Villa Celsi

Restored Historic Residence Minutes from Central Florence

Set in the Florentine hills just south of the city, an elegant historic residence located only a few minutes from the historic centre of Florence, offering an unusual combination of privacy, architectural character and immediate access to the city.

The property occupies the ground floor of an important historic villa and has been completely and meticulously restored, with particular attention given to preserving the original architecture while introducing a sophisticated contemporary interior design.

The interiors are defined by generous proportions, high ceilings and impressive reception rooms, creating the sense of space expected from a noble Florentine residence. Historic features sit comfortably alongside carefully selected modern finishes, bespoke furnishings and a refined contemporary aesthetic, resulting in a home that feels both timeless and entirely suited to modern living.

The restoration has been carried out to a notably high standard, making the property particularly attractive to buyers seeking a turnkey residence close to Florence without the need for further renovation or substantial works.

Outside, the residence benefits from a beautiful private Italian garden, mature planting and its own olive grove, providing attractive areas for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxation while retaining the character of the surrounding Tuscan landscape.

Also included is an independent atelier and custodian’s house, with two separate entrances and considerable flexibility of use. It could serve as guest accommodation, a private studio, home office, staff quarters or an independent residential space.

The property is further complemented by a private garage, extensive cellars and useful ancillary areas.

Despite its peaceful setting among historic villas, olive groves and the Florentine hills, one of Villa’s greatest advantages is its proximity to Florence. The historic centre is only minutes away, making it possible to enjoy the privacy and atmosphere of a country residence while remaining exceptionally close to the city’s restaurants, shops, cultural landmarks and international connections.

The Villa represents a rare opportunity to acquire a fully restored historic residence with contemporary interiors, private gardens and substantial additional spaces in one of the most convenient and sought-after locations surrounding Florence.
