Description
On the slopes of the Settignano hill, an imposing gate opens onto the avenue that climbs between roses and olive trees and leads to an imposing complex that consists of an ancient villa dating back to 1400 flanked by an outbuilding built in 1990 as a lemon house for the main body. Parking the car and entering this historic building you perceive not only its history but also that of the family who lived there with love and warmth. The main villa, of 774 square meters, is spread over 3 levels in addition to the basement where the cellar is located. The property has a large loggia characterized by columns and details in pietra serena, above which there is a large terrace of about 33 square meters. On the ground floor there are various reception rooms, the study, the television room, the dining room and the kitchen in addition to the accessory rooms; finally, on the first floor there are the bedrooms and bathrooms. The main building retains the historical characteristics of the era in which it was built even if the interventions of its owners have been able to adapt it wisely and tastefully to their own living needs. Each room has large windows that open onto the garden with glimpses that seem like beautiful natural paintings. The annex, characterized by large and bright rooms with large windows that make it more modern and contemporary, boasts a beautiful distribution between the living area and the sleeping area. It is spread over 2 levels plus a cellar and large garage located in the semi-basement. The property is characterized by a large living room, dining room, kitchen, laundry room, veranda; the house is completed by 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. The two units are both category A/7 and have landscape restrictions even though they are not bound by the superintendency. The entire property is surrounded by greenery and surrounded by cypress trees that create a private and exclusive context, a beautiful water pool of about 4 * 3 surrounded by sandstone and equipped with a swimming pool system offers moments of refreshment and a bucolic view of the garden. This stunning property has also been a historic holiday destination for important figures in the Anglo-Saxon cultural scene and today lends itself to being a prestigious home immersed in a beautiful park and very close to the city centre.
