Élégante Propriété De Campagne Sur Les Collines Près De Florence

In the heart of the hills surrounding Florence, near the municipality of Bagno a Ripoli, stands an elegant country estate, fully renovated, blending harmoniously into the typical Tuscan landscape, characterized by cypresses, olive trees, and lush vegetation. The property consists of a farmhouse complex with its original core dating back to the 14th century, situated halfway up a slope overlooking the valley, offering a unique panoramic view of the city of Florence, featuring Brunelleschi’s famous dome prominently in the skyline. The complex, extending over a total area of more than 500 sqm, is divided into multiple interconnected buildings, each with independent access. The interior layout is designed to offer spacious, functional areas, with a living area well-separated from the sleeping area. On the lower floor, the main entrance is preceded by an arched loggia, shielded by a large painted iron glass window, granting access to the living zone. A comfortable staircase leads to the upper floor, where the living rooms, separated but interconnected through a wide opening with exposed wooden beams, create a sense of visual and spatial continuity. The generously sized masonry kitchen is separated by a small passage, enriched by a service area spread over two levels, including a laundry, closet, bathroom, and a TV room. An adjoining building, next to the main entrance, serves as guest accommodation, featuring two bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms. This structure connects through a small external courtyard to the old granary, which has been restored and transformed into a spacious double-height area, completed with a large veranda, ideal for hosting outdoor events and gatherings. Additionally, a recent annex, crafted with high-quality materials, has been designed as a further extension of the villa. Comprising a spacious living area with an open kitchen, a bedroom, and a bathroom, this residential unit is completely independent, enjoying direct access to the garden and external courtyard. The property’s exterior is enhanced by an infinity pool, equipped with a counter-current swimming system, relaxation area, outdoor shower, and a hot tub, all set within a natural context of great privacy and beauty. The surrounding land, extending over 2.5 hectares, is mainly cultivated with an olive grove of approximately 900 trees and includes a small vineyard. The property is accessible via a private drivable road, secured by a gate, with ample open parking for 2-3 cars and additional spaces for other vehicles. The estate is completed by large cellars, an outdoor oven, a barbecue area, and a greenhouse, enriching this splendid complex even further. Heating is provided by a pellet boiler, allowing the fuel to be loaded once a year, ensuring efficient and sustainable energy management. This residence, with its extraordinary panoramic location, high-quality finishes, and space distribution, represents an ideal solution for those seeking a luxury home in Tuscany, immersed in nature and a short distance from the city of Florence.
