This recently restored historic mansion house sits nestled into the hillside just 15 minutes from central Florence. The views from the property are breathtakingly panoramic including the rolling hills of the Chianti and the skyline of Florence with its Brunelleschi Duomo. The property is currently used as one single private residence, however it can also be sub-divided into three apartments with minimal work required.
The Villa
The main building has approximately 1000 m2 of floor area spread over four floors with the majority of rooms benefitting from a south facing exposure. A wealth of impressive features can be found throughout including original 17th century frescoes painstakingly uncovered by the current owner, terracotta flooring, chestnut beamed ceilings, pietra serena architraves and stairways and grandiose fireplaces.
The ground floor provides spacious reception rooms and to the first and second floors one finds a total of seven bedrooms and four bathrooms. The top floor 'tower room' has been converted into the most wonderful study although the stunning views will surely distract all but the most diligent of students. A private chapel leads off the first floor of the villa with garden access.
Annexes & Secondary Accommodation
Within the grounds there are four structures currently used for agricultural purposes totalling a floor area of 350 m2. Should one require these structures could be restored to create additional accommodation.
Gardens & Land
A total of 8 hectares of land accompany the property which are primarily laid to olive groves. The 2500 m2 of terraced gardens leading off the main residence provide a wonderful position from which the views can be enjoyed.
Location
The property is located just 10 minutes from a lively market town where a full range of services such as a supermarket, restaurants and shops can be found and within 15 minutes one arrives in either Bagno Ripoli, another lively suburb of Florence or central Florence itself. Florence airport can be reached in 30 minutes and Pisa airport in 1 hour.
