Trophy Estate Set in the Tuscan Hills Overlooking Florence, Italy
Offering breathtaking views of Florence, the Italian villa is located close to Fiesole, an exclusive area in Tuscany where the noble families of Florence built their countryside villas during the 16th and 17th centuries.
This historic property was built by a famous Swiss architect and painter in the late 1800s, and was finished in the Renaissance style in the early 1900s.
The trophy estate consists of a main Italian villa and a guest house, each with its own entrance from either side of the 2.47 acre property, which is enclosed by thick walls ensuring total privacy.
The main Italian villa offers 11,840 square feet of interior space, with 6 bedrooms, several formal reception rooms, and lovely period detail throughout, seen in the grand staircase, coffered ceilings, and original fireplaces.
Amenities include a wine cellar, billiards room, and a beautifully preserved antique library.
The basement area has the potential to be converted into a home cinema and a wellness suite with an indoor pool, featuring a loggia and terrace with 360-degree views over the city of Florence.
The second villa offers a further 3 bedrooms, featuring living spaces with fine period detailing and terraces overlooking panoramic views.
With its proximity to — and stunning over — the Cradle of the Renaissance the Italian villa presents an incredible opportunity for a trophy home in Tuscany, Italy, just 5.5 miles from Florence.
