ABOUT ME

Tirisondola is an estate on a hilltop next to the medieval city of Chiusdino

Hi There, I’m Thomas!

AN AMERICAN IN TUSCANY

When I first purchased this estate in 1983 I was welcomed by rats, scorpions and a beautifully dilapidated farm ruin, which has since been transformed into Tirisondola, a vacation home with 3 apartments.

There were no windows, doors, or roofs on the structures- let alone water, electricity or telephone lines to the property. Still, I was mesmerized, and knew immediately that this collapsed gem would one day be my home. I am a father of four and thirty years ago began my lifelong adventure on top of one of the most beautiful rolling hills of Tuscany.

TUSCAN ART CENTER

A place for visual and performing arts

Tuscan Art Center or TAC for short consist of a well-rounded ceramic studio, including an extraordinary wood-burning kiln. Additionally, the old barn has been transformed into a ceramics museum showcasing the intricate, ancient tiles that I have been collecting all my life.
