Living in Bucine

Bucine leads into the Val d'Ambra, a little-known and beautiful side valley dotted with castles, stone villages and farmed hills bordering the Sienese Chianti.

The main town is practical, with a station on the Florence–Arezzo line and everyday services. Ambra is the hub of its namesake valley, while Montebenichi, Cennina and Pietraviva are fortified villages that seem frozen in time, surrounded by vineyards and woods.

This is where you find some of the most beautiful villas and farmhouses with pools in the Valdarno, popular with international buyers, as well as village houses and rustic properties at interesting prices. Life is slow and nature takes centre stage.

Bucine is for anyone after picture-postcard Tuscany without the crowds, with Siena, Arezzo and Chianti within easy reach.
