This modern farmhouse villa is full of classic Tuscan charm and comes fully equipped with modern amenities. The interior of the villa reflects refined taste with a mixture of contemporary and antique furnishings. Monticelli resides in the gorgeous rolling hills of the Val d'Orcia region, where sunlight shines on long green valleys and fields of poppies. Ancient brick towers cast long shadows from their tall cathedrals. Due to its location, this modern villa is bathed in natural light, making it complementary to one of the most beautiful areas in the world.

A dark office in the center of the house was turned into this cozy library. We opened the space up to the living room by adding another large archway. The custom bookshelves have beadboard backing to match original boarding we found in the house.. The library lamps are from Rejuvenation.
