This historic building enjoys a prime location, on an open and sunny position, within easy reach from the most important art towns in Tuscany like Florence, Lucca, Volterra, San Gimignano and Siena, as well from the main seaside resorts of Versilia such as Viareggio (39 km) and Forte dei Marmi (51 km). The property is easy accessible thanks to the vicinity to the dual carriageway Florence-Pisa-Livorno and to the international airport of Pisa, only 10 km away. The closest train station and bus stop are less than 1 km away. Also the thermal baths of San Giuliano (15’) and the golf courses in Tirrenia (18’) and San Miniato (30’) are close to the property.
Description of the buildings
The villa is composed of a main three-storey building and two two-storey wings, for a surface of about 2500 square metres.
The main entrance from the park open into a majestic hall, while the entrance from the road gives access to a wide room, which used to be a carriage hall. Still on the ground floor, preceded by a sitting room, there is a wonderful chapel.
A monumental staircase with sandstone steps and stunning balustrade with Carrara marble columns leads to the piano nobile. The second floor can be reached through another staircase.
The two-storey lateral wing looking onto the southern area of the garden, originally a loggia, currently includes a spacious room and a big bathroom with bath tub.
