About this property

VILLA LIZ, private pool, private hot tub, park fenced, close to Florence

Villa LIZ with pool and whirlpool at the heart of Tuscany, surrounded by a large forested park – ideal for a quiet holiday amidst nature

The beautiful, independent villa with a private pool and a whirlpool lies at the heart of Tuscany, close to Florence, at 470 metres above sea level.

The villa provides a total living space of 140 m², with three elegant bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, a big living room and a kitchen. From the main entrance, you enter the big living room on the left, with antique sofas, a fireplace, satellite TV and a games table, as well as an extendable dining table by the stone wall. Next to the living room there is the kitchen, equipped with an electric oven, a stove with an electric ring and four gas rings, an extractor fan, a sink, dishwasher, fridge with freezer compartment and access to one of the loggias. To the right of the main entrance there is a sliding door opening into a bedroom suitable for the disabled. It has an ensuite bathroom with a washbasin, WC, bidet and floor-level shower. The utility room with a washing machine is also on the ground floor. Opposite the main entrance there are stairs made of wood and wrought iron, with 15 steps, leading to the first floor. On the left side there is a large, elegant bedroom (20 m²) with antique furniture and its own bathroom with a window, shower, washbasin, bidet and WC. On the right side there is a further elegantly decorated bedroom (28m²) with antique furniture and a little work area. There is access to a big bathroom with a window, corner bath, bidet, washbasin and WC.

Outside there are two loggias. The first measures 25 m² and provides access to the kitchen. It has an antique wood-burning stove and is furnished with a table and chairs. As it has lighting, it is ideal for dining outdoors. Just 2m from the loggia, along the way to the house (suitable for wheelchair users), there is the barbecue with a sink, worktop and grill. The second 25m² loggia was recently fully glazed, so it can also be used during the colder months of the year. It has heating and boasts a cosy whirlpool with five seats, chromotherapy and music – enjoy romantic evenings with candlelight and a great view of the Valle del Casentino. The big pool (5 x 12 m) with Roman steps is 30m from the main entrance to the house. It has a shower also suitable for the disabled. Recently guests will also find a beautiful whirlpool. The sunny terrace around the pool offers a gazebo, sofas, a games table, sun loungers, deckchairs, chairs and parasols. From here you can enjoy a wonderful view of the Poppi castle and Sacro Monte de la Verna. Opposite the pool there is a playground for children and adults with a table tennis table. The site includes a park with centuries-old oak, chestnut, stone oak, acacia and pine trees, surrounding guests with colours, fragrances and fruits at any time of year and where you can feel like a true part of nature. If you cross the park, where you may encounter wild rabbits, squirrels, owls and buzzards, you arrive at the villa, which owing to its location offers a view of landscapes that appear as paintings: the pilgrimage destination della Verna in the east, the medieval castle of Poppi in the west. The Pratomagno mountain chain in the south and the millennia-old forest Foreste Casentinesi, now a national park, in the north.

The past and the present meet here and allow guests to experience nature in harmony with the manmade. The owners welcome guests with their specialities on arrival and prepared once a week. Within 3-6 km, the owner’s family offer the following properties that may be of interest to you: 1122688 also in Poppi (about 3 km away), 398215 in Poppi (about 3 km away), 875978 in Pratovecchio (ca. 6 km away) and 1005503 in Pratovecchio (ca. 5 km away).

The Adriatic coast is about 90 minutes away by car, the Tyrrhenian Sea about two hours. You can also swim in the lake 1.5 km from the centre of Pratovecchio, or in the Arno River. You can go on trips to the zoo at Poppi, the pilgrimage church della Verna, the Camaldoli hermitage and the Foreste Casentinesi National Park. Florence is an hour’s drive away, Arezzo 40 minutes and Siena 90 minutes. From Arezzo you can take the express train to Rome in just an hour and five minutes, so day trips are possible.

"Fino ad oggi avevo visitato la Toscana, ma nel Casentino ci lasci il cuore. Una casa fantastica, in un luogo fantastico, immersa in un bosco "incantato" luogo perfetto per passare una vacanza da ricordare, con tutti i confort, adatta alle famiglie e non solo - parco attrezzato con giochi per piccoli e grandi (ping-pong/piscina/palestra) Poppi e'' alle porte del Parco Nazionale Foreste Casentinesi - a poca distanza da luoghi fantastici per chi ama la natura e la montagna e circondato da borghi medievali e città d''arte. Proprietari molto gentili e disponibili che ci hanno coccolato con gustosissime e "dolci" sorprese"

About the host

Hosted by MONICA

Host profile image
Our family for over 40 years, offers hospitality in the valley of Casentino. For us it goes without saying, you have the opportunity to eat every moment of landscapes, scents, good things to eat, such as pasta made with our own hands ... real moments that we hope that you will always remember to enjoy!

Why they chose this property

To be able to offer families from all over the world the joy of stopping in a place steeped in Etruscan, Romanesque, medieval history immersed in silence but one step away from the village, we believe it is a great privilege for what it represents, namely: greatest wealth!

What makes this property unique

We think that the holiday should both combine the rest of mind and body, and the discovery of new places and cultures.

The location of Villa LIZ seems born to pursue all this: immersed in the quiet and equipped with every comfort .... a short distance from the historic center and 1/2 hours from the main Italian cities: Florence, Siena, Arezzo , Rome...

What do you want more? The pleasure of getting to know each other?

Monica, the older sister will welcome you and the whole family will make you feel at home!
