The villa and its Garden.
The villa has been recently completely renovated by the owner to the highest standards, maintaining all its original features and charm. The thorough attention to details as well as the exquisitely appointed furniture have contributed into creating a very special space that perfectly blends with the villa’s ancient structure.
The magnificent 20 hectares park surrounding the villa is full of beautiful paths across olive groves, fruit trees and flowers. The private lake, that comes with a small wooden house is perfect for meditating and relaxing, surrounded by the “silence” of the magical nature and the company of the wild animals that may come around..
Right outside the villa’s entrance the outdoors is equipped with a shaded pergola (fully furnished) perfect for relaxing, al fresco dining or having a barbecue.. The lavish infinity style swimming pool (size 10x5 meters, 32x16 ft.) comes fully furnished with day beds, super comfortable lounges and boasts an amazing panorama with breathtaking top views on the city. The pool area is fenced and is equipped with a shower.
The cozy yet sophisticated and elegant atmosphere of the interiors, the stunning beauty of the villa’s garden & pool together with the quietness of the area, make this property a truly unique place perfect to hide away & relax, just steps away from the very best the city of Florence has to offer..
