Magnificent Renaissance Villa Just Outside Florence, Meticulously Restored to an Exceptional Standard
Located just 10 minutes from central Florence, within a private park, this prestigious Tuscan villa stands with quiet authority amid its beautifully landscaped grounds. The elegant façade dates back to the 17th century, commissioned by one of Florence’s historic ruling families, and today harmoniously blends original period features with refined contemporary comforts suited to modern living.
Main Villa
The entrance is through a cloistered courtyard, an architectural feature that immediately conveys the heritage and grandeur of the residence, while offering a naturally shaded setting for outdoor living and dining during the warmer months.
The villa is arranged over three principal floors, connected by an ornate stone and gilt staircase as well as a lift. The property offers approximately 1,800 sqm of internal space, with formal reception rooms on the ground floor and bedroom suites alongside additional living areas on the upper level.
The principal rooms are distinguished by generous ceiling heights, remarkable frescoes, painted and coffered ceilings, and majestic fireplaces, all preserved with notable care. Bathrooms throughout the villa are finished to an exceptional standard, combining quality materials with spacious proportions. Each floor is also equipped with kitchen facilities, ensuring both practicality and independence of use.
The uppermost floor provides additional accommodation, well-suited for children or staff, and connects to the rear of the clock tower, a defining architectural focal point of the façade.
At lower ground level, the villa reveals a more intimate atmosphere, with vaulted ceilings and cobbled flooring, ideal for informal dining and entertaining. This level also includes wine cellars and fitness facilities.
A comprehensive restoration completed in 2001 has ensured an exceptional standard throughout, preserving over 400 years of architectural heritage while introducing discreet modern enhancements. The result is a residence of rare character and enduring prestige within Tuscany.
Gardens and Grounds
The estate extends across approximately 12 hectares, enveloping the villa in a varied and harmonious landscape. The grounds comprise manicured gardens, olive groves, arable land, and areas of parkland, alongside a swimming pool and a tree-lined avenue that enhances the sense of arrival and privacy.
Additional Accommodation
Within the estate are three further residences, offering a combined internal area of approximately 1,000 sqm. Each has been restored to a high standard, providing flexible accommodation for guests, staff, or extended family. These properties are also available for purchase.
