La Terrazza di Rosennano is the Italian retreat of a Belgian couple and both architects with a love for beauty, calm and the Tuscan landscape. During the Covid period, they searched for a place that offered peace of mind — and found it in the car-free hilltop village of Rosennano.
With two distinct living areas — a cool summer space on the lower level and a cosy winter retreat upstairs — and three sun-soaked terraces, La Terrazza di Rosennano is a place to reconnect with simplicity and beauty. A stay here is a gentle immersion into the Italian way of life, with architecture, art, silence, wine and sweeping views at every turn.
The owners of La Terrazza di Rosennano are partners and both architects. They live in Belgium.
We have two children and share a love for architecture, art, and Japan. Together, we run an architecture firm.
During the pandemic, we were looking for a place where we could truly unwind. After a year of searching, we met a local entrepreneur who had transformed the abandoned village of Rosennano into a beautiful collection of homes.
A local entrepreneur and architect renovated the houses in the village. We took care of the interior design of our home ourselves. Gradually, we’re also updating the kitchens and adding our own personal touch.
The view on the Tuscany hills is outstanding and exceptional. We can see the Monte Amiata, the villages Montepulciano and Montalcino. The village Rosennanno is build on a hill, and has a view over 360° , over the Tuscany region. No cars, no pollution, only birds, trees, vineyards.
The interior is warm and authentic. In fact, there is a summer place and a winter place. The summer place is at the terrace level, and is cool during the warm days. The winter place is upstairs, and is warm during the cold days. Both areas have their own kitchen and living space.
We love the most the three terraces, which give an incredible view.
