Villa description
This luxury property is located in the centre of Tuscany in
the Castelfiorentino area and is perfect for those wanting
to relax in the Tuscan countryside
and visit the key tourist centres of Florence, Pisa, Siena,
Lucca and Monteriggioni.
Our property was part of the old tenement of the Marquis
Gelli. It is located on a hilltop with a 360° view of the
typical Tuscan landscape of smooth hills, covered
in vineyards and olive trees, variegated fields and cultivated valleys. The view is breathtaking and inspiring.
The building was originally built as a forge but has now
been completely reborn as a splendid independent villa (300
m² in size) with approximately 7500 m² of garden, suitable
as children's playground.
In the lower part of garden, there is our wide swimming
pool.
If you exit from the upper part of the Villa,
you will sure remain surprised to find a natural pond
inhabited by our swans
and ducks, suitable for sport fishing
On the banks of the lake, in the garden, there is a quaint
wooden gazebo with chairs and tables,
and a stone barbecue just perfect for enjoy dinner in the
setting sun. A bit further, there are
paddocks with horses, very actractive for children,
and you may have luck to see flying peacocks.
Upon arrival you will be greeted with a snack of "bruschetta" (toasted bread with olive oil) and local wine.
We will also provide you with
a little supply of food (including wine and oil of our
production).
The parking is close to the villa; we will provide you with a remote control to open the gate.
The owners who live in the property as well, will be pleased to suggest you sightseeing tours, excursions in the surroundings and good restaurants of course! The owners are extremely friendly and polite and will assure you utmost comfort and satisfaction. It is preferable to rent the property
in exclusive manner, to one customer,
who can be a family or a group of friends,
of at least 6 people.
