A tree-lined path through an oak forest leads to this majestic property of about 2000 sq.m, featuring a villa dating back to the late 1500s, along with other residential units and agricultural buildings that form a small hamlet. The villa, from the late 16th century and belonging to a noble Florentine family for centuries, has a rectangular floor plan. The ground floor offers expansive living rooms and a dining area overlooking the gardens to the south, as well as a kitchen, laundry room, and other service areas.
On the first floor, there’s a second kitchen, additional service rooms, large bedrooms, and two bathrooms. The second floor hosts the main sleeping quarters, including five bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a splendid panoramic loggia with breathtaking views. The original cellars occupy the villa’s basement.
The property also includes a 17th-century private chapel and additional buildings: a caretaker’s house adjacent to the villa’s ground level, two farmhouses partly dedicated to residential and partly to agricultural use, a barn, and other farm buildings.
The estate is set on an extensive three-tiered terrace with a magnificent Italian garden featuring a central circular water basin, adorned with hanging gardens, boxwood hedges, an original orchard, niches, and 16th-century statues. Not far from the villa is the spring that supplies water for the garden, preserving both the original water basin and stone benches used as a frigidarium. Nearby is the “burraia,” the ancient building for making and storing butter.
The sale includes 24 hectares (59 acres) of land, mostly divided into olive groves, pastures, and woodland.
