Description
A spectacular villa in the most coveted area of Florence, Marignolle, a villa that in its uses represents an exceptional example of versatility for those looking for luxury in its most classic declination. In fact, a number of units with 3 separate entrances lend themselves to more housing solutions; surrounded by a garden of about 5,000 square meters, the property represents an oasis just a few minutes from the city, overlooking the hills and the Bellosguardo Tower.
The villa, which was part of the adjacent Medicean villa of Marignolle, has undergone a complete and high quality restoration; a portion of which can still be customised: annexed to the main villa or vice versa separated with access from an external staircase to make it a guest apartment. The property currently consists of 4 independent apartments, two of which can be re-joined with a minimal wall variation, bringing the main villa to approximately 580sqm.
In the large main apartment of about 380sqm we have on the ground floor a large kitchen, a staff room with bathroom and laundry, as well as a TV room, a guest bathroom, a study and a large living room with cross vaults, fireplace, and separate dining area; and upstairs the master suite with walk-in closet and its bathroom, plus two bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. An internal courtyard enclosed by crenellated walls and paved with a wooden deck and a splendid stone well, accessible from the lounge and the kitchen, represents a sheltered outdoor space to be enjoyed even in winter.
On the other side of the living room, a splendid well-kept lawn gives access via a large external staircase to a second apartment of about 200sqm which offers two more bedrooms, two bathrooms, living room, kitchen and sitting room, or can be reunited with the main villa.
A second building of about 130sqm on the other side of the lawn is a third unit in its own right: housed in an ancient chapel from the 1200s dedicated to Gino Capponi, it has been redesigned and decorated by Riccardo Barthel and features a living area, a kitchen and a bathroom on the ground floor, as well as a bedroom with bathroom upstairs. A fourth large apartment under the large lawn of the villa with an independent entrance offers a living room with kitchenette, a bedroom, a bathroom and a laundry area, lending itself to multiple uses. An approved project to build a swimming pool, home automation and the level of finish of the renovation, as well as all the furnishings included in the sale, represent an important plus of this magnificent property.
