Villa Firenze - Holiday Villa in Tuscany with Pool
Cottage with 4 Bedrooms, Sleeps 8, Garden, Swimming Pool
Discover the impressive fifteenth century building surrounded by a historic Italian park as you make your way up the long driveway. The villa is ideal for 8 people and can accommodate a ninth if required.
The property has 2 double bedroom and 2 further bedrooms each with 2 single beds. In total the property has 4 bathrooms, 2 of which have showers and 2 have baths. In addition there are two kitchens, a dining room and a small laundry room with a washing machine. One floor lower is the former sausage chamber with its vaulted ceiling, which now serves as the main kitchen.
The entire villa has approximately 500 m² of living space and is furnished with antique furniture. Each of the large rooms has its own unique style.
Once you pass through the wrought-iron gates, you will be guided by cypress trees which are over a century old which line the way to the villa, where an equally aged chestnut tree protectively offers shade from the sun. You will immediately be drawn to the large terrace-shaped garden, which reveals a wonderful view of the surrounding landscape.
The garden offers countless areas in which you may sunbathe or seek shelter in the shade under a tree. Scattered throughout the estate, you will find fountains with goldfish and there is, of course, a large swimming pool.
From the forecourt, you reach the inner courtyard through an arch. To the left there is a chapel and to the right a staircase which leads to the superintendent's residence.
The superintendent is in charge of keeping everything in working order on the estate, as well as the daily housekeeping in your quarters. The 100m² billiard room with 5m high ceilings act as the entrance to the apartment. From this room you can reach nearly all of the other rooms, some of which are accessible through various entrances. To the left you will find the comfortable "TV Room" and next to this is the living room, where you will find three sofas around the fireplace.
