The advantages of living in the countryside

Contact with nature, healthy lifestyle and much more: here is why you should move to the countryside


"In the countryside, silence is never silent: there is always a chirping of cicadas and birds, a flutter of wings, the buzz of an insect, a lightning rustle in the grass, the sound of a drop of water. It doesn’t exist a more beautiful silence" - Fabrizio Caramagna


We feel relaxed just reading this quote. Indeed, this is what people search for when leave cities to escape in the countryside.

Why to move to the countryside

Are you willing to change your life? Do you want to buy a holiday home? Or do you wish to invest in a farmhouse

Here are a few reasons a move to the countryside might be good for you, especially in Tuscany. Imagine waking up hearing the sound of nature, as well as breathing clean, fresh air. Imagine to taste fruit, vegetables, wine and oil cultivated in your own land. Imagine enjoying a wonderful panorama and a slowly, healthy lifestyle. Imagine raising up happy children, free to scream and play in contact with nature. Finally, imagine having a wide home cheaper than a small city flat.

The charm of the Tuscan countryside

Tuscan countryside is one of the most famous worldwide. Everybody loves its colors, its atmosphere, its lifestyle.

Indeed, a lot of celebrities chose to buy a house in Tuscany, such as the singer Sting, the fashion designer Paul Smith and the film director Alfonso Cuarón Orozco.


The charming Tuscan-style house - with the stone façade and wooden beams ceiling - is the dream home of many. It can be luxury or rustic, with or without pool, to be restored or ready to host you, perched on an isolated hill or close to the beach/village. No matter how you imagine your country-house, Tuscany Maremma offers several solutions!
