Maison Rurale à Bagno A Ripoli

Ancient Watchtower with Private Village and Pool among the Hills of Florence
Description
The architectural complex is arranged as a true private village composed of four distinct housing units, developed around a medieval historic core. The Main Villa of approximately 349 sqm is the main building and extends over multiple levels, preserving unique historical details. On the ground floor, access is through an elegant entrance leading to a traditional kitchen, formal dining room, spacious reception lounge, laundry area, one bedroom, and three bathrooms. Upstairs, the sleeping area houses three bedrooms, including a suggestive mezzanine room, and an additional bathroom. The basement level features a summer room with a bathroom, ideal as a wellness area, and magnificent original stone cellars. The barn of about 142 sqm is an elegant independent guesthouse. The upper floor is a bright open-plan space with large windows, exposed ceiling beams, and a fully equipped kitchen. On the lower floor are three bedrooms and a bathroom, with direct access to the private garden. The first Apartment of about 54 sqm is a cozy independent two-room unit with a kitchen, master bedroom, and bathroom, perfect for guests or staff. The second Apartment of approximately 100 sqm is a charming two-level residence that includes a kitchen, living area, two bedrooms, a bathroom, and a useful attic space.
External Spaces
The property is immersed in a park of about 5,000 sqm entirely enclosed, ensuring complete privacy. The garden, laid out on natural terraces, hosts a splendid panoramic pool located at the lower level. Adjacent to the pool, a stone cabana offers the ideal space for outdoor meals and shaded relaxation areas. The estate also features convenient driveway access, several private parking spaces, and a service shed of about 30 sqm.
Condition and Finishes
While the barn has been recently renovated, the main Villa and the two apartments retain their authentic character and require interior modernization. This presents an exceptional opportunity to personalize a historic residence with luxury finishes.
Potential Uses
The configuration of multiple units makes the property perfect both as a multi-family residence and as an investment for high-profile hospitality.
Location
Situated in a commanding position just 15 km from Florence’s city center, the property offers the perfect balance between the tranquility of the Tuscan countryside and proximity to the city. Its strategic location allows reaching museums, international schools, and premium services within just 20 minutes, ensuring impeccable logistics for those who wish to enjoy the prestige of the Florentine hills without foregoing urban convenience.
