Come live in a piece of history in this former monastery, which dates back to the 13th century. The villa’s ancient stone walls and its tranquil location in the Tuscan countryside might remind you of its former life for solitude and study, but it’s much too luxurious for monks nowadays, with a private pool, gorgeous furnishings, and a terraced garden. It’s a great base for exploring Tuscany, especially Florence. With three self-sufficient floors, this villa is great for a group of friends, a few small families, or anyone who wants extra privacy.
(1000 m2) This stone villa was once a monastery dating back to the 13th century, and has been carefully restored while maintaining its historic charm. The estate is on a hillside, with Florence visible in the distance, and is surrounded by fruit trees, olive groves, and oaks. There is a terraced garden, a private pool (12 x 5 m, open June through October), and a small pond, as well as a barbeque and covered table for al fresco dining. There is a small farm on the premises 100 meters from the villa, with horses, rabbits, and donkeys, as well as a vegetable garden whose products include tomatoes, cabbage, zucchini, lettuce, and eggplant, and are free for guests to use. The property owner lives onsite in a separate house 30 meters away from the villa.
