Villa di Stomennano, villa in Monteriggioni, Tuscany, Italy

Villa di Stomennano is a villa in the hamlet of the same name in Monteriggioni, Tuscany. It consists of two twin rectangular buildings joined at the centre by a balustraded architrave on two columns, aligned with a long cypress avenue. A vaulted room in the right-hand building, now a cellar, is thought to have been the village's original chapel.

Stomennano is first documented in 1059, when it was recorded as the seat of a canonical community, probably fortified. It later passed to the Accarigi and then to the Griccioli family, who still own the estate. Little of the medieval layout survives; the present twin rectangular blocks linked by a balustraded architrave on two columns are later work.

The name Stomennano is recorded from 1059, when the site was a canonical community, probably fortified. The Griccioli family, who owned the estate after the Accarigi, still holds it today. In the right-hand building a vaulted room now used as a cellar is thought to have been the village's original chapel, with a nave and side chapels for altars.

The villa stands in the Stomennano hamlet of Monteriggioni, reached by a long cypress avenue aligned with the central architrave. Below the buildings, terraces hold an Italian garden with geometric flower beds, polygonal pools and a vegetable garden; behind them, a 19th-century English park with a low tower, a pond and statues. The wood now blocks the view of the former farm buildings.
