In a quiet rural setting only a 20 minute drive to beautiful Florence and a nice 2 kilometer walk from the shops and restaurants of Barbarino di Mugello, lies this historic, patrician Tuscan villa from the 16th and 18th centuries. This is a perfect place for family holidays and special events, weddings, birthdays, and small groups of friends or scholars, looking for a base to explore the Tuscan countryside and the wonders of Florence. You are also close to Siena, Lucca, San Gimignano, and so many other places to fill your days.
That is, unless you want to enjoy living as an Italian aristocrat in the elegance of this special and comfortable country manor, large enough to comfortably sleep a family or group of up to 24 persons. The Villa comes with a cook and gardener who will be pleased to look after you, the garden, and even prepare your meals upon request. You will enjoy dining under the Pergola, reading by the pool, strolling through the garden, or walking in the cyprus and olive laden countryside. Welcome to Tuscany at its best.
This historic Villa was designed for gracious living and entertaining. There are 12 bedrooms and 7 1/2 bathrooms on three floors. The bedrooms are spacious, light-filled, and tastefully decorated. There 6 double rooms with large beds, three twin bedded rooms, and three single rooms. All the bathrooms are large and have been modernized. Each has a large bath-tub, a douche, and lovely Italian tiles. In winter, only 6 bedrooms are available.
There are numerous salons and living rooms for relaxing together or in private. There is a small kitchen on the first floor, and a large, professional size kitchen on the entry level. And of course, there is the garden, and the terrace. There is a pergola where you will enjoy dining in the shade, or in the evening by candle-light. Outdoor dining will be a special treat, as the property comes with a cook who specializes in local specialties. You will enjoy shopping with her and planning your meal.
Other than visiting the Tuscany's cities of art, you will find designer outlet shopping nearby, horse-riding, tennis, fishing and swimming at the nearby lake (when you tire of the pool).
