.

Honestly there are families who make these homes their own and there are people who run small guest houses. The plot is big plenty of space for gardens or even making changes if you want. The old villa walls hold this sense of calm you only find in places that have seen real life.
