DESCRIPTION

Marvelous and truly unique villa on the first hills of Florence, where every detail has been rigorously thought out and is in harmony with each other. Maximum comfort, large spaces, finishes in marble and precious woods, latest technologies and custom-made furniture by great Italian masters, in addition to the beauty of the colourful and fragrant garden which also houses a beautiful mosaic swimming pool – these are the main features of this dream house.

Location

At the gates of the historic center, near Porta Romana and Piazzale Michelangelo, in one of the most exclusive areas of Florence. An ideal area for those who want to enjoy life just outside the city thanks to the gardens and slightly hilly position, but at the same time being only 5 minutes from the historic city center and having all the services at hand.

Description

The main entrance to the villa through an armoured door at the back leads to a large entrance hall with a majestic staircase with wooden steps and wrought iron railing embellished with a large window decorated with lilies. Ground floor, enriched by classic-style arches and boiserie, completely dedicated to a living area – TV and relaxation area, reading area and dining area with access to the porch always thought in the way to enjoy an outdoor lunch or dinner with a wonderful view of the center of Florence. To complete the level a large kitchen equipped with a large fridge for wines as well as all the other necessary appliances, with an independent entrance from outside for greater comfort and staff, a large closet compartment, two bathrooms for guests and a guest suit with its own en-suite bathroom. In the less visible part there is also a comfortable wooden staircase but less important that connects all the floors of the house.

Going up the majestic staircase from the hall you reach the first floor totally dedicated to the sleeping area of the owners, on the sides there are two bedrooms for the children, each with a double bed, its own en-suite bathroom and wardrobe. While the central section is dedicated to the master suite of over 100sqm, double wardrobe (for husband and wife), large bathroom with tub and shower, bedroom with custom-made wardrobes along the entire length, chilling area and finally a study that is separated from the bedroom by a beautiful wooden door decorated with lilies and which can also be accessed from the hall. From here you can also go out onto the beautiful terrace overlooking the Duomo, where it is pleasant to practice yoga, read a book or spend some relaxing moments.

The third floor is made up of an open space and is currently divided into three parts – the central part with access to the pocket terrace is designed as a bar, TV area on one side and a SPA area on the other. At the service of this level a closet and a bathroom, and it is easy to convert this floor into a further bedroom with its own outdoor space. While the underground level houses the service part and boasts an independent entrance from the outside – area for the service person consisting of a large bedroom and bathroom, large laundry with professional equipment, boiler area and closet, as well as ample space dedicated to wall cabinets.

External and closed garage has space for 3 cars and has the part for a technical room serving the pool.

Outdoor spaces

Villa triumphs in the owned land over 6000 square meters, where a beautiful Italian garden has been created with colourful patches of flowers, hedges and centuries-old plants such as oaks, olive trees, maritime pines and cypresses. In the position not to be glimpsed by anyone, there is a beautiful mosaic swimming pool with salt water with a relaxation area and above the garage a paved terrace with a metal pergola which in addition to offering a pleasant outdoor space offers a truly unique view of the Dome by Brunelleschi.

State and Finishes

Both internally and externally the property is in excellent condition thanks to the continuous maintenance by the owners. During the works finished in 2012, were used only the highest quality materials such as marble, precious woods; the house offers every comfort such as centralized air conditioning, underfloor heating, automated blinds, home automation and alarm. Many pieces of furniture have been made to measure, as well as decorations that show the symbol of Florence – the lily – decoration on the marble floor in entrance hall, on the first floor in wood and etc., furniture signed by great masters such as Savio Firmino.
