The Genesis of Tuscany Now

Tuscany Now was founded in 1990 by Simon and Barbara Ball with a portfolio that included a single house, their family home just outside Florence. Our ‘family’ has grown to include a staff of 11 based in London and the owners of the 200 properties presented on this website who entrust us with their valuable homes. All of us are devoted to providing you with the ideal setting for your stay in the most beautiful country in the world - Italy.

We only do Italy - and we do it very, very well

We take a very focused approach to our business. Our portfolio is restricted to properties that are made available to us on an exclusive basis, that meet out standards of quality and offer the features we consider essential - including competent and friendly caretakers and staff. We inspect each property regularly to ensure proper through agencies, ensures seamless logistics and shared standards of service and hospitality. Our sales staff is composed entirely of Italians or Italophiles who have lived in Italy, and who know the properties and their surrounding areas first-hand.

Talk to us - let us use our 20 years of experience

We encourage you to be just as picky as we are in making your selection. The best way of finding just the right spot is by talking to us. We simply cannot stress this enough. By telling us about yourself, your group and how you would like to spend your time in Italy, we can apply all our knowledge and experience towards helping you pinpoint the ideal property.
