Set in a very panoramic and well exposed location in the scenic Florentine countryside, this historic villa was built atop the remains of a medieval watchtower, just 3 km from basic amenities and a short 20-minute drive from the A1 highway junction of Florence. The property underwent meticulous renovation from 2014 to 2018, preserving its original charm and capturing a unique atmosphere where time appears to stand still. The 5.6-ha woodland surrounding the property ensures privacy and quiet. Main services are available in the nearby town (3km; 5'), and the historic center of Florence is less than a half-hour drive away. The proximity to the A1 highway also makes it easy to travel throughout italy, while Tuscany's most famous art cities can be reached in just over an hour (Castellina in Chianti, Arezzo, Cortona, Montepulciano, Pienza...). The villa (548 sqm - 5,896 sqft, 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms) is on three staggered levels, with direct access from both lower floors: - Basement: storage room, cellar, bedroom, independent living room with kitchen opening onto a charming panoramic loggia; - Ground floor: living room, dining room, office space, spacious kitchen with handmade terracotta floors and three bedrooms with private bathroom; - First floor: bedroom with en-suite bathroom and exit to a panoramic loggia overlooking the valley. A short distance from the property are two storages (24 sqm - 258 sqft in total) and an old ruined barn (44 sqm - 473 sqft) that could be restored and converted into a small dining/living area. The restoration focused on maintaining and respecting key features, such as the stone flooring, chestnut wood windows, tower, cellar, ceiling beams, brick vaults, stone walls, and a grand fireplace. The artistic touch extends to the furniture and spatial design, making the villa truly distinctive. Spread across three levels, it offers comfort and ample space. The property boasts updated systems, underfloor heating, solar panels and wood-burning boiler for hot water, all for a significant improvement in energy efficiency. The garden entrance features a historic tank decorated with the statue of a hog, the staple animal of the Tuscan hills and forests.
