Firenze, Tuscany

Reference: RLHP-T3672. Set in the Florentine hills, this independent 350 sqm residence arranged over three levels combines understated Tuscan elegance with the comfort of a prestigious home. The property offers three generous bedrooms and three bathrooms, including a principal suite with en-suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe, a further double bedroom and a single bedroom. Its living spaces include a bright reception entrance, a monumental sitting room with exposed stone arches and period fireplace opening onto the dehor, and a liveable kitchen with wood-fired oven, large pantry and bespoke cabinetry overlooking the garden. A cellar and central methane heating complete the interiors. Protected by the Soprintendenza per i Beni Architettonici, the building originated in the 18th century as the monumental stables of a noble villa, became a convent in the 19th century and was divided into three prestigious apartments in the 20th century. A private electric gate leads along a 400-metre tree-lined drive. More than 8,000 sqm of private parkland, with woodland and a productive olive grove supplied by an artesian well, surrounds the residence. The 600 sqm private garden features a courtyard, pergola, second vehicular access and parking for three cars. A panoramic terrace and exclusive pool area, currently subject to a renovation project with contemporary steel formwork structures, enjoy open views of Florence's Duomo. Florence's historic centre, Careggi, Fiesole, Amerigo Vespucci International Airport, Santa Maria Novella station and the A1 motorway are all within easy reach, respectively about 25, 8, 20, 20, 25 and less than 20 minutes by car.
