The historic villa is located in the prestigious area of Poggio Imperiale in Florence, a short distance from the famous Villa Medicea and about 4 km from the International School of Florence, immersed in the enchanting hills that offer an oasis of peace and tranquility.
This stately residence, presumably dating back to the fifteenth century, boasts an internal surface area of about 600 square meters and is part of a large former convent, witness to centuries of history. Following the transformation of its original religious function into residential, the building was divided into several residential units. A careful restoration has allowed us to preserve many original architectural elements, such as the vaulted ceilings, the ancient stone fireplaces and the frescoes, carefully restored in homage to the external fountain by Buontalenti.
The residence is spread over four levels, expertly distributed to ensure privacy and comfort.
On the ground floor there is a bright living area divided into three large rooms. On one side there is a guest bathroom and a laundry room, while on the opposite side there is access to the kitchen with pantry, the dining room and the stairwell. The dining area opens onto the garden, offering the possibility of fully enjoying the outdoor space.
Going down to the basement, once used as cellars, today we find a private gym, a guest bedroom with en-suite bathroom and rooms characterized by suggestive exposed brick vaults, evidence of the ancient intended use.
Going up from the ground floor, halfway up the stairs, you access a bedroom with private bathroom. Continuing on the first floor you enter the most elegant and private part of the villa: A master area consisting of a bedroom with bathroom and walk-in closet, a living room with fireplace and, via a corridor, you reach the main suite with large en-suite bathroom and wardrobe. An internal staircase finally leads to the attic, where an additional bedroom with bathroom and walk-in closet has been created.
The private garden, of approximately 2,500 square meters, is completely fenced and offers absolute privacy. With attention to the smallest details, it hosts a splendid designer swimming pool made of pietra serena with a solarium area and an outdoor area equipped with a kitchen, perfect for outdoor lunches and dinners in total relaxation.
Among the prestigious elements of the garden, the original sixteenth-century fountain designed by the architect Bernardo Buontalenti stands out, inspired by the nymphaeums of the Roman era, flanked by two marble busts.
This exclusive property is completed by a convenient internal elevator and a parking area with four parking spaces, also equipped with a column for charging electric vehicles, ideal for those who want to combine elegance and sustainability.
In a strategic and private position, a few kilometers from the historic heart of Florence, this luxury residence represents a perfect combination of history, elegance and tranquility, ideal for those who want to live immersed in the timeless beauty of the Florentine countryside.
