Description
In the heart of the most authentic Tuscan countryside, where the landscape blends seamlessly with history and nature retains its timeless charm, stands this extraordinary period villa—completely independent and surrounded by a private park of approximately 5 hectares, cultivated with over 800 fully productive olive trees.
We are in Comeana, a locality within the municipality of Carmignano—a land rich in vineyards, Renaissance villas, and poetic vistas that have inspired artists and writers for centuries. It is here that this high-prestige residence takes shape, with original construction dating back to before the 1600s, bearing witness to a long and noble tradition of family legacy and territory.
The main villa still preserves all the fascination of its historical era. The elegance of the architectural forms is enriched by valuable decorative details, such as 19th-century coffered ceilings, 18th-century frescoes in the master bedroom depicting imaginary views of Comeana, and refined materials used in the main bathrooms, including onyx marble and Prato’s green serpentine marble.
Spread across multiple levels, the villa opens on the ground floor with a series of refined reception rooms with strong character: four elegant living rooms overlooking the Italian garden, a vintage-style billiard room, a cozy sitting room, a spacious eat-in kitchen, and a bright, welcoming dining room. Completing the floor are a guest bathroom, a storage room, and a truly rare gem: a consecrated private chapel, adorned with painted vaulted ceilings, artistic details, and an original altar—adding profound spiritual and historical value to the home.
The upper floor houses the sleeping quarters, comprising six generously sized bedrooms, all with high ceilings and abundant natural light. The same floor also features six attic rooms, providing additional space ideal for use as studies, wardrobes, archives, or guest rooms.
In the basement, directly set against the rocky terrain on which the villa stands, are three historic cellars with vaulted ceilings—spaces of unique charm where ancient wine vats hand-carved from pietra serena stone are preserved. These represent a priceless material heritage that speaks to the agricultural and winemaking vocation of the estate.
The property also includes the former farmer’s house, now arranged over two floors, and a barn, the third structure within the estate. These additional buildings offer multiple usage options, from guest or staff accommodation to expansion of hospitality-related activities.
The garden and outdoor spaces offer the perfect setting for this historic home. The formal Italian garden, defined by geometric hedges, gravel paths, statues, and ornamental trees, welcomes guests with grace and offers visually striking perspectives. Beyond the ornamental park, the land spans approximately 5 hectares of olive groves, not only beautifying the landscape but also representing a tangible agricultural asset.
Location:
The villa occupies a slightly elevated and dominant position over the valley, nestled in the greenery of the Comeana hills, in an exclusive and refined setting—peaceful, yet easily accessible. Its strategic location, just a short drive from Prato, Florence, and the main roadways, allows you to enjoy an oasis of tranquility without giving up the convenience of nearby services.
