Montevarchi

Montevarchi is a town in Tuscany's Valdarno, in the province of Arezzo, set on the plain of the Arno where the river valley opens toward the hills of Chianti to the west. It has a long-standing local market tradition and a compact historic centre with churches, palazzi and a riverside setting that gives it a practical, lived-in character rather than a tourist one. Property here tends to appeal to those wanting everyday Tuscan town life, with larger centres such as Florence and Arezzo within reach by road and rail.
