Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Set on a historic hillside estate, this home is full of charm with its beautifully preserved frescoes, wood panelling, and antique furniture. Via an ancient stone staircase, you’ll find the bedrooms, all with en-suites – one of the bedrooms has its own living room too. The outdoor space is also a highlight here – there’s 1-hectare of gardens featuring a pool and a covered veranda, and a gazebo with seating for when you want some shade. There’s also a roof terrace with panoramic views and a jacuzzi. This place really does offer the best of both worlds as it’s just a few minutes’ drive from the heart of Florence and it's in walking distance of the stunning Parco di Villa Il Ventaglio.
