La Marea | SpecialItaly

La Marea is a stunning contemporary property for ten overlooking the coast in the Maremma region of Tuscany. The magnificent views in every direction include the Tuscan archipelago and the rolling vine-clad hills that produce the region’s celebrated Vermentino whites and Morello di Scansano reds. In fact, the house sits on the Podere Poggi Bestiale wine estate and a tasting session is just a short walk away.

Rebuilt and renovated by the SpecialUmbria team, the villa was ready to welcome their first guests in July 2025. The large, single-storey stone building combines handcrafted, made-to-measure furniture in local, natural, tactile materials such as travertine, oak and walnut, with high-end design pieces by Molteni and Fritz Hansen, as well as lighting by Davide Groppi and Vibia. The result is a deeply comfortable, sophisticated, sleek interior that expertly blends form with function. Every convenience has been thought of, including a prep kitchen and separate pantry.

Outside, the design is led by the landscape, with an ancient Mediterranean oak offering shade to the dining table and the new 15 meters heated infinity pool and smaller Jacuzzi pool angled perfectly to take in the views towards the island of Giglio and the Monte Argentario peninsula. The pools' unique designs are marked out in marble - stripes for the larger one and checks for the smaller one - and together with the accompanying blue- and white-striped sunbeds and parasols, lend a modern Sixties look. 

La Marea is a breathtaking property inspired by the scale and beauty of its location. It’s a fabulous place to fill with family and friends for an indulgent stay or a small-scale private event.
